The Fundashield Of Determined Ignorance that "BF" wields deflects truth and reason with polished ease.

It's the hallmark of a truly dishonest poster.

You have a biased mind...You are telling Jews that grew up learning Hebrew and Torah that you know it better than we do...

Are Christians a race now? In your opinion.

Why do you believe the teaching you received is better than Hebrew scholars, some of which probably are Jewish?

They're words. They're not magical, or mystical. They're words. They have meaning.

Why do you believe that your Hebrew scholars know Hebrew better than the Jew steeped in it from cradle to grave?...

I was quite clear, I thought. If one's understanding and what they were taught doesn't match up with truth, then they are wrong. EVEN you.

Do you believe it's POSSIBLE that you were taught wrong? That you can be sincerely wrong, and that what you were raised to believe MIGHT be wrong?

My understanding matches up perfectly with the truth, it is you who has the edited version of the truth...
