Comedian and libertarian commentator Dave Smith's attempt to lecture on morality reveals a profound ignorance of the Jewish people's enduring moral framework and their preservation of divine moral instruction for millennia. The Jewish tradition, with its comprehensive moral system, has withstood the test of time and offers a nuanced understanding of morality that balances individual dignity and communal obligation. Smith's libertarianism, focused on individual liberty, misses this balanced approach. The Jewish people, who have maintained ethical standards through persecution and genocide, have a moral resilience that transcends theoretical pontification. The Jewish tradition recognizes the need for moral authority and acknowledges a higher source of moral truth.
