Heritage takes precedence over anything and everything else because being born Jewish meant that you were spontaneously special in the eyes of God and that everyone else was just a gentile. Special??? I guess many Jews were thinking that when they were being butchered in the Holocaust. Many Jews hide their culture and race for belief that they would be tormented. I know many Jews who are afraid to wear any Jewish Jewelry for fear of being harassed and you wish to put words in our mouth of thinking we are special...... Get over it Christos your jealousy is pouring all around you but this jealousy has been fabricated by you not some gloating Jew. Simply put mind your own business for you are not a Jew.... No your just one of those puffed up self proclaimed Christian that deems to tell a Jew how to live their life. My wife asked you a question way back about why Jesus was born a Jew if in fact they were to fall away from him your reply..... Thats a hard question to answer. Now you may think I am puffed up but listen BOZO.... I am not the one calling Jews satanic and I am not the one comparing Jews to Nazi's I am not the one calling Jews Christ killers I am not the one pointing out Jews in the Government or the Media like they are scum your so called Christian brother Emile is and whether you like it or not you are in agreement with him along with your buddy Robert Hall. Get off the Jew thing and worship yourself I can tolerate that better. Alan

"I've heard testimonies by Jews, who before they became Christians had never ever read the old testament for themselves. Heritage takes precedence over anything and everything else because being born Jewish meant that you were spontaneously special in the eyes of God and that everyone else was just a gentile. To read the Old testament was not necessary because the promises were already there and nothing else was needed. If you felt something was lacking in your life you could always just resort to the wisdom of the local rabbis. Jesus said, unless you are born again you shall not enter into the kingdom of God. Have you given this statement much consideration?" Chris, I have no idea whether most Jews ever read the Bible. Probably not, just like most Christians don't either. I base this on personal experience as I was raised in a Baptist church and while I've read the Bible through a number of times over the years (for I've always been a reader, of anything available), none of the other kids I grew up with in my church ever did. That's pretty normal. In my experience, those people who obsessively read and quote the Bible to others all the time, like my own Father, frequently have dysfunctional personalities and just can't relate to others in a normal human manner. Well, I guess living in the Scriptures is better than living in a bottle or something. In answer to your question: Yeah, thirty + years ago but not since then. Here's a question for you. Do you think Christian denigration and demonization of the Jews is the root of anti-Semitism in the western world and is ultimately responsible for centuries of pogroms, riots, expulsions, and the final solution?

The above is the root of your problem Chris....... Get over it.. We are all loved by God. Your attitude is what feeds wars its called Jealousy. Until we learn to respect others and treat others as we would like to be treated senseless killing and torture will never end. Your not Jewish so don't label Jews as thinking they are better than or chosen. Also don't put words in Gods mouth by labeling Jews as dogs in his sight. Your remarks are nothing less than cursing and are very dogmatic. The same goes for your buddy Emile. Alan
