Of some interest to me is the reason to believe the seven nations should be annihilated; "defeated, destroyed, smashed and burned" and/or why people may be driven to violence "in the name of God." Is the reason because they were idolaters then?
Yes. And their idolatry would cause a downfall within the Jewish people. But, as noted, there are opinions that say that they need not be destroyed if they abandon their idolatry as part of a peace treaty.
Thought I would bump this thread because when it is up, more people will post.
The Converts
Three Jews who had recently converted to Christianity were having a drink together in a posh restaurant. They started talking about the reasons for their conversions.
“I converted out of love,” said the first. “Not for Christianity, but for a Christian girl. As you both know, my wife insisted that I convert.”
“And I,” said the second, “I converted in order to rise in the legal system. You probably know that my recent appointment as a federal judge may have had something to do with my new religion.”
The third man spoke up: “I converted because I think that the teachings of Christianity are superior to those of Judaism.”
“Are you kidding?” said the first man, spitting out his drink.
“What do you take us for, a couple of goyim?”
the proposed hillel calendar.
Does anyone genuinely observe every point?
Specifically when to begin the omer count.
18And associated with the bread, you shall bring seven unblemished lambs in their [first] year, one young bull, and two rams these shall be a burnt offering to the Lord, [along with] their meal offering and libations a fire offering [with] a spirit of satisfaction to the Lord.
Seven lambs, one bull, two rams.
10. Days from pesach yecheskel has a vision of a man in fine linen.?
To be specific I need help reconciling what has been said about hillel with Torah and prophets.

I don't know what I am, I believe in Judaism, I believe in all the appointed Sabbaths and feasts, and I think I should have the right to go up to Jerusalem to watch Israel keep their feasts like a spectator.
It's a people's culture and heritage that I adore, I just wasn't born amongst them.
