What do you care what Miriam thinks of Jesus? What is Jesus to you? I
acknowledge Him as my Savior and L-rd, and I am saddened that Miriam
esteems him not at all. But I can't imagine responding to her disdain for
Jesus with the kind of hatred you display--I can't imagine responding with
any hatred at all.
So why should you, to whom Jesus is much less than L-rd, much smaller than
the G-d of the Universe--why should you even care?

That's the point. If she were HONEST it would be one thing. But
she plays this snide game of using specific words to express her
rage and then hides behind the smokescreen as if NO ONE can see
what she is doing.

But wouldn't it be refreshing if she simply EXPRESSED that HATRED?
Would that not take just a little COURAGE to do so in the face of
you Christians?
> But I can't imagine responding to her disdain for

Then you underestimate your own capacity for evil. Christians REALLY
want to say that they HATE the Jews for what they did to the INNOCENT
Jesus and the concoct a RAPTURE by which they escape but the JEWS are
left to burn in the fires of the 'tribulation' because they have
refused to accept Jesus as God.
And this from a religion of LUUUUUUUVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV.

This is a DOCTRINAL statement. It can be found in the books of the
prophets. Idolatry in the Revelation of John is referred to as
whorishness. Mirian is an idolator--in terms of her doctrine of
the 'M'oshiach, the metaphysical 'soul'etc. etc.

You are a case in point. Thanks to them, you, your husband and your

Ann, I am glad that you have shown us this example of Christian love
that you have been taught. Doesn't seem to have taken so long for
this to come out. (BTW the real J was probably nothing like what you
think he was, and I doubt Miraim or I would have a problem with him,
while you would hate him for being too Jewish.)

Whoa, Moshe. I looked at what you wrote above, and my first thought was,
"Moshe is saying that, for Psalm 2 to be referring to Jesus, it would have
to refer to a dying King." I know you're not saying that. Would somebody
who does the logic stuff write out Moshe's statements as some sort of
theorem/proof and draw a conclusion.
I know this seems like a dorky, dumb post, but I'm being serious.
To me, it looked like this:
1. Psalm 2 is not about Jesus
2. Psalm 2 is not about a King dying
3. See Psalm 89.
What I'm wondering is, why--logically speaking--does Moshe include the
second premise? And what is the conclusion? And how is Psalm 89
connected?

No, *you* hate the Jews. You want to speak hatefully. Apparently, you
hate Christians as well. Seems as though you have more than enough hate
to go around.

Well Lora--Samson and Fast Eddy are other shining
examples of xian love.
Anyway, we who have been here a long time do know that Michael does claim
to follow the teaching of yeshu, also Mohammed, if fact michael Eli
professes to have the accurate take on yeshu's pov--so in that regard he
is associated with xianity.

Hey Annette, you adopted another grand Catholic/xian
tradition, blame the victim. Many in Church history have
felt the Jews got what they deserved, nodded and winked
at xian persecution of the Jews throughout the centuries.
I don't hate your deity, in fact I think the character in the NT
is not a real person but an amalgam of several people; what
I do hate is are false claims of fulfilled prophecies and all other
kinds of lies. Lies, like xianity is the religion of love, are abundant
and easily stood on their heads, by actions and remarks such as
yours here. A real xian, would have condemned Michael Eli in
no uncertain terms.
You recently made the claim of being willing to lay your lie down
for someone else, and I said that those are words spoken now
and when put to the test you very likely would do otherwise.
When we mentioned Church endorsed perseuction of the Jews,
you mentioned that there were a few xians who hid Jews and
were jailed for their actions. More lofty words on your part.
I reminded you that too few xians actually lived up to the
xian commandment to lay one's life down for someone else,
hence 6 million innocent Jews went to their matyred deaths.
Your response to Michael Eli, shows what you are made of--
hollow sounds & empty words. Michael is attmeping an
assination here, and rather than taking the bullet yourself
or trying to "stop" him, you stand by and say Michael you're
right Miriam is a Luv A Bitch, she deserves it.
Now don't get me wrong Annette, I don't need your protection,
I can take care of myself; I am merely pointing out that you
are just another failed xian who can not live up to your rhetoric.

