Dr Dan,
  If you have to stress how evil the history of Gentiles is, why would you continue to live in a Gentile country. Why not move to Israel?

It would be excellent to move to Israel, but some of us are tied to family here and need to still live in the exile... But it is good to educate the Jews as to why the religious Jews don't celebrate New Years or other holidays...

Ape you are correct, but so is muman. Also my Hebrew is terrible.

Secondly this is not meant to offend the christians who love us. I apologize if I offended anyone posting this link.

WAKE UP AND LIVE

WHY IS “WAKING UP” A WAY TO WISDOM?
•The struggle of life is the struggle to be awake.
•Decide that life is good. Otherwise you’ll go to sleep.
•Get the maximum out of your body. But don’t torture it either!
•Don’t miss out on life’s opportunities and pleasures by oversleeping.
•When we’re excited about a project, our creative juices and mental faculties are in full gear.
•Watch out for “zombie-ism.” Don’t walk around devoid of thoughts in your head.
•Too much sleep dulls the mind.
•Tiredness is a habit. Break it.
•Unless we take practical steps to stay awake, sleep is going to overcome us.
•Whenever you learn something new, wake up to the recognition that you were partially asleep before.
•If you learn how to live with joy, sleep vanishes.
•In the “final sleep,” what do you want inscribed?
