How poor is their learning? Have they not read or been taught Shemos (Ex.) 12:43-48 “This is the decree of the pesach offering – no alienated person (a non-Jew or a Jew who has apostasized) may eat it; … a (non-Jewish) hired labourer may not eat it; … no uncircumcised male may eat it” and “no ritually impure person may eat it” (Paschim 66b).

If the NSW JBofD have decided to take Judaism down this path of total rejection and disrespect of the Torah in the hope of gaining some sort of accolades from the non-Jews, and the goyim pagans, then they should all be sacked and seen as the apostates they are. Sure, throw a party for non-Jews, and be friendly toward them, but don’t dare call it “Pesach”, or even a “Pesach dinner” and don’t go near the sacred Seder when doing so.