Jesus is dead. My love, faith, or devotion cannot help him. My insults or
ill will cannot harm him. Nothing I do affects him in any way.
So what Jews (or anyone else) today may feel about Jesus makes absolutely
no difference. It cannot bring out the worst in anyone. It cannot do
anything at all.
OTOH I recognize that Jesus is the symbol of a great culture. I have no
desire publicly to desecrate the symbol "Jesus" any more than I would want
anyone publicly to piss on the American flag or defile a menorah.
OTOH there are plenty of Christians who get angry simply because we do not
*salute* the flag of a religion we are not members of. I don't salute
Jesus. I don't hate him. "Jesus" is the symbol of another culture and as
such I would respect the symbol "Jesus" the way I would honor the flag of
France. I would neither desecrate nor salute it. I would say nothing
either way. Unless France declares war on the U.S., or unless Christians
attempt to win Jews away from Judaism in the name of Jesus. Then I might
get forced off of my neutrality.
Annie, that is exactly what this newsgroup IS. A place for missionaries to
do their thing and get the reaction they get. And above all, to keep the
discussion off of the mainstream Jewish newsgroups.) It's that gritty
realism that makes alt.messianic so compelling to those of us who have
nothing better to do with our time. Don't whine about it. Y'all made the
first move. Y'all want us to convert. We have no corresponding interest in
taking over your culture. Wave your flag on your soil, we will show it due
respect. Try to plant it on our soil, and we will burn it. Welcome to the
real world.

1. Psalm 2 is not about Jesus (which btw should probably be proven given
its content)
2. Psalm 2 does not refer to the king dying (contradicting Annettes claim
that psalm 2 provides evidence that both Jews and Gentiles but Jesus to
death)
3. Psalm 89 (the psalm appears messianic I'm not sure what the point of
the reference is it is not made explicit).
Actually you have it correct below. This is in the form of 3 unconnected

reference.

Well, I have seen people on this board jump up and demand an apology on
behalf of another participant who was the target of very vicious, or very
careless, words. I have seen people demand apologies for themselves, for
real or perceived wrongs.
And I suppose if you feel that Miriam has wronged you, then you are within
your rights to demand an apology.
For my part, I don't think Miriam owes me any apology at all. (I'm
calling myself a Christian here, in case nobody is noticing.) "The
servant is not greater than the Master," you know. He's the one being
insulted, and if he can take it, I can take it. To tell you the truth, I
haven't even been offended at all by what Miriam has said. I don't feel
personally wronged. And, to be quite honest, I don't think Jesus takes it
personally either. (Jeff, *don't* jump on my theology here. I'm speaking
from that emotive/intuitive mindframe, so just let it pass ;-)
I know. I can hear it coming: "If you had any real love for the L-rd,
you'd..." I'd what? I'd remember, "If you love me, keep my
commandments." I've got enough to do to worry about that, without
hyperventilating every time someone calls Jesus an "ill-tempered crank,"
or a "godsicle" or whatever. It's really between Miriam and Jesus;
they'll work it out between them.

As far as I can tell the AOL softare does quite a bit. But there are lots
of different versions, they change it all the time, and the defaults are
set badely. But there certainly are AOL posters who get the system
running smoothly.

Oh. How very, very sad.
So it's a second generation loss. I know of a number of people like that
(I seem to have a collection, in fact.) Some of them weren't even aware
they were Jews until they were adult - and only one has found her way
back. She was very surprised when she and her children did not have to
convert.
Tomorrow, we are going to the bris of a boy born to a Jewish mother and a
non-Jewish father. Jonathan will be sondek at the parent's request
(Orthodox mohel aware of the situation.) We know that this little boy
will be raised in ignorance of his heritage, and that there will be little
we can do to change that, other than being among Mommy and Daddy's
religious friends. He will not be baptized, of course, not that that
matters. We can still hope and pray that he will come to embrace his
heritage.
Your children will be lost. Your son will probably not find a Jewish wife
unless he returns (God willing!), so your grandchildren by him will
certainly not be Jewish. And your daughter's children will be even sadder
- Jews who probably will not even be aware of this fact. I know of people
like this. And thus the Jewish people will be poorer and smaller.

I can't comment on Toldet Yeshu. Mamzer is not a term of hate, it's a
technical term. There are even discussions in the Talmud about a mamzer
Kohen gadol. Godsickle is a term of derision, not hatred. And anyone
who destroys a fruit tree for not bearing out of season is A. violent and
B. a crank. That still doesn't mean we hate him - it means we deplore his
conduct.
If you search all of Jewish literature, you will find little about that
man. You might find comments about his followers and what they've done to
us, or how we should relate to non-Jews in general. Mostly, Jewish
literature *ignores* him and his followers as it has more important things
to worry about.

