This Is One of the Best Pictures That I've Seen of Geraldo Rivera In A Long Time...

This is from Geraldo's public Facebook page.

From A Lot of What's on Geraldo Rivera's Facebook Page....

That many people don't respect him is quite clear. Since I can't seem to get engagement on my Blogger polls, I want to try a Facebook poll and ask, "Do you respect Geraldo Rivera? " Go vote on the poll, and please "Like" my Facebook page; follow me @Nickidewbear on Twitter, and view my videos on YouTube (You don't have to subscribe!).

How This Girl Looks Scarily Like Geraldo Rivera's Youngest Daughter Is Amazing

From Midlife Singlemum's publicly-shared blog

If I didn't know better, I'd say that she is Sol; and I actually even wondered if she is Sol when I first saw the picture of her on Faceshuk. I wondered if she is Sol from a long time ago, if the picture is of Sol from a long time ago. I even wonder if Geraldo's the IVF donor and he doesn't know it-- she could be Sol's long-lost sister or (if I didn't know better) twin.

You Can Like A Person's Product Without Liking Them...

For example; I like Craig Rivera's reporting on "Geraldo at Large", but I do not like the man. For one, he is unbelievably liberal: even on his own Facebook page, he likes such shows as "The Daily Show" and the whole of OWN (Oprah Winfrey Network). For two, he supported Barack Obama in 2008 (Don't believe me? Look it up yourself.). For three, is not friends with his own children on Facebook; and we were actually friends on Facebook for a while, but he defriended me (and I maintain my claim that we're-- however distantly related-- related until I die or get Raptured. I didn't even bring up that he and Geraldo look too strikingly like Dad and Uncle Gary-- Michelle did. Besides, we're all Jewish and from the same area-- and there was an Abe Friedman in Suwalki who posted on Ancestry.com; so we're distantly related, Craig-- get used to it. And as I said, I don't care for money just because I'm a relative. Besides, I'm so used crazy relatives; that if and when I a connection to Craig Rivera, I might laugh-- I have plenty of meshugene mispoche who aren't talking to me and others.).

As for Matt and Marcela "Mia" J. Danilowicz, I'm still boycotting and encouraging the boycotting of their products-- no matter how much I like or I'd like their products-- because they're known and confirmed family members who need to be taught that you don't get away withreating and abusing family members in any way, shape, or form.

By the way, the they-look-alike point was first made in "The Fam'ly and Parodies" album. I was joking about two uncles with cigars, and...

Not my fault that a joke about two uncles who do smoke turned into the fact that Geraldo and Craig all too look like...

And this was taken on July 22, 1989. The "Life" photo above was taken on or around April 18, 1994-- same time period, 5-year-difference.

And the baby (now 17-year-old Austin Rivera) looks like my cousin Scott (who is a year and some months younger) when he was a baby (and I sadly do not have a baby picture of Scott, although I remember what he looked like-- I was about to be six when he was born).

And distant cousins can and do often look alike-- so there you go (and Mia might always hate how she looks like Aunt Mary and Kayla, by the way, since I mentioned it; but I don't care if she likes my observations or not).

Geraldo's Become More Religious; Let's Just Hope That It's For the Good

By the way, I got Anti-Semitically attacked for explaining this:

My explanation to Anti Semite Jackie White Snow, who subsequently had her comment removed. And Facebook just removed Carole Lynn's Anti-Semitic, personal attack against me (That was quick.).

Meanwhile, what I don't know is how good Geraldo becoming more religiously Jewish is. So, writing "God" as "G#d" on Geraldo's part may well reflect a further gravitation towards Far-Left, Self-Hating-Jewish (e.g., Eric Yoffe and Richard Jacobs), Union-of-Reform-Judaism Judaism. (And I give Masada2000.org this-- they show the damage of not believing that Tanakh is G-d's Word):

So, is that Geraldo is committed to Reform Judaism more necessarily a good thing considering this?

The Reform position is much more complicated. First, how do we know what God wants? Reform asserts that every knowledgeable Jew has an equal claim to a personal understanding of what God wants. Therefore, Movement-wide agreement is, in principle, not necessary nor desirable, nor probably even possible. We each (if we are knowledgeable about the tradition, if we confront it seriously and take its claims and its wisdom seriously) have the ability, the freedom, indeed the responsibility to come to a [potentially differing] personal understanding of what God wants us to do.
But if we are free to choose, what, then, is the point of Torah (and halacha)? For me, and I think for many other Reform Jews as well (though in principle it doesn't matter), it is a record of how our people, in widely differing times, places and societal circumstances, experienced God's presence in their lives, and responded. Each aspect of halacha is a possible gateway to experience of the holy, the spiritual. Each aspect worked for some Jews, once upon a time, somewhere in our history. Each, therefore, has the potential to open up holiness for people in our time as well, and for me personally.
However, each does not have equal claim on us, on me. Much of the halacha arose in societal settings where distance from the peoples in whose midst we lived was desirable. The "outside" world was dark, dangerous and threatening. That is no longer our situation. We welcome, applaud and are uplifted by much of Western culture. Portions of the halacha whose main purpose seems to be to distance us from our surroundings no longer seem functional.

