Israel is LGBTQ friendly. None of the Arab countries are.

Funny thing, too -- in those cultures, buggering boys is impeccably traditional.

Yes, we saw this first hand during the recent Gazan pogrom.

IDF troops going house to house, school classroom to school classroom, and hospital ward to hospital ward, putting their lives and well-being at considerable risk to evacuate LGBTQ Gazans from hostile environments before levelling their homes, schools and hospitals....

...just kidding, the IDF were (and are) remorseless war criminals who kill anyone and everyone without regard to race, religion, age, or sexual orientation.

"Equal Opportunity Ethnic Cleansing".

Tel Aviv canceled its Pride parade this year out of respect for the hostages still being held in Gaza.

Bring them home now.

The Philistines were a Greek people who lived on the Mediterranean coast during the time of Israel and Judah. The two Jewish kingdoms controlled the interior on the banks of the river Jordan. Even the Philistines never controlled “from the river to the sea”.

Palestine is a better name than Israel or Judea because of its neutrality -- because there are no more Philistines any more.

Even when the British called the land "Mandatory Palestine", the Jews living there called it Eretz Yisrael -- "the land of Israel".

Israel isn't going to change the name it's had for thousands of years to satisfy the whims of antisemites.

Palestinian terrorists are war criminals because they attack civilian targets.

 

[Politruk]

The IDF are war criminals for the same reason.

if the Palestinians keep attacking Israel there will be no more Palestinians.

 

[JohnEngelman]

Ha ha ha ha! Good one!

You should probably get it trimmed back regularly so Jewish Men can feel superior.

Lol

Jewish men have plenty of reasons to feel superior, but they are too humble to brag That is why I do their bragging for them,

 

[JohnEngelman]

The IDF are war criminals for the same reason.

The IDF is fighting a just war against those who want to destroy Israel.

Not at this rate of civilian casualties, they're not. 56,000 dead so far -- Hamas never had that many fighters.

 

[JohnEngelman]

The Palestinians started this war. Now they are paying the consequences.

Religious folks are gullible dangerous idiots and have no place in proper society.

Bigoted atheists have no place in proper society.

Faith is a Christian concept, not a Jewish one.

My Christianity is somewhat similar to your Judaism. i can't prove that God Exists. I hope He does. The complexity of the universe implies a Divine Intelligence behind it. The finite beginning of the Big Bang implies an Infinite Beginner.

I attend church, read the Bible, and try to be a good person. I also study and respect the other religions. I am particularly drawn to Buddhism and Judaism.

Faith is a religious concept. The specific religion is irrelevant.

Faith is a religious concept. The specific religion is irrelevant.

Faith is a Christian concept that people naively assume applies to Judaism. The Torah and the Talmud are real. It takes no faith to believe in their existence.

Religion is a faith based concept.
There is no evidence that god exists.

If you believe in a god, you have faith.

Books are for reading.

Belief is also a Christian concept. Some Jews believe in God, some don’t. Judaism is the same whether or not you believe.

 

[ll74]

Belief is also a Christian concept.

This is incorrect. You believe in your jewish religion.

Some Jews believe in God, some don’t. Judaism is the same whether or not you believe.

Lol
If you read your book and understand it to be true, that is a belief.
You have faith in your belief.

Not sure why you hate on christians so much, but you take it to absurd levels of stupidity.

The Torah was composed by multiple scribes hundreds of years before Jesus. It’s a compendium of the ancient laws and traditions of the Jews. Some of its stories are clearly untrue, but nevertheless its wisdom has stood the test of millennia.

I’m not sure why you’re so eager to force it into the Christian framework of belief and faith. People can read the Iliad (which is about as old) and find wisdom within it with having to believe that it’s literally true.

You're the one who is doing that. You have faith and belief in your religion and for some reason you don't understand that.

Belief isn't a true/false thing. You believe the Torah contains wisdom. You believe that the words help you in some way. You have faith in the words you're reading and the people who share your religious perspective.

As a non religious person, I don't give a fuck about christians or jewish or muslim or buddhist beliefs or faith. I acknowledge that people have beliefs in these things but none are more special than any other.

You do seem to think that your religion is superior based on your posts here... Which isn't much different than christian believers, imo.

Says who?

I also like the egg ElleElle74 laid about faith being a religious concept.

You stupid fuckers are a laff.

I didn't say faith was a religious concept.
