Aspies For Freedom

Oh, do tell us what other fascinating tidbits of idiocy the nazifreaks are putting out these days. Are the Jews still eating Christian babies?

" With all the controversy surrounding the announcement of the result of the NJPS 2000 - 2001 (hereinafter referred to as the NJPS 2000), the bottom line consensus from a non-denominational perspective is aptly captured by Michael Steinhardt:


“… All would agree that Jews in America are demographically endangered.  In addition to the usual suspects of assimilation and intermarriage, the survey revealed that Jews in America are getting married later and having fewer children - so few that we are experiencing negative population growth … When we remove the Orthodox from the statistical equation, the picture becomes that much bleaker for those American Jews who are most at risk.  In the wake of the study, one would have hoped to find a leadership galvanized to change.  The NJPS (2000), after all, revealed palpable evidence of a crisis.  But the community largely ignored the bad news, justifying its complacency by disputing the study’s methodology …” [6]

Mr. Steinhardt’s summation is correct.

Based upon the data and the various population studies that are now available, it appears that an extraordinary disintegration of the American Jewish community is in process. There was a time when every Jew could take it for granted that he or she would have Jewish grandchildren with whom to share Seders, Sabbath and other Jewish moments. However, the clear data indicates that this expectation is no longer well founded. Indeed, our studies show that within a short period of time the entire complexion of the American Jewish community will be altered inexorably.


As was the case with the NJPS 1990, the NJPS 2000 targeted four key quantifiable elements of Jewish survival: marriage rates, intermarriage rates, birth rates, and levels of Jewish education. When all of these factors are tabulated and correlated, a troubling picture emerges of the future of American Jewry. Skyrocketing intermarriage rates, declining birth rates, and inadequate Jewish education continue to decimate the American Jewish people."
