Rabbi Shochet's facebook status is advertising the following event:

WHY MIRIAM SHAVIV'S GOT JUDAISM ALL WRONG + HAS "MISHLOACH MONOT" BECOME TOO COMMERCIALISED? TONIGHT (2/24) @ MILL HILL SYNAGOGUE 8-9PM FOLLOWED BY GREAT WHISKY TASTING

I guess he really didn't like my piece about him a couple of weeks ago....

I think the whisky tasting should come before the discussion of why you have got Judaism all wrong.

Rabbi Shochet said something in his Jewish News Q&A section the other week recommending the delights of cholent and whisky - in my opinion one of the finest Jewish experiences available - which almost had me ready to join his synagogue, but I find his thoughts on conversion and the ending of it so completely at odds with the basic fundamentals of what Judaism is all about I can't help but think he's been enjoying a dram or ten of Tallisker too many.

She is probably just pre-emptively declaring you wrong on everything to cover excess drinking on Purim.

Shurely, shome mishtake, JLCohen. I sure he meant haggis and whisky (preferably Ardbeg or Laiphroiag)

Ardbeg and (especially) Laphroaig - good man! Laphroaig remains humankind's greatest invention to date in my estimation.

Finally, some of our commentators agree on something....

Oy, you're right! We must prevent this from ever happening again - I'm not quite sure the world is ready for agreement when it comes to anything concerning Jewish matters!
