See that list of newsgroup up there, Cindy? Do you see one or two that
aren't like the others? Do you think maybe your "Good Fight" might be
out of place in those groups?

I don't know about Ilya, but I sure do! Here are some brand-new lies!

1) The mold that grows on cheese is composed of millions of tiny
confused astronauts!

2) The Galileo probe didn't actually get sent into Jupiter -- it was
actually sent back in time to assassinate Kennedy!

3) Babe Ruth was the best president the Soviet Union ever had, and it is
for that reason that there is a statue in his honor in the center of
Canberra, Austria!

4) Crossposting stuff to more than five USENET newsgroups causes sheep
to walk backwards!

That was very liberating. Thank you!

That's one, but you really need to try harder if you're going to get
thoroughly hooked. You need to also take a swipe at academia
(preferably at the same time including more misspellings,
ungrammatical sentences, and odd punctuation) and you need to say
something meany-headed about tech writers. Only then will I consider
you to have been trolled.

Hop to it!

Hey, HEY HEY!!! You can't just barge into this chat-BBS and call Kevin
Wilson a "little moron" This is TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE!!1 He weighs over
TWO HUNDRED POUNDS and has been known to eat over ten pounds of pulled
pork at a sitting!! So if you want to call him names, GET IT RIGHT and
call him a BIG MORON. What a maroon.

No, these issues don't concern anyone except Christians and those they try
to convert. It has no bearing on Buddhism and Hinduism, to name just two
newsgroups. Those who desire to be "educated" regarding these issues would
visit Christian and Jewish newsgroups.

One would think they'd go to the library, the bookstore, a synagogue
or a church if they were really interested.

Cupcake refers to himself in the third person. Cupcake reminds swt of Bob
Dole. swt makes 240mL cakes instead of cupcakes, because swt is on the
metric system.

But while we're talking about religion and gay guys, I heard about a recent
letter to the editor. The author wrote, in reference to Gene Robinson's
appointment, "I'm just thankful that the church's founder, Henry VIII, and
his wife, Catherine of Aragon, and his wife, Anne Boleyn, and his wife, Jane
Seymour, and his wive, Anne of Cleeves, and his wife, Catherine Howard, and
his wife, Catherine Parr, are no longer here to suffer through this assault
on the traditional Christian marriage."

P.S. I have an elegant proof that Jesus is not the Messiah, but this post is
too small to contain it.

I have made this post too large to contain my elegant proof because I

That is true, though there isn't much discussion to be had at a bookstore
and church, and many of us don't live near a synagogue, mosque, Temple, or
other place of worship. Furthermore, there aren't a wide variety of
opinions to be found in such places, as opposed to public forums.

Which part of the site? There was a discussion about the Jewish
Messiah, but there are direct quotes from the Bible that say
specifically that the Messiah was supposed to show up in 32 AD, that
he was supposed to be rejected by people, etc.

Correct. The site clearly lists the requirements for the Jewish messiah, and
it is easy to see that Jesus fulfilled none of these.

> specifically that the Messiah was supposed to show up in 32 AD,

Yes, *a messiah,* NOT Jesus. If you're referring to Daniel 9:25-26, the
*cut-off messiah* is the high priest Alexander Yannai. I have provided this
proof on several occasions, the most recent being less than 2 weeks ago on
this (SCJ) forum. The proof may also be found on the Jews for Judaism
website, if I am not mistaken.

Let us pause now to contemplate the mind-boggling arrogance of someone

The Hebrew word is "almah" (young woman) not "betulah" (virgin) and that is
just for starters.
You can cut and paste lists of all your verses and so-called prophecies
(including the Christian bible which is irrelevant to Jews) until you're
blue in the face, and it won't change the fact that Jesus did not fulfill
the requirements for being the Jewish messiah.

Wow, you *truly* have standards! I can respect that.

Speaking of those standards, someone flamed me with a swipe at academia
that included misspellings, ungrammatical sentences, and maybe some odd
punctuation in a Diablo 2 thread. Should I tell the him that HHBT? I may
have been trying to provoke him through deliberate use of the
Architect's speech to construct my post, but I haven't yet been able to
determine if this was my true motivation.

Not always. Believe it or not, there are Christians out there who actually
believe that everyone shares their attitude about missionizing (that it's
welcome and a good thing). Many of them find it surprising that Jews do not
missionize and would not find it offensive if we did. I realize that I will
probably not stop this Shambat goon, but I want to make the Jewish position
perfectly clear to anyone else who, in all innocence, may have mistakenly
believed that a little missionizing on the Jewish group seemed like a good
idea. Jews do not missionize. We do not want anyone to missionize to us.
Why?

Any Jew who *accepts* Jesus or or directs a prayer to him or uses him as an
intermediary is a heretic, a sinner, an apostate, and an idol worshipper who
has completely rejected the Jewish religion, faith, culture, and people.
Such a person loses all the rights and privileges of being a Jew along with
his place in the World to Come. Such a person remains a Jew in name only,
and the only thing left to him (as a Jew) is his obligation to repent of his
sin. This is according to Jewish law and is not a matter of opinion. The
Reform movement, which does not follow Jewish law, holds that any Jew who
accepts Jesus is no longer Jewish at all.

So, in one of my Graphic Design classes, one of the things we just got
done doing is designing a Holiday card for people on the Portland
Community College mailing list. There are 14 students in the section,
and we all do one piece each, and a faculty commission decides between
five of them which are sent on to the Big Kollege Kahuna who does the
final deciding.

