They make me understand crazy evangelicals, Catholics and other kinds of religious extremists.

Most Catholics aren't religious extremists.
I had crazy Catholic neighbors. They exist. They had 8 kids whom they home-schooled. It was eye-opening as a Jew. I thought it was only evangelicals.
What made them "crazy"? The fact that they had 8 kids, or the fact that they homeschooled? Neither of these facts alone makes a family "crazy." Different from you, maybe, but not "crazy."

One of the goals of the ultra orthodox community is to have as many souls as possible to as to replenish what Hitler took. It’s a very difficult life for young women in the community. read up in Hassidim in wiki. SHTISEL (about Hasidim in Israel) is sbout the same culture but a sweeter presentation and very popular as a series right niw. Even the Hasidim who are not supposed to watch TV are secretly watching it on their phones
Shtisel is not about Hasidim. The Shtisel community are Yerushalmi Haredim.

The Catholic analogy is the SSPX people. They are wacko. Start any thread on Catholicism in the religion forum and our local SSPX nut will show up to tell everyone else that they are going to hell and that the current pope is not a good catholic (which reminds me of the old joke “Is the pope Catholic?”—answer is “not really” if you’re an SSPX-er.

For those Andrew Cuomo groupies out there, he is their enabler.
Yuck. Your racism...
