Israel May Ban Women Singing In Public

Men in the Israeli army are forced to endure an incredible pain. They actually have to hear women singing in public. Are you shocked, shocked? Ultra-orthodox rabbis in Israel are more than shocked. They are mobilizing their considerable political clout to get the Israeli government to ban such ungodly behavior.

If the government won't yield, says one rabbi, the day will soon come when rabbis will "have to say" to soldiers, "You have to leave those events even if there's a firing squad outside, and you'll be shot to death."

Surely, God must be looking down at us and saying "HOW did you people get to the point -- among many many other sorrowful ones -- where you are instructing my children to choose between hearing a woman sing or dying? And these people can actually say these things (like killing innocent women and children will get you a ticket to paradise??) with a straight face, and without shame?
