Torah On One Foot / Bang It Out Protest

Don't get me wrong. I don't believe in forcing my world views on the whole world or demanding that everyone should conform to my set of values. I do believe though in reacting when someone offends me and the things i hold dear. Now bangitout.com is welcome to blend judaism with all the jokes, movies, and celebrity sightings they want but when they reduce and make a mockery of study of Torah that's where i feel it crosses the line, atleast for me personally that is. They have this section called Torah-On-One-Foot, see for yourself some examples:



  1. Megillas Esther by I. Galena Posted: 07-11-2006(Viewed 554 times)
    Haman: Kill all the Jews!
    King Achashverosh: Kill all the Jews!
    Queen Esther shows some leg
    King Achashverosh: Save all the Jews!
    Haman Dies
    THE END

  2. Jobby A. Dworken Posted: 07-11-2006(Viewed 482 times)
    Job: This just sucks. God: Yup.Get used it.Job: Waaaah.God: Cry baby.THE END

  3. Book of Jonahby S. Galena Posted: 07-11-2006(Viewed 534 times)
    Jonah Runs away
    Whale: Gulp3 days later
    Whale: Burp THE END

  4. Masechet Baba Metziaby I. Galena Posted: 07-11-2006(Viewed 540 times)
    SHIMON: That's my talis!
    LEVI: No it isnt!
    SHIMON: Yes it is!
    (200 pages of rabbinic debate)
    LEVI: Fine, take the talis, I never wanted it anyway.
    THE END

As i can only speak for myself I found these thing truly offensive. Something that i have devoted so much of my life to... for someone to act so glibly with it... i just don't like it.

I've kindly asked the moderators to remove this section from their website. Haven't heard anything from them yet.... Shout out if you agree. Peace to all. - Danny Mokhtar
