Remember, it doesn't take an Einstein (guess what his religion was?
ehe) to excel in this world when you comprise the majority of its
population. Jews comprise a measly 1/4 of 1% of the world's
population, had gone without a homeland for eighteen-hundred years,
have been persecuted for centuries, and have lost 6M of their people
in the Holocaust. Despite the overwhelming odds against them, Jews
have persevered like no other peoples. Jews are universally
acknowledged as the source of many of the world's major religions.
Jews have exerted an influence on World civilization more profound and
lasting than any other ancient culture. Jews are the oldest of any
living people on earth still around with their National identity and
cultural heritage intact. >>
Dave, you appear to have spoken too soon!eheh Since his latest love is
a sweet Yiddish British, I hear that Sir Paul plans on converting to
Judaism. eh Afterall, thanks to the late Linda McCartney (b. Epstein,
later changed to Eastman), his daughter Stella shall always be
Halachically Hebraic. On a related note, I did my monthly Goodwill
(high-end Salvation Army) rounds for classic rock CDs, and managed to
come upon a UK import interview CD with Sting from 1994: "The Eleventh
Tale - Sting in Conversation." Here are a few related excerpts:
"Jimi Hendrix changed my life when I saw him perform live in
England..he was a real musician...The Beatles were a pop band..they
were not musicians..." ehe Personally, I think George Harrison was the
only true musician's musician of the lot! He also said: "I'd rather be
Frank Sinatra than Ozzy Osbourne...ehe...today's musical fad is Heavy
Metal..." I guess he hasn't listened to early Megadeth or Metallica.
Their layered richness in musical and lyrical content is unparalleled
within the genre. -D, NYC "In 1933, a researcher discovered consistent
Jewish overrepresentation in the classical music world, including "51%
of the first violins of twelve orchestras, "23.8% of the works
"performed by Jewish orchestras," and so forth. Why was this so?
Comparing Jewish and non-Jewish children, Kenneth Sward found no
intelligence differences, but speculated that "the Jewish child may be
a superior all-around organism by 'nature.'" - {WEYL, N., 1968, P.

advise you
not to invade." ehe - RICK BLAINE (Humphrey Bogart) to SGT. STRASSER
in CASABLANCA.."The most popular-selling Christmas song, "White
Christmas," was penned by a Jew" - IRVING BERLIN.."The star of the
first "talkie" was Jewish" - AL JOLSON (b.Yoelson).."This Jewish
Bluesman from Chicago is considered the first great white blues
player" - MIKE BLOOMFIELD.."The first American scientist ever awarded
the Nobel Prize was Jewish" - ALBERT ABRAHAM MICHAELSON.."What I took
back because of my exposure to the Jewish music of the '30s & the '40s
in my upbringing with my father, was that kind of theatrical
songwriting. It was always a part of my character. The desire to make
people laugh" - PETE TOWNSHEND.."Einstein, James Dean, Brooklyn's got
a winning team" - BILLY JOEL (umpteenth sweet, Jewish NYer - Top 100
selling artist of all-time).."Five Jewish men influenced the history
of Western Civilization: Moses said the law is everything. Jesus said
love is everything. Marx said capital is everything. Freud said sex is
everything. Einstein said everything is relative!" ehe..."One of the
great mysteries that has always puzzled me is how Jews, who account
for such a tiny fraction of the world's population, have been able to
achieve so much and excel in so many different fields - science,
music, medicine, literature, arts, business and more. If you listed
the most influential people of the last hundred years, three at the
top of the list would be Einstein, Freud & Marx; all were Jews. Many
more belong on the list, yet Jews comprise at most less than three
percent of the United States population. They are an amazing people.
Imagine the persecution they endured over the centuries: pogroms,
temple burnings, Cossack raids, uprootings of families, their
dispersal to the winds and the Holocaust. After the Disapora, they
could not own land or worship in much of the world; they were
prohibited from voting and told where to live. Yet their children
survived and Jews became by far the most accomplished people per
capita that the world has ever produced" - MARLON BRANDO, "Songs My
Mother Taught Me"
