"The stereotype of Jews is that they’re highly educated, but of course
that doesn’t hold for the ultra-Orthodox, whose females often don’t go
to college and whose males spend nearly all their time studying the
Torah, neglecting any other subject. It’s a waste of time and effort,
but that’s religion, Jake.
"Now Israel, to its shame, has enabled this neglect of education by
approving the dropping of “core subjects” in Orthodox schools, allowing
nearly full-time teaching of religion. These Orthodox can now
remain blissfully ignorant of math and science (most of them already are
creationists)."
