Judaism

[Countess Anya of the North Parish]

Well when you are a jew you are suppose to have a light inside of you and each time you sin the light gets dimmer. And you only have one time of year to0 repent.

If you are a jew but dont exactly follow all the 300 sum laws you are not sinning. Basically as long as you respect your parents and follow the right morals you are a good jew.

PiT (The Physicist)
 It is called Yom Pippur.

[Countess Anya of the North Parish]

[Countess Anya of the North Parish]

[Countess Anya of the North Parish]

yup.every religion is always based off one another.

[Countess Anya of the North Parish]

I think alll religions do. People just try to think they are diff.

[Countess Anya of the North Parish]

But they are all based on being polite and to respect others.

[Countess Anya of the North Parish]

to some degree there is always respect wether it is noticed or goes unnoticed.

[Countess Anya of the North Parish]

That is not humanly. Jeez. Religions do not say to harass someone do they?

[Countess Anya of the North Parish]

well yeh I see. sucks for boys. he he.

[Countess Anya of the North Parish]

Yup!!!! does not effect me hence the heheheheheh!!!!!!!!

[Countess Anya of the North Parish]

Africa is not even a developed country. America and Europe are developed and they don't do that. I guess the developed countries that have an established religion are identical to one an other.

[Countess Anya of the North Parish]

In the sense that we are all developed.

[Countess Anya of the North Parish]

OK maybe but they are economically they are.

[Countess Anya of the North Parish]

In the sence of what we produce and how we have jobs and good education.

[Countess Anya of the North Parish]

good.

[Countess Anya of the North Parish]

here is a good question.

why are Christan's so mean to Jews if they are suppose to be nice to everyone?

[Countess Anya of the North Parish]

     Explain. Are you talking about Jewish stereotypes or what? Many Christians adore the Jews (chosen people of God).

Pit, pascel thinks jews are not the choosen people of god. He started having a fit. I asked him what was so bad and he went on a rant. It was crazy. And people get meaner to me when I say I am jewish.

lets see ben, India, spenser  and some people you don't know, they are friends of my moms.

[Countess Anya of the North Parish]

If the mom is Jewish they are a Jew, but not considered one in the temple. Not till they get baptized. Basically they are not going to get a botmitzah or batmitzhah until they are baptized.

[Countess Anya of the North Parish]

basically. If the mom is Orthodox the child will have been baptised since she or she was one.

[Countess Anya of the North Parish]

basically. If the mom is Orthodox the child will have been baptised since she or she was one.

We don't have baptism.

huh I don't understand your statment.

Jews don't practice baptism.  They practice a water cleansing ritual, mivkah, but it's not equivalent.  More similar is the hand-washing practices, which in the Bible used the same word as "baptism."  They're still not the same thing, though.

thank you I couldn't quit get it off the tip of my tongue.

[Countess Anya of the North Parish]

So if I'm reading it right, we have a fundamental disagreement because he believes that unless I accept Jesus I am going to Hell. And he believes that Jesus is the entire Bible, whereas I consider Jesus a non-entity.

So then my question is...why bother posting here? You're not convincing anyone? And you're not looking to be convinced or to rationally argue the two sides. If you would like to seriously debate this some time, jmfcst, feel free to PM me (although finals coming up and won't have much time for the next 2 weeks).

Otherwise, I think the resolution is, you believe what you want and I'll believe what I want. But my book was written first and so that is what we will be drawing from to answer questions about Judaism.

lol. Children. *shakes head*
Wasn't Jesus a jew?

[Countess Anya of the North Parish]

My big problem with people claiming the Hebrew Bible justifies the Christian Bible is that the authors of those books (Matthew, Mark, Luke, etc.), knew the audience they were writing for, and so they could have very easily written something in order to fit the whole story.  It's a big problem that none of these people actually knew Jesus; I could write a biography of Mark Warner after everyone who knew him was dead, and claim that he's the Messiah by making events fit with the Hebrew Bible, and nobody could contradict me.

Alright but do you deny all the events? I think that religion exists but it has to do more with the mind than the facts.
