[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It was semi-serious. Let's face it, taking lavish trips to Israel for sammy's bar mitzvah is yet simply another escalation of ostentatious and unnecessary financial consumption surrounding bar mitzvah as a status symbol. This kind of totally egocentric display of wealth is obviously the antithesis of what a bar mitvah should be all about. but I'm sure I'm talking to a wall here, eh.[/quote] Are you Jewish? Do you understand the religious significance of taking a trip to Israel for the ceremony that makes you an adult in your religion's eyes? I am thinking you're not grasping it. [/quote] But it is still spending an obscene amount of money. It if was all about the religious significance, why the lavish MTV super sweet 16 style parties that rival wedding receptions AFTER the religious ceremony?[/quote]
