Interesting to see that Rabbi Raymond Apple's column in this week's AJN, seems to be referring to our recent post about purveyors of porn...
AJN WATCH - the on-line voice of Australian Orthodox Jewry observes and comments on matters of interest to that community. We particularly monitor prejudice and monopolistic abuse of influence in the pages of the Australian Jewish News - the main source of information to and about Australian Jewry. We spotlight errors, expose misrepresentations and vigorously advocate our community's positions.
I wouldn't be surprised. I know a number of rabbis who check out AJNWatch "religiously"..
ReplyDelete(After all, how many other Aussie blogs say what many of them say privately and would wish to say publicly?
The AJN article by Rabbi Apple on Judaism and pornography is actually taken from the Rabbi's weekly emails and website (http://www.oztorah.com). I've noticed that the AJN often reproduces the rabbi's writings, particularly his "Ask the Rabbi" articles. What's ironic is that, on this occasion, the paper has chosen to reproduce an article that - by extension - actually serves to condemn them given that they are the ones who are guilty of peddling soft porn.
