Re: Depends on whether you believe the books.
The question though is about religion and logic. You do agree though that ALL Jews, even today hold the proscription against women making coffee, don't you?

Re: Depends on whether you believe the books.
Sure seems so. It is, as I said, so important it was made part of the Christian Canon and adopted as an identity by Jews. It is perhaps the most pervasive designation for all Jews regardless of where they live or which sect they belong to.

Re: Depends on whether you believe the books.
For example, the Christian religions all agree that only men should make coffee. I'm a Bible illiterate so you're going to have to explain this one to me.

Re: Depends on whether you believe the books.
Where are you getting this prohibition of women making coffee from? I've never heard of such a thing either for Jews (I have many Jewish friends) or for Christians?

The coffee bean was considered an aphrodisiac.

Re: Depends on whether you believe the books.
A whole book of the New Testament is devoted to it. Also, as I have said, the Jews felt so strongly about it that they adopted it as a personal identifier.

Re: Depends on whether you believe the books.
I have had jewish women make coffee for me (no big deal). I have never encountered the behaviour you are talking about, or at lease not at the magnitude you speak of.
