[quote=Anonymous]``GDS is nominally Jewish.'' Hey screechy...you are getting all heated up because you don't know what nominally means. ``Nomnially'' is derived from the Latin word for name. So, it's used to imply the idea ``in name only'' - the opposite of how you used way it. This is how nominally is commonly used in sentences. ``I'm nominally Catholic, but I don't really believe in transubstantiation.'' So, GDS is not nominally Jewish. It may have a lot of Jews there - which is, I think, your point. But its actually a secular school founded by people who didn't want to participate in a school system that assigned kids to specific schools based on their skin color. GDS is indeed, as the pp said, nominally nothing. [/quote]
