Rabbi Shmuel Herzfeld wrote an excellent essay with a Jewish view on the obligations of an individual to act when they see wrongdoing, such as the crimes that are reported in connection with the awful scandal at Penn State.
...In the Jewish tradition it is an absolute sin to stand by while another person is being hurt. The Torah states, “Do not stand by the blood of your neighbor” (Leviticus 19:16). The great medieval commentator, Rashi (d. 1105), explains that this means: “To see his death while you were capable of saving him, like, for example, if he was drowning in the sea or bandits were coming upon him.”...See the rabbi's whole article in the Washington Post, "Joe Paterno had to go: a religious argument".

Sandusky deffo is, this blog is either wrong or deliberately denying their religion.
But the fired President of Penn Sate was Jewish.
Joe Paterno is a Republican. Isn't that a religion these days?
Nice try but....Sandusky is a lithuanian Jew and his wife dottie gross is also a jew. (check out the names nose and ears -duh)Why are they hiding? because they can. These coaches Catholics and Jews have brought shame to every religion. Going to a catholic Church does not remove your Jewish heritage.
Sandusky is not Jewish. Wiki says he goes to a Methodist church. He is Slavic and comes from the heavily Slavic area of Pittsburgh.
Like Jews have never been known to hide their jewishness. Wiki also said Paul Revere warned the british after Sarah Palin Changed it. So in conclusion...still a jew.... own it
Oy! He and his wife are Jews!
Who named "Jerry" isn't Jewish? Sandusky's wife is Dottie "Gross" ... so how many hints do you need?
Again, just to clarify, Sandusky is not a Jew.
GROSS IS A GERMAN NAME AND IT CAN GO EITHER WAY. SHE GREW UP IN CHATANOOGA TN AS AN EVANGELICAL. THERE ARE PLENTY OF PEOPLE IN THE WORLD NAMED GROSS WHO ARE GERMAN CATHOLIC OR CHRISTIANS YOU REALLY DO NEED HELP WITH YOUR OWN MOLESTATION ISSUES "ANONYMOUS" I FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE THAT AN ISRAELI WOULD EVEN KEEP YOUR ASSININE POSTS UP
I agree. This anonymous poster is very twisted. And it does sound like he is indeed a child of molestation looking for someone to blame it on. the sad part is that tzvee keeps his post on. Israeli's are the last people i the world that need to put up with some former alter boy and his gripes.
Well, we Christians derive our Christianity from Jewish roots, but broke away from them when they rejected Jesus. Therefore, the remaining Jews must convert and accept Christ for salvation. Even Sandusky, who must face punishmnet here on earth, can gain salvation through true repentance.Even a righteous Jew will suffer eternal flame absent acceptance of Christ.
To anonymous the coward, Sandusky is not a Jew, he is a Christian. But it does not matter. Good Christians around the world are not affected by this because sick perverts come in all races, colors and religions. Now go climb back under the rock you came from you worm.
The local talk is that he attended the Hillel on-campus (Jewish metings/Synague), along with the Jewish President who was just ousted, and that he was raised in a Jewish household, although his mother (Lee surname) converted to Judaism due to her husband’s wishes.
He is of Polish-Jewish descent, from local sources. He did attend the local church but that was to bring his young boys to “mass”/service and to fit in to the football world.
First time I visit this forum. Am writing a book about Jews, how they are subject to hatred (not when, as the answer is: at all times), and is there a link between jews (quantum, chaos, coincidences.
I found here few people with an ability to think logically.
Instead, I found: "His name is Jerry, who in the world named Jerry is not a jew".
Nice try. Do better, please.