@you are 'worse than a whore'.
Yes, he did. No one said you said that Annette.
Your problem is that you agreed with him implicitly
by saying that I deserve his attack.
@And as for "xian love", having seen the vitriol that you especially as
@well as some other Jews here espouse for Jesus, I can understand why a lot
@of things that happened, happened.
Annette, I ought to warn you, that you are digging yourself
into a dark, dark pit' you are showing yourself to be an anti-semite.
Our history has had many unfortunate cases of Jews converting
to xianity and then turn on their people and heritage further by
pouring gasoline on the fire of xian anti-semitism.
Do you realise that you are saying, that the only Jew is a quiet
and cowering Jew?
There is only so much that even
@Christians will take when people continually hammer away at their faith
@and mock their beloved Savior.
So your "saviour" is extremely limited Annette?
What happened to yeshu living in you?
Your comments here underscore the point I have
been making in other parts of this thread and on
the issue of abortion, that xians speak a lot of rhetoric
and spout idealistic modes of behaviour, but when the
shit hits the fan--you'll revert to basic human instinicts
like the Will of Survive--kill the fetus and SAVE the mother
afterall you have the rest of your life to feel guilty or repent!
Miriam, you CAN'T CONTINUALLY blaspheme
@Jesus and mock the faith of Christians and then expect them to DEFEND YOU.
I don't expect you or any other xian to defend me Annette,
that's exactly point, which was proven 6 million times over
in Europe not too long ago. Either you stand up for decency
and morality Annette or you are a fraud to your rhetoric.
I think Bob Felts, who called you "sister", can explain to you
the great error of your ways here. Bob tells us that there
are really very few xians, and that those who call themselves
xians aren't. Bob, do you think Annette is in that category?
"Not everyone who calls lord, lord will enter the
kingdom of heaven ONLY those who obey my commandments."
@Christians are bound to forgive those who insult THEM, but not those who
@mock the Savior.
According to the NT you are 100% wrong on this matter
Annette, the earth is shaking beneath your feet, turn your eyes
to some of the alledged last words of yeshu hanotzeri
"Father, forgive them for they know not what they do."
Luke 23:34
And in another location:
"Any one who insults the son of man will be forgiven,
but anyone who insults the holy spirit will not be forgiven."
Matt 12:32
Don't you folks call yeshu "the son of man"?
@You CANNOT continually hammer away at Jesus with the intent of stirring
@them up and insulting their most beloved Savior, and then cry "anti
@semitism! antisemitism!" when they take offense and blast back in defense

THEN START ATTRIBUTING QUOTATIONS CORRECTLY.
Annette, don't play dumb anymore. I have emailed you telling you how to
attribute quotes in your posts, and I've posted to this board. So don't
act like nobody's tried to help you.
One more time, here's a hint: LOOK at the format of others' posts on the
board. Make your format look like theirs.
When we're quoting somebody else, we say, "On such and such a date,
so-and-so wrote:"
Then we offset their quotes by some symbol in front of EACH LINE OF TEXT.
Maybe a = or a > or a ? -- SOMETHING, some non-textual symbol, which lets
people know, "What you are reading now is not what I said."
You have noticed that there are layers of quotes--people quoting people
quoting people. The most recent layer--the person you're quoting
directly--only has one symbol in front of it. The person *they're*
quoting has two symbols, and so on.
Here's an example. Let's pretend you write this post. You would say:

That's about as basic an example as I can think of.
Please DO NOT whine about how people attribute to you things you didn't
say. If you follow this format, nine times out of ten they'll get it

Indeed there is. You can insult us all you want. That's easy to
ignore. Insulting Jesus Christ, however, is even worse than insulting,
say, my wife. Pretend you called my wife every name in the book
and then, one day, needed my help. Jesus Christ demands that I help
you; but you sure haven't made it easy.

