One of the concepts that perturb me about Christianity and Islam (there are many things, but this is just one), is how atheists are viewed, and by extension, treated. The Bible even resorts to name calling by labeling them as fools. In my opinion, an omnibenevolent G-d would not call his...
Like for Islam this would be "Arab" yes?
Well yes, I know not all muslims are arabs, and actually not ALL jews are of jewish ethicity, just gosh dang most of them.
Oh hey, common sense prevails, one would call them an Israelite or Israeli or something like that right?
First off I am not racist or a bigot in anyway. I have just found it rather interesting how many Jews are celebrities as well as some of the richest people in the entire world. I guess my real question is are there any historical reasons for this?
Like the early Jewish texts and any Jewish Folklore that may have been passed down? Or something that goes into detail on how the Torah was put together.
So I have no idea if this has any significance whatsoever, but after an encounter with Jesus at the altar, I lifted my head in the EMPTY church when I heard the small jingling rhythm of bells. I thought of it as just peculiar, and headed on home. In the wind again I heard the small melody. So...

society a weakness? i am trying to be open minded here but i live near a hasidic community and i find that they will be polite but they often stubbornly keep to their rules and keep themselves to themselves.
now whilst i accept that not every single person in the community is like that and...
many told me God but I am not sure, how did Mose wrote the words from God about the creation when he was in the desert? I learned ezra or someone at that time during the exile of babylon the torah was written but never during the 40 years of the israelites in the desert?

Or was he perhaps one of Mel Gibson's anti-Semetic mates ?
I asked my step son and his friends why they were going to see tthe movie since they were not religious. They just replied that they wanted to see Jesus get beated up and tortured for two hours and get nailed to a cross.

2% in Palestine, 68% in Israel, and 30% in the united states
20 years ago they were a bit more and according to statistics there getting more and more less

And shed his blood as ransom for our sins, and then rose for our redemption (by the power of god, well-pleased with his begotten son).
So that the kingdom may be empowered to take root. Not in the future (as surmised till now). But, as he told the high priest of the jews, "Henceforth," which...
