Have you ever boarded a train seeking a little quiet reading time, only to be disrupted by the incessant cell phone chatter of a fellow passenger? What do you do? The answer to queries like this one and many more questions of scruples are found in Randy Cohen's new book "Be Good: How to Navigate the Ethics of Everything." It's based on his years as "The Ethicist," writing for The New York Times Magazine. He began that very popular column and wrote it for 12 years. ...Cohen is a secular Jew, and not orthodox, of course. He used to be married to a famous feminist poet. The NY Times caters to its Jewish readers.
COHEN: ... Here was the question that provoked by far the most response.
A woman goes to hire a real estate agent. And she meets the guy and she thinks, Wow, he's great, he's honest, he's confident. And she goes, you are my guy, and sticks her hand out for a handshake to seal the deal. And he will not shake her hand. And she instantly understands why. She sees that, oh, he's an Orthodox Jew and there's a religious stricture against physical contact across the gender line, except for close relatives.
Her question is: Should I work with this guy? And she crystallized it beautifully. She goes: On the one hand, I truly respect religious tolerance. This does me no actual harm and it's not meant in an unkind way. On the other hand, I hold my feminist principles in as much esteem as he holds his religious principles. All I'm asking for is to be treated with the same courtesy and respect as anyone else would be, in an ordinary business deal. Hire the guy or fire the guy?
My position was fire the guy. And the way I worked towards this conclusion was by making an analogy to race. That if this person had said, I can't touch you 'cause you're black, we would not put up with that for two minutes - nor should we. And in my case, I felt that your religious values which manifested you being part of a voluntary community cannot be imposed on other people.
This is wacky Jewish advice from Jews who do not even believe in Judaism. Would anyone here really fire the agent because of his handshaking scruples?
If a Catholic or a Mormon were giving advice, I might assume that the advice is based on church teachings. Or they might explain the basis of their advice. But not Jews. Many of them like to give bad advice to non-Jews, and not explain it.
I post this because I was subjected to court-ordered bad advice from a psychologists named Ken Perlmutter. He could never explain anything he was saying. It was just his opinion. The whole field of psychology is corrupted by creeps like him.
Maybe you think that it is unfair for me to draw attention to Cohen's Jewishness when he is not really a practicing Jew. But he's the one who goes around giving bad ethical advice to everyone, and failing to explain his premises. His advice is obviously influenced by Jewish thinking. I think that it would be strange to discuss his ethical advice without mentioning the Jewish influence.

I also went through a court ordered child custody evaluation with Dr. Perlmutter. He was very overbearing, stated flatly that he had a greater influence to decide percentage of custody to one or the other parent - even more than the presiding judge. He interrupted my responses to his questions in one session approximately 28 times (I took notes) and usually making unusual transitions to an entirely different topic. My son 7, complained that Dr. Perlmutter tricked him into saying things. In response to this I asked that the next sessions with my son to be recorded. He wrote to the court that he could not record his sessions and refused to meet again.
Curiously, he didn't shake my hand on the several visits to his office, arranging for the entry and exit to be standing away from the door, near his desk looking at his paperwork and then requesting that I sit down, so that if I initiated by reaching to shake his hand it would be very awkward.
In the final meeting I left his office and and made a point to reach to shake his hand before he walked to his desk. He reluctantly did so. I wonder if this behavior is related to his Jewish culture or if he had some superiority complex or other reason to avoid this courteous behavior.
Why write so much about Gays and Jews ?
I write about Gays and Jews because they are active in the anti-family movement, both in national politics and in my local court.
Psychiatry is a Jewish hustle. They will tell you that. They have the market cornered. They can alter peoples lives and families with a flim-flam decision based really on nothing. They have it so only they can diagnose a problem, and more importantly, that only they can treat. Jews and Gays have completely taken over Hollywood and they clearly have an agenda of destroying the nuclear family (whilst we hear of child molestation after child molestation story from Hollywood..Morgan Freeman, Woody Allen, Arlen Spector, Polanski, Samuel L. Jackson, its a disgrace). It's puzzling why more Americans don't wake up to this or even notice it. Its kinda scary to how many sheep live among us.
What have the Jews and Gays that you´ve dealt with done differently than the non Jews and Gays who´s actions you´ve described ?
You´ve described everyone or almost everyone as Anti Christian, right ?
Re: Anonymous...
What Jews have said that Psychiatry is a Jewsih hustle ? Ï didn´t know that they will tell you that. How do they corner the market from the rest of the 98% of the population ?
Yeah, sometimes they are anti-Christian even if they are not Jewish or gay.
I suggest you do your own research into the psychology field and how it become so one-sided and you will find many quotes that back up my statements.
However, I will give you a quick overview of how they took over the NY Times. The NY Times like many other American newspapers were started by brilliant, hardworking European immigrants in this country. They printed real news and had real reporters and helped shape this country. When the readership got big, all the Jewish businesses would stop advertising in the papers. Eventually they would go bankrupt. At auction, Jews would buy these newspaper companies for pennies of their real worth and overnight all the Jewsih businesses would advertise again. This opened up a half century of non-stop pro leftist, pro marxist, pro jewish, anti-Chrisitian brainwashing campaign that has only gotten more and more steam. No surprise that NYC is so liberal eh?
The Class B shares provide a mechanism by which the descendants of Adolph Ochs, who purchased The New York Times newspaper in 1896, maintain control of the company by holding nearly 90 percent of this "special class of stock."[2]
N.Y. Post
Rupert Murdoch is Christian and his wife Wendi is Catholic. Rupert Murdoch goes to Church most Sundays but he hasn’t converted to Catholocism even though he was knighted by the Pope.
Since 1967, the company has been publicly traded and listed on the New York Stock Exchange by the symbol NYT. While it offers two kinds of shares of its stock, Class A and Class B, Class B shares are not publicly traded.[7] The Class B shares provide a mechanism by which the descendants of Adolph Ochs, who purchased The New York Times newspaper in 1896, maintain control of the company by holding nearly 90 percent of this "special class of stock."[2]
71% of U.S. psycholgists are NOT Jewish ! And the list of the 100 most influential psychologists in the U.S. contains 50% more non Jews than Jews.
Yes, there are lots of non-Jewish newspapermen and psychologists. Jews are only 2% of the population.
You left this part out..."The company was founded by Henry Jarvis Raymond and George Jones in
New York City. The first edition of the newspaper The New York Times, published on September 18, 1851, stated: "We publish today the first issue of the New-York Daily Times, and we intend to issue it every morning (Sundays excepted) for an indefinite number of years to come."[5]
Adolph Ochs is Jewish and was the head guy who bought the NY Times in bankruptcy court not many years later. Also, Rupert Murdoch is the New Ted Turner (who was swindled out of 80% of his wealth by Jewish gangsters at CNN which is now Ultra-Liberal) in that he is a total lapdog of Israel. He is as Jewish as one can possibly be. I believe his wife is Jewish and he is a massive donor to AIPAC. Like I said, do your research.
Yes, you'e able to state the obvious and the bizarre.
This is wacky Jewish advice from Jews who do not even believe in Judaism.
If a Catholic or a Mormon were giving advice, I might assume that the advice is based on church teachings. Or they might explain the basis of their advice. But not Jews. Many of them like to give bad advice to non-Jews, and not explain it.
Obviously, it's not "Jewish advice" it's advice from an advice columnist who's paid to give advice and write books about it. What's wacky is suggesting that a Jew who doesn't believe in Judaism is basing his advice on Judaism. He explains his advice. It's to not do business with a Jew that won't shake your hand because of his Judaism. How is this "Jewish advice" ?
It's becoming more and more difficult to even see how you're connecting dots.

