James,

It is far more simple than that. To say that a Christian doctrine claims the "mantle" so to speak fo Judiasim is meaningless. How is it different than a differnt religion laying claim to some aspect of christianity? As a Christian you would find their claim to be baseless.

A Jew would give no more authority to a christian cliaming to be the current day Jew, than a christian would to a Moslem saying that Mohameds words are the end result of christian doctrine.

There are Judaic and even christian scholars all ovewr the world that would disagree vehemently with Emile's contention. Far more than would agree.

I would also like to see you respond to my earlier post about your motivations in this regard. I notice you have not responded to it.

Does it bother you that this event has strenghtened the beleif in Judiasim within the boy who was shot? does it bother you that Jews are persecuted for their beiefs, and historically have been to a far greater degree than Christians? Do you think it even matters in any fashion?

BTW, I notice you didn't stick up for emile or his doctrines when he used them to attack your denomination and your personal history. In fact you were quite against them.

Mark
