i've said it before

there are PLENTY of repressive religions out there. NOT JUST ONE of 'em
here is yet ANOTHER example. a singer gets (voluntarily flogged for singing to a mixed AS IN WOMEN AND MEN audience)


Singer gets flogged over 'forbidden' gig
Rabbi convenes special religious court to carry out punishment against newly religious man who sang in front of integrated audience of men, women
Kobi Nahshoni

The sinner lifted his shirt and recited the confession. A court clerk pressed him against the tree pole and began flogging him with a special whip. The three judges declared, "May your evil be lifted and your sin atoned." Only a mobile phone ringtone reminded all present that the year is in fact 2010.

Rabbi Amnon Yitzhak, who heads the Shofar organization for the distribution of Judaism, has been  waging a war against religious singers who perform to an integrated audience of both men and women, and in the spirit of the Ten Days of Repentance has taken the campaign one step further..............
