I can deal with Shabbat or Yom Kippur...but wow...was having withdrawal symptoms.
If someone says something bad about you, say something nice about them. That way, both of you would be lying.

In your heart you know WE are right and in your guts you know THEY are nuts!

I didn't really have a problem with it.  I was really busy the past few days.  I think it was a nice break.
"The Jews will eventually have to face up to what you're dealing with here.  The arabs will never love you for what good you've brought them.  They don't know how to really love.  But hate!  Oh, G-d, can they hate!  And they have a deep, deep, deep resentment because you have jolted them from their delusions of grandeur and shown them for what they are-a decadent, savage people controlled by a religion that has stripped them of all human ambition . . . except for the few cruel enough and arrogant enough to command them as one commands a mob of sheep.  You are dealing with a mad society and you'd better learn how to control it."

It wasn't too bad.  I'm not sure if the forum might be better served to stay open for gentile members.  I can understand JTF not wanting to support fellow Jews breaking the Sabbath, but I think the discipline should be left up to the individual in the end, and I don't want to see the popularity of the great forum decline among our non-Jewish members.

I was reminded of a Simpsons episode where Itchy and Scratchy are no longer amusing to the children where they suddenly all go outside, rub their eyes, and realize there's a world outside for them to enjoy and play with. I think these types of hiatuses make us to the same :)

If gentiles find these forum closures a pain, imagine being an orthodox Jew and living your life around these sabbaths and holidays! We'll live.
