"Hmm. How can you, ...

I am starting to wonder about you. I don't deny that Moses is a foundational part of all Abrahamic religions.

How as you as a human being are not able to recognize sarcasm or use even an ounce of reason when looking at things like major world religions that have spanned centuries and multitudes of civilizations causes me to go ... hmmmmm

"Islam claims to be an Abrahamic faith, that Moses was one of Islam's prophets."

So when you point the finger at Moses, you're pointing the finger at yourself."


I am pointing the finger not at Moses but at someone who insists upon parsing text from religions to demonize multitudes of innocent human beings ... "YOU"

I infact know the richness of history and background of circumstance surrounding that episode with Moses. One that once understood gives it a quite different

"As for Christianity, if you can point out to me anyplace that Christ said to kill anybody, feel free.

Jesus said very little of what is contained in Christianity but one thing Jesus is credited as having said is:

"Matthew 5:17 - not one jot or tittle has passed from the law.

This passage on it's own clearly requires that ALL Mosaic law be observed. Just like the biblical passage describing Moses history on its own does not represent the true nature of Israel and other Abrahamic faiths. This is a Biblical passage and answers your question.

I will not insist however that this explains Christian, Muslim or Israeli values and actions. We both know that is what you expect me to do, as it is what you have been doing.

Jesus' words in Matthew 5:17 - not one jot or tittle has passed from the law.

This is not a discussion on who can attack someone elses religion, while defending their own for any one but you. Least ways I haven't seen anyone else doing that, even though I see you freaking out claiming others are doing that.
