1. here is my own dialogue
observer ,   Egypt   (03.05.11)
I used to mix meat and milk in the same cooking utensil for my dinner through out the lat 20 years. Do I have to get exchange blood transfusion before converting to Judaism?
2. Here it is,( the short version): Jesus was another Jewish
tom ,   tel aviv   (03.05.11)
yingal'eh with a Messiah -complex. We didn't buy it , he got killed, end of story... Now go, talk to the lampe!!
3. We have to work together.
Luiz Felipe Haddad ,   Niteroi, Brazil   (03.05.11)
As a Christian and Roman Catholic, that repudiates the awful actitudes against the Jewish people during several centuries, I dare to tell you, Israelian brothers and sisters: Give a chance to reconciliation. You have suffered very much, but we have suffered, also, under atheistic systems and under indifference into the modern world. Now, we must work together for a better world, refounded in liberty and solidarity. Above Inquisition's and fascist's friendship's past darknesses, we ought to build a lightened future. The Cross and the Star of David represent the refered good and permanent ideals.

no - just your head examined. honestly - you dont have enuf tzures at the moment?
5. It's all nonsense...and the Pope is senile..
Edithann ,   USA   (03.05.11)
Logic and Roman law disprove it as Jesus was never a threat to Rome, only to the Jews...So don't be so quick to claim victory guys and you can bet no Catholic is buying it... ... There must be an AIPAC equivalent at the Vatican working damn hard to have that senile old man make such an outlandish lie and expect anyone to believe it.... It's obvious the main concern of this article is 'how to implement' the new brainwashing of Catholics, when it's so easy to brainwash Jews...and therein lies the problem .... hahahahaha TATA. ...
6. # 3...Sounds good, but you don't know
Edithann ,   USA   (03.05.11)
anything about Judaism...start reading that Torah and Talmud...and then study what the Jews have done to Palestine and the Palestinians. TATA

Hey Tom, I have news for you. Lord Jesus is not dead. He is living today. He rose from dead on the third day as he promised. It is historical. He is the coming King! Accept him as your Lord and Savior today. Read Psalms 2 Last verse.

it's interesting that the real topic of this article is about ignorance of judaism. you exemplify that ignorant body 100% from what you wrote here. let me, as a jew enlighten you: 1. almost all jews around the world are NOT KOSHER. that means that they eat meat and dairy at the very same time. they also use one set of utensils for cooking meat and dairy and they do not have separate dishes for meat and dairy. i would guess that most jews, a huge percentage of them in israel and in the diaspora are not hallal and not kosher. that means they do not buy kosher food or dairy or meat products. this is very true in israel as it is in the diaspora. i would venture to say that the percentage of non kosher practicing jews is at 80-90% both in israel and more so in europe and in the usa. 2. it's not easy to find strictly kosher restaurants in israel. most israelis go to restaurants that use the same utinsils and dishes for meat and milk and eat both at these restaurants at the same time. 3. most jews in europe and the usa are affiliated with THE REFORM MOVEMENT! not really judaically kosher, to say the least. it is the LEAST OBSERVANT MOVEMENT IN THE WORLD OF JUDAISM. 4. THE IDF AND IAF are not kosher. some units are strictly kosher, but most are not. 5.most israelis and jews in diaspora eat at strictly unkosher restaurants where dairy and meat products are eaten at the same time and also eat shrimps, crabs, lobster, etc... that are not kosher. 6. it is only in islam that you can't do all the above, or you do it in absolute secret...god forbid your tongue will be cut off or you will be hanged for blasphemy and being anti islam. judaism is a religion of acceptance and tolerance. it doesn't hang you or condemn you to death for apostasy or for leaving the religion. islam DOES! also, judaism is based on asking questions, discussing, arguing and individuak forms of expression without restrictions. ISTALM DOES NOT! 7. in the jewish tradition or religion, NO ONE MURDERS YOU IF YOUR DAUGHTER DECIDES TO MARRY A CHRISTIAN OR A MUSLIM. ISLAM DOES. IT DOES MURDER THE FEMALE THAT DOESN'T WANT TO MARY A MUSLIM AND CHOOSES SOMEONE OF ANOTHER RELIGION. so, before you make fun of judaism, please understand that it is your religion, islam THAT IS THE MOST VILE, INTOLERANT, MURDEROUS AND BACKWARDS OF ALL RELIGIONS. you know it. i know it and all the civilized world knows it. look at all muslim countries and muslims and you will end up crying. please do not convert to judaism. it is too beautiful a religion and a way of life for you. you, of all people, will never understand the beauty of a religion that is NOT ROOTED IN barbarism, lack of education, primitivism, intolerance, backwardness, murderous, oppressive, despotic and a complete lack of modernity, freedom, intelligence and any advancement to humanity. do us a favor. stay in egypt and collect the garbage off the cairo streets that have not been collected for the past 2 years. it really stinks there. i have been to cairo. i know!

you can believe whatever you want to believe, but i can guaratee you 100% that jews will never accept jesus because they believe in only one god and he had no son. understand now? so do not impose your beliefs on jews. they believe differently than you do and leave them alone already. stop trying to ave them. it is the other way around. jews have saved humanity, gave it its mono religion of one god for all. stop trying to save them and please, save yourself.
11. #8 I'll put it the other way round
observer ,   Egypt   (03.06.11)
If I were keeping on kosher diet for the last 20 years, would the Rabbis allow me to convert to Judaism? In Islam, you don't have to go into the difficult path of proving ethnicity or the life threatening head transplantation.
12. 11 - islam isn't a difficult path??
mike ,   israel (formerly usa   (03.06.11)
well i guess if taking on petty racial hatreds as your own and excusing suicide murder targeting defenseless women and children (for those who don't want to doing the exploding themselves) islam is pretty easy. like you said, no need for a "head transplant". just be willing to blow it off your body. easy.
13. to #11 that cause Islam get all the demented
ghostq   (03.06.11)
loonyes, in other culturs you need to prove you worthy.
