Sorry, I meant I never implied I know about your own people more than you do.

And WTF are you talking about? Share my views? I've been speaking my mind all this time. I'm a Muslim, so it doesn't take a genius to know what my general view on Israel and its Zionist interpretatoon is. Add to it my shared view that their holocaust excuse is exhausted and not valid anymore. Considering what the government's done to the Palestian public since its establishment. What a fvcking joke. And no, it's not a "random" video. The man speaks truth and is ashamed of what Israel has done to his reputation and the reputation of his religion and its followers.

Please stop asking me to explain myself further. I'm done. If you didn't butt in and state the fact that Jews want the Arabs dead this would've never dragged.

lol, I never said Jews wanted Arabs dead, , but that certain sect (representated primarily by Neturei Karta) , do want to see the Arabs dead , or converted on a good day. and yes , its a random video , he is ashamed of Israel , and us Jews are ashamed of him , whats your point? you say the "excuse is exhausted, but then give me a video of a guy who uses the holocaust as an excuse to justify what he says? clever. but of course you want to use him as a shield for your views (using the fact that he was born a Jew to someone give you a kosher approval), when really it means very little, you can find alot of people who say alot of thing, so far, you are indeed hiding behind the views of someone else, mostly because you yourself do not know very much. and the fact that youre a Muslim means nothing to me, I can find you Muslims who like Israel or dislike Israel , does that mean something? not really, and your attempt to bring up someone like Finkelstien is no different.

I'm sorry, but you're full of shi* if you keep insisting I'm hiding behind someone's views. WTF are you on? Seriously? No wonder Israel supporters get so much hate. Man, this is so pathetic I'm laughing my ass off here. Oh my God. So the holocaust gives them the right to slaughter all those Palestinians for all these years?

I'm done. Seriously, I'm done. Fvck me. LMFAO!

considering you haven't actually told me anything besides " you don't know Zionism" no , you didn't tell me much beyond that video , so far Im willing to say you do indeed hide behined the views of others due to a lack of knowledge on your part. and I don't think I actually said any of that or even implied that..... seems like youre not reading anything I said, quite typical of someone who doesn't know very much about the subject he is talking about . I would suggest actually studying the topic in more detail before spewing nonsense.

The majority of the world are waking up to the fact that Israel is a criminally murderous state. If Palestine kill one person they slaughter triple the count in response. Get your facts straight. I'm not a Jew hater.

And Dark, I read all your posts very well. You talk like the Israeli government. I'm done with that discussion.

Which is why I took the time to exclude Zionism from Judaism and specifically state that I respect Judaism as a faith. Not to mention my post about the ultra orthodox jews. Makes sense :roll:

and Im telling you , that you have no right or authority to tell others what is Jewish or what Isn't likewise using a nutcase group most Jews ignore and laugh at (you really have to scrape the bottom of the barrel to reach them) , is likewise not smart.

Very interesting. You don't believe Jews have the same rights as other people. But you are not anti-semitic cause you "respect" some religion?

Aero5555

Are you a saudi who cavorts with grayfox and fize, on this board?

Y/N

Now, beyond that point- you occupy yourself, like so many in the muslim middle-east, with (beyond the obvious anti-Israeli diatribes) conspiratorial rethoric centered around so-called 'zionists'. Zionists, who in your worldview (which is not unrelated to prophetic religious belief) control anything and are the ultimate enemies of humankind.

I could go on about how unsubstantiated and how founded in ignorance this politically born world view is- but I won't. I will, however, say that it sounds as if you don't hate judaism or jews who ascribe to your worldview- but you do hate the majority of worldwide Jewry (who are, by your definition 'zionists' or zionist sympathizers). ipso facto- you hate jews, but not judaism. k?

I hate judaism but not jews, lets Ebony and ivory

.... Wut?

Who said anything about rights? Is what Israel doing considered right or even humane? No. Do I believe all Jews are evil? No. Are they human and have the right to practice their religion? Yes. Where's the anti-semitism? Or is Israel's right to exist part of their faith now too?

Don't answer that. My point is you're bending my words.

Pie, what are you talking about? You Israeli or Jewish? Here's the deal.

Israeli = Read my posts 2 pages back. The whole chain.

Jewish = I made my stance perfectly clear. Zionism is purely political.

You said Zionism (the RIGHT of Jews for self-determination)

Is what Israel doing considered right or even humane?

