OK. I'm blind from you perspective, but from mine, I can see quite well. That's fine. Hate me all you want. I don't hate you, though. Um, in my body?

Indeed. I have my own meaningful spirituality. Trying to convert me to something else is a waste of your energy that could be better served doing something positive. Nonsense. Jesus wasn't a bad teacher.

We need to maintain our military presence as long as necessary. I don't agree with the reasons this war was started and I think this war was a waste of our resources, though. We're too far in now to go back. Regardless of how invalid our reasons for starting this may have been, we have to see...

Being up-to-date on what's currently going on in the world is funny? You may have misunderstood what I meant. I refuse to read texts that are too old as academic fact. That does not mean I reject their validity outright or that I don't read them at all.

I don't use Windows. Still, it doesn't matter. Proselytizing to me isn't going to work. You're wasting your time because I've already evaluated Christianity and determined it's not for me.

I'm just acknowledging a fact. Hatred doesn't win in the long run.

That isn't the reason either. "Secular authorities"? Secular authorities in the west are typically Christians and generally already have an axe to grind with the Jews. Why don't you cite some educated Jewish sources that claim that Judaism is not Judaism? And... there are denominations of...

I have. It was a good film. I disagree. Are you suggesting that the Jews the Ten Booms saved are all in hell now?

I am familiar, yes. What's your point? One does not need to be a Jew to be a good person. We've already established that.

The Bible establishes this where? Yes, in the creation story, the two participants are straight--what's your point? I'm not mocking you, only acknowledging that there is no rational means by which to claim that any particular religious text is true or. Text-based communication strips a lot...

No amount of hate will stop WorldPride. No amount of conservative idiocy will put a cap on Freedom. We opposed you with Jesus, with the Pharisees, with the American and French revolutions, with the Enlightenment, and now ultimately with modern Liberalism. Conservatives have an awful track...

Wow, there's a lot of mistakes in that... But it's typical Christian rhetoric. My opinion has not changed as a result of reading that. All I know now is that there is yet another member of this forum who does not understand Judaism but wants to believe that he does.

Ah, but there's only one God. If you're willing to claim that there are other gods, stop claiming to be a monotheist. I've only two questions for you... What are the words of the Sh'ma? And what do they mean? I imagine probably not very many. It's not my field, though, so I concede I...

There's an interpreter at NTID who is hard of hearing... I'm not sure if he's a professional, though or if that's what he's being paid to do. I'm hard of hearing. I'm a student... Working is, at the moment, something that I'm not allowed to do as a consequence of that. I have lots...

Funny, but the Romans regarded the emporer as a god or godlike.... But you also don't think gay men or lesbians should be allowed to marry... Curious. It proves that you're sensitive to having your book compared to a modern work of fiction. I don't dismiss the faith of others. I just...

Inciting revolution doesn't make one an enemy of Rome? Church history, but not world history is where your information comes from. The Jews were an occupied people and as such did not like their occupiers. It is an understood fact, also, that the Romans did not particularly like the Jews as...

You're treating me with disrespect. I don't care whether or not that's how you treat Jews. You are treating *me*, the girl sitting on the floor of her room, keyboard in hand, with disrespect. You disrespect me, I will disrespect you. Respect me, and you will receive my respect. All you need...

God didn't destroy the Muslims, the Taoists, the Hindus, the Buddhists or the Native Americans. You can't base religious significance on which cultures died out as a great many survived that are not Jewish or Christian. Like? By my observation, Christianity didn't adopt many (or any) Jewish...
