RIP Screech

Hopefully he makes it (to 2022).
 
Daaaaaaaaamn
 
damn. sorry to hear that. wouldn't wish it on anyone. prayers sent up for ol' Screech.
 
Was that his name, Dustin Diamond?

He was funny on that show...wouldn't have been the same without him.
 
No knowledge of this fella.
 
On his Wikipedia page, it says he was Jewish, but attended Zion Lutheran School. That doesn't line up. Diamond is a Jewish last name and he did have ancestral-Jewish facial features, but attending a Lutheran school probably means his family converted to Christianity. I find it very hard to believe Jewish parents would send their Jewish children to a Christian school if they weren't converted/ing. It's also hard to believe a Christian school would accept a Jewish family that has not or has no intention of converting to Christianity. ...Even in California.

I went to a Jesuit school for a while. Heavily catholic. All the major religions were represented in the student body.

Yeah, but Catholics bend the rules when financial gain is in play and Jews don't give money to Protestants.

I'm guessing in Hollywood, he changed with the wind. Some producer named Saul Goldfarb wants you to be Jewish? You're Jewish!
