The same type of person is the one who puts others on ignore. They're afraid of being challenged.
Oh don't we know them, TD, don't we know them.
Surely, can't say a word about them... As no matter what you say, unless you are kin, it's "offense".

Yes, and you may have some people conned, but I remember when you added the word "Jews" to your "ignorant, savage, superstitious" epitaphs, before it got deleted in a post. You and your motives are transparent, even if you think you and they, aren't. Peace

you seem more concerned about pushing something false as the truth. so respect, or deserves, got nothing to do with it for some of us. It just "how it works."

yes, we can add jewish ancestors, polish ancestors, or whoever's ancestors when we are talking. But the fact is, he has been clear about "ancestors" meaning all people before us in times like iron age, bronze age, or whatever age.

If we are talking about christian's, we are correct in bringing up jewish bronze age people's when needed for communication.

But I get it, I am learning (in the usa) that pointing to a single event or person is "bigot" and/or 'racist" as the way a group of people deceive another group of peoples. They do that to cover up truth, justice, and liberty for all. To bad it took me 50 years to learn it.

No, we're more concerned with those who push facts as truth when the facts are false.

We were discussing the originators of the Christian religion who were ancestors of today's Jews because Jesus was an ancestor of the Jews. But my characterization of the mindset of OUR ancient ancestors is accurate and applies to ALL of our ancestors during that era. The deletion was probably due to your inappropriate taking of it as an insult to today's Jews, as you still want to do.

The problem with this criticism is it equates traditional interpretations of ancient writings by our ancestors who lacked significant knowledge with facts and it disses actual scientific facts, knowledge and understanding accumulated over thousands of years.

mystic your stance is consistently one of conceit.
there have been brilliant people and enlightened sages in every generation.

you seem to have a problem with that.
