…The minister in charge of the Religious Affairs, MK Yitzhak Cohen (Shas) said in response to the petition: "Conversions of reform and conservative organizations are virtual conversions, and they deserve to immerse in a virtual immersion. This is a vexing petition. The only immersion the reform are aware of is Baptism. So they can continue to walk on water and leave the people of Israel alone."…
A very funny line, to be sure, but one totally inappropriate for a Minister of Knesset, especially one in charge of Religious Affairs. In a normal country, this goon would be looking for another job. In Israel, he just sits and grows richer.
