I studied Judaism to get a better understanding & found that the Torah & the "old testament" were ever so slightly different. I ended up converting to Judaism & understood why my Baptist bible school teachers rarely explored the "old testament". The preachers might end up converting before it's over! At the very least, they might start leaning their sermons even more in support of Israel.

Avi R. ,   Rishon LeTzion   (07.26.12)
I have seen it time & time again. Whenever someone is allowed to practice the 'REAL McCOY' & EXPERIENCE a living, LOVING G-d, with the ENTIRE TRUTH that comes with it (not to mention the holidays & festivals & people), some feel the full intensity of Judaism, are drawn to it and experience the ultimate fulfilling experience by converting to Judaism.

Are they going to introduce them to some of your spiritual leaders teaching that "Goyim [non-Jews] were born only to serve us. Without that, they have no place in the world – only to serve the People of Israel." "With gentiles, it will be like any person - they need to die, but [God] will give them longevity. Why? Imagine that one’s donkey would die, they’d lose their money. This is his servant... That’s why he gets a long life, to work well for this Jew.” Or to deny Goyim emergency and hospital treatment during sabbath ? http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-4229767,00.html Are they going to meet MK Michael Ben-Ari or visit Yeshiva spitting boys? ,... I wonder if those ladies (foto) in T-shirts and knickerbockers with an exposed calves are going to visit their orthodox brothers and sisters in Mea Shearim ? ;) ,...

Molly Marshall (Southern Baptist, USA, 1994) Marshall resigned from Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in 1994, when a heresy trial was in the offing. A statement from the seminary at the time of her resignation said that her views were "significantly outside the parameters of the Abstract of Principles", but was not more specific. ,...

scholars in Judaism. No leftist baiters like you,who try to palm off extreme views that are condemned and illegal in Israel as the norm. Just as one example of your lying distortion it is illegal for Drs not to treat patients equally & even the Rabbi who said it was desecrating Shabbat, said it CAN be done halachically. You deliberately falsified that.!!! Why are you such a liar.?

a very wise old Indian Chief - the very tribe on whose stolen land you now sit in Silver Bay!! - told me that it's much simpler than your conspiracy theory. The Indian Chief says that the Shalom Hartmann Institute is a nice rice bowl for Anglo rabbis who can't make the cut back home, getting a REAL clergyman's salary. So they run these little (fee-based) seminars. Hey, it's a rice bowl. Every rabbi has his own pet shnur project.
12. The Left has it right this time.
Esser Agaroth ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (07.26.12)
I still feel that I'm one of the few "right-wing" religious Jews in Israel who knows how dangerous these people are. Yishmael has his sword, but Esau has his smile and tongue, dangerous, too, just different and sneaky. Fortunately, the Left has mostly got it right about them: money, manipulation, etc. Unfortunately, some on the left support them, due to "freedom of religious express," worrying that if Christians are limited at all, then who's next? Please don't be taken in by this. The Christians don't just want to attack us spiritually; they want our Land, believing that they are its rightful inheritors.

Luke   (07.27.12)
the spirtual mentor of PM Netanyahu. And leader of a polical party. Netanyahu never condemned the rabbi nor the remarks. All Netanayhy said "it was the government's offical policy" It may be his own, may be the unoffical policy of the government.
15. What?!
Ariel Ben Yochanan ,   Kfar Tapuah, Efraim   (07.27.12)
B"H "Religious pluralism" and "interreligious relations" are NOT Torah concepts and therefore, well, all the consequences of this. Do I need to spell them out? Besides, these "prominent xtian leaders" pray to yeshu, to their man-god, that the Jews see as Avodah Zarah, idol worshipping, strictly forbidden on the Land. They even do it publicly and they are proud of it. So, these SHI people, again, do I need to spell it all out? From a Torah prospective, not at all good, however.
16. Luke specifics please. The Rabbi is what? Source please?

He said? Did Netanyahu agree with him? Yes or No?

Examining the phrase " May his bones be ground to dust". Google takes you right there.

SD Charger ,   San Diego   (07.27.12)
It wasn't given to us, so relax. They are there to study the Torah, not the New Testament. Believing it has changed a few times, they simply want to learn the "original" writings from the best scholars. What's wrong with that?

The Jews have never asked anyone to fight the Muslims for them, whats the matter with you?
