Sadigere. Sadigere has been described as an unusual<br />

combination of high mysticism high living, Messianism, high<br />

fashion and a splendid regal way of life.<br />

Yeshiva University in New York City is one of <strong>the</strong> great<br />

institutions that keeps alive <strong>the</strong> notion of <strong>the</strong> syn<strong>the</strong>sis of<br />

cultural, secular values with au<strong>the</strong>ntic Jewish practice. It is<br />

interesting <strong>to</strong> note on this score how <strong>the</strong> writer Chaim Po<strong>to</strong>k, in<br />

his book The Chosen, refers <strong>to</strong> his fictitious university (which<br />

really is Yeshiva University). He calls it Samson R. Hirsch<br />

University, because in essence it is this school that carries on<br />

<strong>the</strong> heritage and teachings of Rabbi Samson R. Hirsch.<br />

In his manner, popularizing <strong>the</strong> concept that <strong>the</strong><br />

philosophical and ethical teachings of Judaism are those of<br />

reason and hence universal, Mendelssohn was paving <strong>the</strong> way<br />

for <strong>the</strong> supremacy of reason over <strong>the</strong> spiritual-emotional<br />

involvements with Torah and Judaism. This could eventually<br />

force <strong>the</strong> breakdown of religious differentiations. The llluminati<br />

had not only wanted reason <strong>to</strong> take <strong>the</strong> place of religious<br />

authority, but wanted Christians <strong>to</strong> gradually become a<strong>the</strong>ists.<br />

It is interesting <strong>to</strong> note, as we pointed out before, that<br />

Judaism, which has no missionaries, did not change its views<br />

concerning non-Jews who worship <strong>the</strong> Trinity. However, one<br />

does not have <strong>to</strong> be <strong>to</strong>o brilliant <strong>to</strong> realize that a religious<br />

Christian who did become a pure mono<strong>the</strong>ist could be so cut<br />

off from his heritage and its authoritarian hold upon him that he<br />

could eventually erode his religious convictions <strong>to</strong> a<strong>the</strong>ism.<br />

This type of philosophy was even sold in later years <strong>to</strong> Jewish<br />

immigrants who were in effect <strong>to</strong>ld <strong>to</strong> melt in<strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> great<br />

melting pot of America by throwing off <strong>the</strong> religious way of life.<br />

What in reality happened was that a way of life was being sold<br />

<strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong>se immigrants as <strong>the</strong> American way of life, when it was<br />

nothing more than Mendelssohnian assimilation.<br />

As for Mendelssohn's goal <strong>to</strong> establish Judaism as only a<br />

religion and <strong>the</strong> concept of loyalty <strong>to</strong> it as compatible with a<br />

national state, let us consider <strong>the</strong> following: To <strong>the</strong> religious<br />