This is also does become problematic especially when one considers, "Some (the agricultural laws, for instance) are no longer possible to observe. Others (the sacrificial laws, for instance) come from a social context so foreign to our own that it would be impossible to conceive modern people finding holiness in their revival."

Yet, if one is lo b'Yeshua, he or she must keep all 613 mitzvot. One either has to follow Torah-Moshe or the Brit Chadashah, which Torah-Moshe pointed to and-- where Torah Moshe does not deliberately contradict Brit Chadashah-- can be followed within the context thereof   (cf. Acts 15, Romans 7:4-25, 14; Galatians 1:6-12, 5:7-12): yeshuat cannot be found in both. The deliberate contradictions, by the way, are explained by Romans 7:4-25 and are exemplified in-- for instance-- D'varim 23:1-8; in where ahavah, rachamim, and other attributes are not shown. e.g. (Emphasis mine):

• ¹¹ For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it killed me. ¹² Therefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy and just and good.¹³ Has then what is good become death to me? Certainly not! But sin, that it might appear sin, was producing death in me through what is good, so that sin through the commandment might become exceedingly sinful. ¹⁴ For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am carnal, sold under sin. ¹⁵ For what I am doing, I do not understand. For what I will to do, that I do not practice; but what I hate, that I do. ¹⁶ If, then, I do what I will not to do, I agree with the law that it is good. ¹⁷ But now, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me. ¹⁸ For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh) nothing good dwells; for to will is present with me, but how to perform what is good I do not find. ¹⁹ For the good that I will to do, I do not do; but the evil I will not to do, that I practice. ²⁰ Now if I do what I will not to do, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me.

• ¹ “He who is emasculated by crushing or mutilation shall not enter the assembly of the LORD.
  ² “One of illegitimate birth shall not enter the assembly of the LORD; even to the tenth generation none of his descendants shall enter the assembly of the LORD.
  ³ “An Ammonite or Moabite shall not enter the assembly of the LORD; even to the tenth generation none of his descendants shall enter the assembly of the LORD forever, ⁴ because they did not meet you with bread and water on the road when you came out of Egypt, and because they hired against you Balaam the son of Beor from Pethor of Mesopotamia,^[a] to curse you. ⁵ Nevertheless the LORD your God would not listen to Balaam, but the LORD your God turned the curse into a blessing for you, because the LORD your God loves you. ⁶ You shall not seek their peace nor their prosperity all your days forever.
  ⁷ “You shall not abhor an Edomite, for he is your brother. You shall not abhor an Egyptian, because you were an alien in his land. ⁸ The children of the third generation born to them may enter the assembly of the LORD.

Yezhekel 18:1-9 helps explain Romans 7:4-25 in light of D'varim 23:1-8:

 
 ¹ The word of the LORD came to me again, saying, ² “What do you mean when you use this proverb concerning the land of Israel, saying:

      ‘ The fathers have eaten sour grapes,
      And the children’s teeth are set on edge’?

³ “As I live,” says the Lord GOD, “you shall no longer use this proverb in Israel.
       ⁴ “ Behold, all souls are Mine;
      The soul of the father
      As well as the soul of the son is Mine;
      The soul who sins shall die.
       ⁵ But if a man is just
      And does what is lawful and right;
       ⁶ If he has not eaten on the mountains,
      Nor lifted up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel,
      Nor defiled his neighbor’s wife,
      Nor approached a woman during her impurity;
       ⁷ If he has not oppressed anyone,
      But has restored to the debtor his pledge;
      Has robbed no one by violence,
      But has given his bread to the hungry
      And covered the naked with clothing;
       ⁸ If he has not exacted usury
      Nor taken any increase,
      But has withdrawn his hand from iniquity
      And executed true judgment between man and man;
       ⁹ If he has walked in My statutes
      And kept My judgments faithfully—
      He is just;
      He shall surely live!”
      Says the Lord GOD.
   

Given  Yezhekel 18:1-9, then, D'varim 23:1-8 points to that "sin, that it might appear sin, was producing death in me through what is good, so that sin through the commandment might become exceedingly sinful." So, since Geraldo is lo b'Yeshua  and has to keep deliberately-hateful mitzvot such as D'varim 23:1-8-- regardless of the Union of Reform Judaism says--, Geraldo is becoming more religious in a bad way by gravitating more toward Reform Judaism (which, as I said, his writing "God" as "G#d" may well reflect).
