You didn't acknowledge that some churches speak out against proselytizing to Jews, that Jews and Christians often work together for a common good, that during WWII there were Christians who went before the firing squad or died in the camps rather than turn in their Jewish neighbors...

Yup, the Jews were persecuted throughout history. In other news, Earth revolves around the Sun.

But you just look silly trying to make it sound as if the obliteration of Judaism is the goal of the Christian Church in this day my and age.

And you aren't even really Jewish anyway lol.

I for one am longing for that redemption day!
I got into a Johnny Cash kick about 10 years ago when I got a copy of his greatest hits from a co-worker. I've since gone out and bought the album. Love his old stuff.

Luke was there before Jesus was born to verify this?! Seriously?!

He did research. He stated as much. I'm sure he interviewed Mary.

And you believe that was why it was founded? That Jesus commanded Christians to go forth and bully and prey on the vulnerable?

Got a verse to support that?

None of the writers of the four accounts say: "I think Jesus said this or that." No. They are direct quotes from the Master.
The apostles were dead by the time those were written...So...No ear-witnesses...
