It also says in the Torah 'hochiah tochiah' (Lev 19, 17), roughly translated as rebuke, reprove or speak plainly to your fellow. Why would you pussy foot around people who, even if they have the best will in the world, are behaving so foolishly and dangerously?

excellent piece. One of the things I had to get used to in moving to Scottsdale in 1999, was the local brand politics..and religion. We tend to live in a bubble in communities that think like us but that doesn't exist anymore. I used to write a weekly column for the Arizona Republic and could speak my mind. these days, I would get death threats. That is one reason this site and writers like yourself are so important!
