      Thank you for the explanation. I thought he got in trouble for looking towards her boobs when there was an attention-grabbing necklace there and it totally wasn’t his fault for looking at all.

    Leviticus 11:9-11:

    You may eat anything that lives in the water—that is, you may eat anything that has fins and scales either from the seas or from the rivers. But anything that doesn’t have fins or scales—whether from the seas or the rivers—any of the swarming creatures and living creatures in the waters are detestable for you. They are to remain detestable for you. You are not to eat of their meat and you are to detest their carcasses.

      I’m pretty sure that’s the point of the comic. He is a cartoonishly specific type that this woman is looking for, even the absurd aspect of him having a lobster head that we are shown most people do not have (obviously), and he discards her as a prospect over potentially superficial differences in religious belief.

      Playing dangerous games if you are a literal believer. I’ve heard of it working, but it certainly doesn’t seem to be the norm

      I mean, yeah, but if he wants to raise kids in Judaism, she’d have to convert. It’s not an… insurmountable hill, I have family friends like that, but it does certainly make it tough.
