    Do you think Moses existed as a historical figure?

    Indeed. Like Global Warming Climate Change Disruption... I know. Facts are stubborn things. However, I do enjoy that the first part of my post was worthy of your aversion. And, that you chose to latch onto the one sentence of your "bridge to die on" as worthy of your disapprobation. And...

    Do you think Moses existed as a historical figure?

    Okay. Let's say you want to invent a bunch of stuff. Tell me which parts of the (Hebrew/ Aramaic) Torah you would invent and why. I find the notion that people want to have absolute verifiable facts about historical events that the majority of the world could care less about - such as the...

    Purim: a story of revenge

    Naw, it's a story of G-d's Hidden Hand in This World - “They tried to kill us. We won. Let’s eat!” And…. Drink! “To Life! To Life! L’Chayim! L’Chayim! L’Chayim! To Life! Life has a way of Confusing us, Blessing and Bruising us... So drink to Purim – to Life! G-d meant for us to be joyful even...

    Is Calling Muhammad a Pedophile Islamophobic?

    As noted, I disagree with your first two points. I think you have a very "Western" centric view of planet Earth. Your third point is debatable. There is a very large group of Muslims who believe that their religious dogma requires them to murder people. Then again, the reasons that I cannot...

    Is Calling Muhammad a Pedophile Islamophobic?

    :) Cute! This map shows where the world’s 30 million slaves live. There are 60,000 in the U.S. Women? Great. It is good you live in a place where you treat women well. I would humbly suggest you stay out of parts of Asia; the Middle East; Africa; and South and Latin America. Oy... I'm...

    Is Calling Muhammad a Pedophile Islamophobic?

    If your premise were true, each generation of "moral evolution" would be "more moral" than the previous. As this is obviously historically false, your premise is inaccurate. There is no evidence that morality "improves upon itself over time."

    All humans agree that isis should go

    From whence do you hail? Factions; Families; Tribes; Clans; Sects; all appear to be the ONLY places where loyalties lie throughout most of the Muslim and Arab world. Assad's Allawites keep him going. Remove the Allawites and Assad is gone. The Saudi tribe OWNS all of the Arabian Peninsula in a...

    Is Calling Muhammad a Pedophile Islamophobic?

    What does "morally acceptable" mean? If that is a meaningless phrase based on whatever "morals" any given society favors at any particular time then, who cares? It's a meaningless idea. If all morals come from G-d; a Divine Creator, then yes - consensual sex with a minor is morally acceptable.

    A question for Jews,Chrisians, and Muslims

    I never noticed the highlights. When I did not have a copy of a particular mesechta on hand, I would Google the idea I was looking for and sometimes this site would come up. As far as I knew from my studies, it was accurate so, I never investigated further. Sorry about that. I stand corrected.

    Ooops. I stand chagrined. Sorry about that. You are correct.

    A question for Jews,Chrisians, and Muslims

    No. I didn't check it out. It seemed accurate. Christian site? Doesn't read like a hate site though. Is it?

    Hey Muslims!

    Oops. My bad. Righty-O! Not so small now, are we? Why, the Jews have almost doubled in population in the last 2,000 years!

    Hey Muslims!

    Too much for whom? Compared to whom? And, if you really think that, you need to take up the issue with G-d. Who else other than G-d would have the power to give the smallest and weakest of all peoples "too much power "?

    A question for Jews,Chrisians, and Muslims

    I don't understand your inferences. "Gentiles" are simply non Jews. I am not sure why, but the word "gentile" was translated from the Hebrew "גוי" / "goy", which means "nation" which, in this context would mean "other nations," not Jewish. So, anybody "not Jewish" would be a gentile. I don't...

    Hey Muslims!

    You people funny. Seriously. If the Jewish State of Israel were to be treated the same as any other country (or people) in the world, the only news that you would hear would be the incredible demand for Israeli technology. Israeli and/or Jew hatred would not exist and the Arabs called...

    Why Are You A Virgin?

    Virginity is only important if it is measured against what influences you are surrounded with in This World. I have known several people in my 61 years who are not particularly interested in sexual experiences or relationships. That is just one more indication that Man is not just another...

    A question for Jews,Chrisians, and Muslims

    "Chosen people" has been addressed elsewhere. However - Why did G-d reach out to "non Jews?" The Torah tells us that Esav is Edom; Edom is Rome; and Rome is Christianity. “Rabbi Shimon ben Yochai stated: Halacha b'yadu'a Esav soneh l'Yaakov." - "it is a well known halacha (law) that Esav hates...

    Is this new resource a good idea?

    No. I would use this website if I questions without resources at hand, or to simply check on something that I might be unsure of.... . And, if I had doubts, I would ask my local competent Orthodox rabbi. Why not? If it's useful, use it. If not, don't. I find the bona fides of the website as...

    Are Jews still God's Chosen People?

    You are stating a Christian worldview. That's peachy but, the Jewish worldview is much older. Christianity and other religions are claiming that their newer (improved; bright and shiny; "believe me this time because you got the Word!") interpretation of Torah and Tanach is the correct one as...