Now, since these go out to people of every known creed and mythos, so
it has to be value-neutral (aka "politically correct"): it must express
a generic holiday good will message and somehow be as far away from
charged symbols (I think even a dove holding an olive branch is suspect)
as possible. It usually centers on "Happy Holidays", celebrating
community and diversity. Buzzwords from the college's mission statement
("We Like Missions and will visit California soon") go a long way.

Understand that I'm not complaining. I believe that tolerant speech
would go a long way toward preventing our mutually exclusive creeds
from annihliating each other, and are praisworthy as a thing. So, I'm for
it. But, as Bill Cosby once said, I told you *that* story to tell you this
one.

So, we're looking at the examples from years past to get some sort of grasp
of how to approach the design. Now, it's helpful to know that the prior
President of our fine intustition of huger edumacation was Hispanic by
extraction (or birth, even) (and still is, so far as is known) and
was known by the name Dr. Jess Carreon.

His first given name was...

...wait for it...

...Jesus.

So, here am I, looking through these cards, mindful that we are to make them
as culturally average and politcally correct as possible, and here are all thesepast cards with best wishes from Jesus.

The irony was so thick and chunky it ran for City Council. In Oregon, it's got
a chance to be elected because it wants to limit property taxes.

And, there was I, wondering aloud how we were supposed to do value-neutral cards
when Jesus has been signing them for the last few years.

That & the fact that missionizing is rude, arrogant & bigoted.
To missionize is to assume that not only is your religion superior, but that
everyone else is interested in hearing about it, *&* should also switch to
it.

You seem to be a little unclear on the concept. Reasonably enough,
given what you want.

Nobody likes to have their newsgroups spammed. So, say we set up a
spammer's newsgroup and ask all the spammers to post there only. Would
it do any good?

Evangelical christians believe that it's their duty to spam nonchristian
religious groups, and groups of atheists, etc. They believe that Jesus
told them to preach to everybody. If they restricted themselves to
christian newsgroups that would be like *preaching to the choir*.

Telling evangelical christians not to spam your newsgroup is like
telling birds not to fly south for the winter. They just can't hear it.

But I guess, go ahead if it makes you feel better. Spamming our
newsgroups telling birds not to migrate is no worse than what some other
birdbrains are doing.

The original poster crossposted to all of those groups. The original name of
the thread was "Evidence that Jesus is the Messiah." I am the one who
changed the name of the thread. I do that often. I also eliminated a lot of
the crossposted groups (there were a lot more). In answer to you first
question, Christians missionize to the Jewish newsgroup all the time. On any
given day, I would say that we average at least 3. Some of them are very
persistent and argue that their *need* to missionize supercedes our right to
live our Jewish lives, free from others trying to push their religion on us.
Perhaps some of them mistakenly believe that their missionizing is welcome.
We let them know it is not. Thank you for not doing it.

No. The rude bozo is the missionary who posted to the Jewish newsgroup in

What about "Kibological missionizing"? Is that acceptable in any of
those newsgroups? Because kibology is like one of those big box things
fully of buzzy buzzy bees. If you keep poking your stick into that
box, eventually those buzzy buzzy bees are going to buzz on out of
there and start missionizing like anything. And it's very hard to
resist Kibological missionizing! Our branewashing techniques leave
people with the shiniest sparkliest branes in the whole wide world!!

There's a few extree words in there, I think. Also, I like the
concept of "Usenet rules". Where could I find these rules, then? To

Did you know you cut and pasted a whole paragraph from the beginning

if you meant to do it, well, that's different.

Yes, we do - but that has nothing to do with the fact that if something is
off-topic, it's off-topic.

It was OK until you followed up you own post, which is sort of like
cheering yourself while masturbating.

Hi. Yeah, okay. Uh, where are these Usenet rules? The ones so many
are supposedly all violating and stuff? Those things? Where are they?
Any time you want to show us the Usenet rules, Susan. It's all you,
baby!

You are dealing with a matter of faith here, so your attempt to prove
anything is doomed to failure. I doubt what you or anyone else says
will change anyone's mind on the subject.

All the world's religions think theirs is the true path, but none of
them can prove it to the point where the other faiths will disappear.

The point is that if they post their views on our group where it is
off-topic at the least, & arrogant & rude at worst, they have to expect that
someone is going to "return the favor." I suppose if Cindy didn't change
the header, I might have.

Amazing how one can answer the question, only to have another idiot pop up &
ask for it again.

In that case, I'm happy to inform you, Susan Cohan (if that IS your real
name!), that by wilfully posting to Alt.Religion.Kibology you agreed to the
implicit mandatory verbal contract to answer any and all idiots' questions,
which you are now obligated to do due to the LAW of USENET! You could tell
our froup was under the mandate of the Law of Usenet since our FAQ is
fringed with gold tassels, if YOU HAD BOTHERED TO READ IT BEFORE SPAMMING
US! In fact, not reading a FAQ before posting is a violation of the Usenet
TOS or AUP (whichever is applicable may depend on your ISP) and can result
in getting your Usenet connection cut! Consider yourself reported.

See, the problem is that the first rule of USENET Club is that you're
never supposed to talk about the first rule of USENET Club, which means
that whenever anyone starts asking what the rules of USENET are everyone
sort of looks at each other uncomfortably for a while and then, if
you're lucky, someone turns out to be a rogue AI with the sparks and the
exploding heads and all. It's a good party trick but it's not really
conducive to a polite and speedy transfer of information.

IGNORANCE OF THE RULES IS NO EXCUSE FOR IGNORANCE OF THE RULES!
