[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]As an oncologist, I can tell you that your arguments about the importance of Greek and Latin on modern medical practice is laughable. Moreover, as a PK, I can tell you first-hand of [b]the contribution of ancient Hebrew to Western Civilization[/b] - for example the very concept of law derives from Hebrew. Hebrew, of course, has many more cognates that Yiddish, sounds like you need to brush up on your alphabet (a Hebrew cognate). In any case, I echo the concern for this strange preoccupation with picking on Sela. I am not pulling my daughter from Yu Ying for Sela, but I hope Sela goes forth and prospers. YY parents are familiar with such negative fixations by DCUM, but you all seem to have fallen of the mental cliff of late![/quote] You do know, Dr, that SELA is a modern Hebrew immersion program, not an "ancient Hebrew" immersion school, right? As for the PP all het up about immersion for immersion's sake, accusing anyone who doubts the usefulness of Hebrew language immersion of racism :roll:, check your facts. There are not 13+million modern Hebrew speakers. There are 7 million. Tops. Most of whom reside in Israel, where the dominant language of business is....English. You want to line up for SELA, more power to you. But when your child struggles with the language and you realize they will never use it, don't complain and don't dare wish for another Spanish immersion program in its place. [/quote] +100 SELA boosters, please come back in 5 years. And, [b]to the supposed oncologist (scary if that's the case)[/b] who attacked Greek & Latin while boosting Hebrew as the source of all Western law...please educate yourself (in any language you want to): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_of_Hammurabi http://www.dl.ket.org/latin3/mores/legallatin/legal01.htm[/quote] Holy shit - how stupid are you?? You're offended by the idea of an oncologist who speaks Hebrew? Would you be similarly offended by a ballet dancer who speaks Russian? You're a f*cking idiot. Just go away. Contaminate yourself online elsewhere - perhaps where the Kardashians are admired, as opposed to reviled. [/quote] Wow. You just took the cake for most ridiculous, willfully ignorant post of the month (and we'll throw in posts from Dec too, since we're still early in Jan). This poster said NOTHING about being offended that the (supposed) Oncologist speaks Hebrew. Before you twist your panties past the point of being able to breathe (and that goes whether you're a guy or a gal), maybe READ the post you're responding to before viciously and ridiculously accusing a PP of not reading. You even take the cake from the "Don't tell us how great your charter schools are!" poster... unless you're the same person.[/quote]
