[edit] Paradox
How can Brad be a Jewish musician and a buddist? This does not make sense! (chewbacca defense, JackpotDen)
- a) Judaism is an ethnicity as well as a religion. b) Buddhism does not disallow other religious beliefs/practices. c)Being Buddhist doesn't automatically make a Jew stop being Jewish.--Anchoress 04:52, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
- see also Leonard Cohen:
Anyways, that whole comment on him reciting a Jewish prayer had no source.--Mynabull 16:01, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
On his own MySpace page, he claims his religion as Buddist and his ethnicity as Native American - Perhaps that should be added to the main article. In regard to the "Jewish" bit, a webpage of "Intact U.S. Musicians" lists him as uncircumsized, although doesn't cite a source (I think RATM may have appeared naked on stage).

[edit] POV tag
What stood out particularly was the stuff about his dad and his spiritual beliefs.--Anchoress 04:49, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Wha?
Someone tell me why this was deleted. --71.255.21.205 01:17, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Contradiction
In the opening paragraph it states that Brad joined RATM by placing a newspaper ad. However, in the Rage Against The Machine section, it points out that he auditioned for Tom Morello's former band, who then, after meeting Zack de la Rocha, contacted Brad and asked him to be in the band. I'm pretty sure the latter is right, though if somebody could confirm this it'd be better. --Zapatista comeau 06:32, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
