If you’re looking for the program of the 15th conference, which I posted about here, the organisers seem to have removed it already. For the 16th conference, which will happen next year, I imagine that they’ll have the program up closer to the date.

]]> Comment on Kosher Blood by yitayningwut http://benabuya.com/2012/02/27/kosher-blood/#comment-9186 Mon, 27 Feb 2012 17:33:23 +0000 http://benabuya.com/?p=1921#comment-9186 Wow; interesting connection between vampirism and Judaism.

You write, “I am sure that it goes without saying that animal blood is not something that religious Jews have ever consumed, and it is an unfamiliarity with Jewish religious law that strikes at the heart of such a depiction, as unfamiliarity strikes at the heart of all racial prejudices.” Also, “the reason that religious Jews would shun such a practise is the more commonplace aversion to murder.” These are crucial points which cannot be stressed enough, inasmuch as we can entertain ourselves with Purim Torah. Well put.

Thank you for the citation and link; I am truly honored.

Because it has free shipping to Australia with a sufficiently large purchase. I just heard this on my last trip to Sydney.