Yes

Do I believe all Jews are evil?

I wouldn't know your reason for denying them rights.

Are they human and have the right to practice their religion? Yes.

How generous

Where's the anti-semitism? Or is Israel's right to exist part of their faith now too?

Yes it is actually. But that is irrelevant actually.

If your neighbor is the same-sex as you that line does not apply and its against the book.

so where does Christianity get its views of gays? tradtionally at least they were not seen a good light obviously is there a Christian source to it, or is it just borrowed from the Jews?

The OT is embedded in Christian thought and theology BossPerson
The most misunderstood concept of the Christian religion. The OT is included in the Bible as the history of God's relationship with his people and the passages that Christians consider to prophesy the coming of the Messiah...IE Jesus. But Christians do NOT follow the Jewish religion.

Speaking as a Catholic, the largest denomination of Christians, I can tell you that only select readings from the OT are used during Mass and are used as I said.....a history and a prophesy. The BASIS for the religion is the NT. Oftentimes an OT reading is contrasted with an NT reading and explained why the difference exists.

But to say Christianity is following the Jewish rules/regulations/religion shows a lack of education toward both religions.

Cultural more than likely. And a misreading of Paul coupled with the inclusion of the OT in the book. But Jesus never spoke out against gay people.....no.

........yea I know. The Old Testament is still embedded in Christian thought though. And that's where the main source of the anti-gay views come from.

the interesting thing is that neither ancient Greece or Rome had any hate of gays (not to this level) , so its interesting that Christianity adopted the opposite choice (given the fact most early Christians were members of those 2 cultures).

[QUOTE="BossPerson"]The OT is embedded in Christian thought and theology BossPerson

The most misunderstood concept of the Christian religion. The OT is included in the Bible as the history of God's relationship with his people and the passages that Christians consider to prophesy the coming of the Messiah...IE Jesus. But Christians do NOT follow the Jewish religion.

Speaking as a Catholic, the largest denomination of Christians, I can tell you that only select readings from the OT are used during Mass and are used as I said.....a history and a prophesy. The BASIS for the religion is the NT. Oftentimes an OT reading is contrasted with an NT reading and explained why the difference exists.

But to say Christianity is following the Jewish rules/regulations/religion shows a lack of education toward both religions.

........yea I know. The Old Testament is still embedded in Christian thought though. And that's where the main source of the anti-gay views come from.

I love it when christians treat the bible, especially the OT like an all you can eat buffet. Take what you want, leave what you don't like, etc. Why anyone could think either the OT or the NT is worthy of following is beyond me.

the interesting thing is that neither ancient Greece or Rome had any hate of gays (not to this level) , so its interesting that Christianity adopted the opposite choice (given the fact most early Christians were members of those 2 cultures).

Have you ever heard of pedaestry? Gay prostitution? For the record, the Bible does not condone homophobia of any level, but made it clear that any sexual sin is held liable (that includes incest, sodomy, and bestiality). God is offering help to those who are looking for help. A doctor can only treat those who are willing to be treated.

"And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done unto him." What did Ham do? Did he just look at his naked father or was there something more to it than that? Some commentators have suggested that Ham committed homosexual rape on his drunken father, and that this was why Ham's descendants were eternally punished with slavery. 9:24 Those "commentators" could also be condemned as heretics or laughed out before being refuted by apologists and scholars, who knows?

Islam is a religion of popular revolt and insurrection against unnatural powers.

Christianity is a religion of docile obedience and slavery to the will of the state.

Modern times (Europe/USA) = Obedience to the state = Christianity

Surely you then accept the notion that the story of Noah for example is impossible? There is zero chance that he was able to house all forms of life in pairs with enough food and resources for him and six other humans plus and animal for 40 days in a boat that wasn't even half the size of the Titanic. The Titanic itself only stored enough food to feed 3000 people for two weeks and it was over twice the size. There is zero logic when it comes to the acceptance of a religious belief and this is why I remain agonistic.

Anyone who believes that everything in the Bible happened exactly like the book says it does is an idiot. Most religious people will tell you that. That's a really sh!tty basis for an argument.

Lets see.

Christian Extremists = Mostly just trolls(Westboro church, republicans, etc.).

Muslim Extremists = homicidal savages(Middle east, etc.).

I'll go with the bible nuts.
