British government intrusion into Jewish faith

I have been receiving some emails lately suggesting that I am too concerned about the intrusion of the state into the affairs of the Church. This has caused me to look at whether or not there is any truth into their concerns. Then I stumbled across this tidbit on the the First Things blog. It presents the fact that a British court has now decided that Jewish law is "racist" and gives to the courts the right to determine who is a "Jew".

I think that I was (sadly) right all along.
