My thanks, Joseph. May he who creates peace in the heavens, give peace to us now. I think I've been spending a bit much time here, so I'll bid...
I was wondering also, if I may, do Jews (is it ok to use that term? I don't want to offend you) still sacrifice animals? Its fine to call...
Well, the issues are a bit coplicated, but off the top of my head it goes like this: 1. Humans are not kosher animals. Hence their sacrifice to...
What is a fact is that messianic interpretationsof scriture are as varired as the leaves on the trees. In the Roman era, there were many messianic...
That was a good answer, Joseph. I'd have to add that I have never read Spong, and in fact don't know anyone who has. Maybe htings are different...
<sigh> Look up 'The Adapted Mind: Evolutionary Psychology and the Generation of Culture' (Barkow, Cosmides & Tooby. 1995) and get back to us...

Right. Just like you can only say that G-d is a made up father figure if you assume that He does not exist. Its kinda circular either way, Nu?...
Sigmund Freud once speculated that "God" is nothing more than a father figure. I want to take that notion further. I hereby hypothesize that...
I have been asking myself the same thing. tulpje, if you are posting to spread the word of G-d, I can assure you that all you are doing is...
Thanks, dogwood. To any actual Christians reading this thread, who wonder why Jews don't rush en masse to the embraces of the "good news", I...

Welp, I think that sums it up. Thanks.
How in the world does one become a jew/athiest? I dunno. Ask one. You are right about one thing. Jews do not worship the same god as I...