If you prick us, do we not bleed?
Almost in so many words, this is what the rabbis of Israel have
said to me over the last 19 years--that they do not need the
Truth; that they are not in need of any protection when they
ignore the Truth.
It is for reasons such as this that I refer to Israel as a WHORE.
Michael (Daniel 12:1, Sura 2:98, Column XVII of 1QM)
Then you are a failedl xian, in fact your mentality is
exactly the mentality of all the xian murderers and butchers
of the Jews throughout the centuries who came to the concluison
that the Jews deserve what they get for rejecting the xian god.
Or to put it in yeshu's words:
"...love your enemies, and pray for those who persecute you.." Mat.5:44
Or the parable of the Good Samaritan (Luke 10:25-37) where yeshu tries to
show a "scholar of the law" that loving your neighbor means helping even
those who are considered outsiders to the faith.
Your inability to follow yeshu's demands when called upon in this real
situation shows that you talk the talk, but can't walk the walk. If you
can't stand for the truth and the right in a mildly trying circumstance
like this one, how do you ever expect to stand up to even greater tests?

Mamushka,
In case you have not noticed, the very purpose of alt.messianic is
spirited debate between Jews who reject Jesus and those who wish to
convince them that they are wrong. Temperaments and emotions being what
they are, expect to see "non-believing" Jews blaspheming your Jesus,
just as we expect to see Jesus-believers blaspheming our Rabbis, teachers,
and heritage.
We do not live in a Catholic-controlled environment where "blasphemy of
Jesus" condemns one to being an object of aggression, torture, and death.
I suspect you are going to find that, of the active participants of
alt.messianic, you are the only Christian who holds the sentiment of
"Hey, you dissed my god--f*ck ya!".
We have a tenacious understanding here, that attacks on each other's
religions sometimes happen. While we often respond in the heat of passion
with various depreciatory remarks, we do not take them hatefully or
personally.
You will very often find two people shredding each other to bits in one
thread and fighting side-by-side in another. alt.messianic is unlike any
other newsgroup on Usenet. If you cannot stand the fact that there are
Christians here willing to deal with the fact that there are Jews who do
not take Jesus as seriously as they do, you are in the wrong newsgroup.

This is really scary. History-in-miniature. Being played out right here.
Step 1: The Church loves us so much it has to assimilate us.
Step 2: We refuse to be absorbed (and are even a little nasty about it).
Step 3: The Church declares us enemies of God, unworthy of its protection.
Step 4: Some Christians get the hint and actually attack us, while the

the mindset of the xian anti-semite.

Why? Miriam is hardly one to damn with faint praise, and I was very glad
to think that I seem to her to be following the path of my faith, and I
was grateful to her for that word of encouragement. And I do wish her to
be blessed. So there.
I will say this: who we are on this newsgroup can't be taken for who we
"really" are, in our life off the 'Net. (I know--IS there life off the
'Net?) If Miriam could see me in my day-to-day life, it's possible that
she might rethink her comment. "Girl, you'd better straighten up!" might
be the first thing out of her mouth. I don't know.
I don't know how any of you live day in and day out. It's possible that
each of us is pretending to be a little better than we really are. Or a
little worse. Even you, Samson, might not really be a jerk after all.
Maybe you're just a strolling troller who likes to act the fool, and maybe
you cry easily, and maybe you are a kind and gentle father. Who knows?
G-d knows. G-d knows how we live. "His eyes behold, His eyelids test the
sons of men..." I would be so glad if my conduct on alt.messianic
represented me at my very worst--I would be so glad if here, on this
forum, I just slogged along in mediocrity of character. Unfortunately,
sometimes what I do on alt.messianic is the best that I do all day. (I
know--"She must have some pretty rotten days.") And those are the days
when I thank G-d for His unfailing mercies, His abundant grace.
I don't have a real signature yet. Just haven't been able to settle on
something. It's hard to get to the bottom-line, you know? But lately I'm
thinking that I like this one:
"Let us lay aside every encumbrance, and the sin which so easily entangles
us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, fixing
our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith..."
If I'm on that track, I'm on the right track.

As far as I am concerned, the term y'shu does not express hatred. It
expresses contempt for the image that has been built around a person, who
may or may not have existed, by the snake oil salesman Paul. Perhaps it
may also be a little pity for whoever the person may have been whose
original identity has been lost behind the mask of "jesus". Actually,
since the name "jesus" seems to be a Hellenization of the term <yud> <shin>
<vav> used in the censored parts of the talmud (and as used in the Old
English which called him "jesu") the term y'shu seems to be the most
accurate representation of the original name, no matter how the name was
derived.
