" I've never supported any racism - if you could have found a post where I have you'd have posted it..." That's what I said and you haven't given any examples of my alleged racism. Instead you maintain my racism is evidenced by my "support for Zionism". Actually I'm pretty much indifferent to Zionism or Jewish nationalism. If I were Jewish I think I'd sympathize with Israel. I do that anyway. I wouldn't go there however. I think I would worry that the existence of a Jewish state simply gave the enemies of the Jews (like you) a target for their wrath. I imagine that explains why there are such people as anti-Israeli Jews. My motivation in posting to you and your fellows is based on a personal dislike of bigotry which is what I see very clearly behind your "anti-Zionism" and rantings about the Talmud and Jewish conspiracies to kill Christians and "kosher taxes" etc etc. About "transfer": Of course I'm against it. And I don't think it is likely to happen. Ironically, though, I expect you would love to see it - more ammunition for your crusade. Now since I'm responding to your personal accusations, perhaps you'll tell me when you were invited to "embrace the Talmud"? Message 17886452; Since we are asked to embrace the teachings of the Talmud and various other writings and teachings of the Jewish people,... Nobody ever asked me to "embrace the Talmud". Now when it comes to other writings and teachings of the Jewish people, I guess that would include the Bible. I was taught to embrace that as a child, both at home and at church. Emile, has any one ever asked you to "embrace the Talmud"? I doubt it. I'll take your typical non-response as a No. So what is the basis of your complaint? Even if there are a small minority of Jews who believe the things you claim they do, why should it bother you or me or anyone else? I can think of one reason - if you have a lack of faith in your own Christian beliefs, then I imagine the fact that someone disagrees might be seriously troubling to you. In other words, you may be worried that a negative view of Christ might be right. Is that the case? PS: Any one else who reads this and who has been asked to embrace the Talmud or any other writings and teachings of the Jewish people, not including the Bible, as Emile claims "we" are, please reply and tell me about it.
