What I meant to say was - Although the various lists are in accord with one another in many ways, they are not mirror images. They do have differences….

The concept that the Torah contains 613 commandments goes back to the sage Simlai who is quoted to that effect in the Talmud (Makkot 23b). Here's the thing though. Simlai did not provide a list, Although the list developed by Maimonides has become kind of the go to list that people use, it is...

If I expressed my opinion that both the lady, whose doctorate by the way is not connected to science, and her rabbi husband are both, in at least some ways, a sandwich short of a picnic, would I surprise you? I'll try to escape real life long enough to flesh out my response so both you and...

@Autumn - Then cite the sections of Bible that provide verification of what you are saying.

No.

You seek a way to explain things in ordinary language that everyone can understand? Really?

The problem does not lie with concepts, subject matter. Those can be, it's true, difficult to express. However, in your case, here, and in other posts on the forum, the basic problem is your apparent English writing deficiencies. Saying that is not a reflection on your character or your ideas...

You’re going have to find a workable solution to your inability to write in English. Both of your posts border on, and even cross into, incomprehensibility.

It is apparent that English is not your native language. Just curious what your native language is. As to your question regarding the age of the Torah, the first thing I need to know is what exactly you are asking.

Four years after I originally posted that I have no idea what the video was.

@Guru @Autumn - So, in trying to be informed where would you go, what source would you use, to get the least biased information?

I don’t think you’ll find many, if any, Christian faiths that would approve, at least based on the Hebrew scriptures, but I am not a Christian. Christian members of the forum can probably give you a more definitive answer.

@badger - Perhaps you meant excommunication, not execution regarding Martin Luther?

I’m confused. You posed a question. Thankfully, @Thomas was here to provide a clear and concise answer, noting without criticism that you had apparently misunderstood what Jesus had been saying. Your response seemed to indicate that you thought that Thomas had not correctly understood what you...

That’s not what the Bible says. Where did you get the idea that it does?

Do I believe in G-d? Yes. However, the video you posted is no more compelling than any of the other myriad restatements of the argument from design. Do you anything else to share on the subject or anything else on your mobile mind? Welcome to the forum.

If the king was, in fact, Balak as you indicated in a later post, then your description here of the incident is wrong, at least according to the Bible, starting in Numbers 22. This raises some questions. Did you read the story in the Bible, but misread, misunderstood or misremembered the story...

What about the paintings from other parts of the world that depict a Jesus who looks like a man from those parts of the world? The color of Jesus’ skin remains an open question. I do have to wonder if there is some agenda behind your description of Jesus as a “Palestinian person of color”.

Is there a contest to see which forum member can file the most incomprehensible post? The only thing consistantly identifiable in your posts is your condescending arrogance.
