on a completely unrelated tangent, i would like to point out that while i very often disagree with the opinions espoused in this forum by akuperma, the posts are among the most intelligent, well-reasoned and articulate posts i read on talkbacks anywhere. take a look at the remark here about first cousins; short yet comprehensive, accurate and to the point.
even though i think akuperma’s stance on Zionism, for example, is anti-Torah and dangerous for world jewry, akuperma makes the best arguments for any position. if there was a poster of the year vote, my vote would definitely be for akuperma. a good read every time.
