Berkowitz born again

Unless you want to execute murderers get used to it.

Get used to what? would someone please post a link to whatever we're supposed to be talking about? And, New York does have the death penalty now, it just doesn't have a method. So, someone can be sentenced to death, just not executed.

California is in a similar situation: their official charter, or whatever you call it, for executions, requires the presence of a doctor who is licensed in the state of California, and right now, no doctor in California is willing to be present for executions, so California can't actually kill anyone.

That almost never happens. Jews almost never convert to Christianity. When they leave for another actual religion, it's usually Buddhism.

Berkowitz was adopted. Did his parents go through a Jewish orphanage? otherwise, he might not have originally been Jewish. I know he "looks" very Jewish, but that doesn't really mean anything, especially in the US. You can have a Jewish great-grandparent somewhere, and a Russian grandparent, and come out "looking" Jewish, in spite of being half Norwegian, or even half Chinese.

Given the prejudices back then, they probably did have to go through a Jewish orphanage, but I just don't know for sure.

This is disgusting on many levels. I don't know who's worse, Berkowitz or the lying, conniving, money-grubbing woman interviewing him.

Sickens me.

So, you're mad about some article about Berkowitz becoming a Christian? That's sort of old news, so really it's something about the woman who interviewed him? Is it just me, or did you forget to include a link?

Just you. The link is there for those who have faith.