I did my research. Read it. "not many yars later..45 years 1851 to 1896, right ?
Who are these Jewish gangsters ?
murdoch and his wife are not Jewish. Who besides you says that they are ?

I do have some Christian values
The honorable thing to do would have been to cancel his leftist-feminist memberships, repudiate his anti-family ideology, defend his right to grip his wife, and challenge Lee to a duel.
Wacky Christian advice from a Christian with "some Christian values"
Do your research about newspaper failures between 1893 and 1896. It wasn't some story about the Jews not advertising till 1896. That's when the depression ended and all newspapers started selling more advertsing again.
Thomson incorporated the Champion Coated Paper Company in November 1893 as newspapers reported record business disasters. With two months remaining in the year, 4,935 businesses had failed, more than twice the number that had closed in all of 1892 and well above the one-year high during the previous decade (2,853 in 1884). Recent casualties had included some paper companies in and around Hamilton.
Sir, please simply search Rupert Murdoch Jewish and see for yourself. His family married into a wealthy Jewish family. He is a massive Pro-Israel donor mainly AIPAC. The evidnece is endless. He is just another Israel firster lapdog puppet. I don't like it either, but they control all of our media...ALL OF IT!!!!! It ttok me many many years to see it and accept it. Its not easy to admit you've been duped your whole life, but it has happened. They set out to take the media over (as was well-known as the main priority of Marxist) and they have succeded.
The Depression ended in 1896????
"Who are these Jewish Gangsters"? Well for starters all the original gangs of the US were Jewish. The Bernstein brothers started the most notorious gang in American history in the Purple Gang. Lansky, Siegel, they were all Jewish. In fact, one could argue that Jews got their start in American from being gangsters. They were able to turn dirty money clean. Thats really what America is all about....turning dirty money to clean money. You go from crook to respected law abiding citizen at that point and live a life of spelndor. Again, do your research and you'll be amazed at how many wealthy in this nation got their money from shady beginnings. Of course we all know about the Kennedy's (the Mob once said that Joe Kennedy was such a crook that even the worst gangsters would blush at some his cons). The only true Americans who didn't do this were the founding fathers and the liberal media tars and feathers them at every chance they get. Dig deeper...
Are the Kennedy's Jewish too ? What about all of those gangsters with Italian names, were they Jewish ? And those Irish gangsters, Jewish as well ? There's been alot of types of gangsters. You seem to want to give all the credit to the Jews though.
Of course we all know about the Kennedy's (the Mob once said that Joe Kennedy was such a crook that even the worst gangsters would blush at some his cons).
But I was asking you, who are all the Jewish gangsters at CNN ?
No, the Kennedys are not Jewish. Jews are only 2% of the population.
The original U.S. gangsters weren't Jewish.
Well for starters all the original gangs of the US were Jewish.
As American society and culture developed, new immigrants were relocating to the United States. The first major gangs in 19th century New York City were the Irish gangs such as the Whyos and the Dead Rabbits.[20] These were followed by the Italian Five Points Gang and later a Jewish gang known as the Eastman Gang.[2
Ok, The Kennedy's aren't Jewish. Are they "liberals" ? Did they ever live in N.Y., and publish liberal articles ? Were any of them ever liberal N.Y. politicians, etc. ?
Yes, the Kennedys are liberals. They do not have much influence anymore, but they sure did damage in the past.
Yeah, the Kennedys were Catholic gangsters.
