Nimoy did a lot for Jewish causes.

If he has a Jewish funeral the event will occur almost immediately, probably Sunday.

Let's be clear here folks....Leonard Nimoy grew to hate his role as "Spock" after Star Trek was cancelled. He was typecasted big time, and struggled to shake off the role, despite many other program credits before and after the series.

Ya I wonder how that "struggle" went?

Don't confuse a very creatively written character for a good actor!

Gene Roddenberry was the mastermind of Star Trek!!!

I think this is why Nimoy hated the character Spock. Or at the very least, had a love hate relationship with the character in my opinion. I can imagine he had a very complex relationship with this character "Spock".

Thanks for educating us non-jews......say was he an organ donor though? :rolleyes:

We have an exception for that, called, phonetically "Pikuach Nefesh" or "to save a life" (link, excerpt below).

According to pikuach nefesh a person must do everything in their power to save the life of another, even donate bodily organs. Ovaday Yosef, the former Sephardic Chief Rabbi of Israel, ruled that one may donate an organ to a person in critical need, so long as it does not put the donor’s life at risk. It is also permissible to travel on Shabbat to save a person’s life. Maimonides declared that a Jew should take the individual, even if a gentile is present, in order to encourage “compassion, loving-kindness and peace in the world” (Mishneh Torah, 2:3). The laws of the Sabbath may be suspended to provide any necessary medical care to a critically ill individual or to an individual in the likelihood of danger to life. However, if a person has only a lesser infirmity or physical ailment, any violation of Shabbat should be minimal or, if viable, performed by a gentile.

The first and only one I saw was 20 years ago.

Very funny at the time.

By sheer chance, I saw a re-run of the Monorail! episode of the Simpsons today. I think it's the most memorable episode of the whole series, and Leonard Nimoy guest-stars as himself.
