Mods, We Really Need a Jewish Forum....

[Marnie]

Jews are too busy doing important things. We don't get very many of them here.

They're far less pushy about their religion. They're just cool doing their Jewy things.

The actions of Israeli Charedi are really in no way representative of all of Judaism. This is extreme behavior even to most Jews.

I agree but when they do act like fucking maniacs fairness demands that they be treated equally with the jesus-freaks and towel-heads.

Can't discriminate, can we?

Oh what the hey...give the Jews their own forum...at least you can say you are not discriminatory Tiberius

Some of them are really doing some stupid stuff lately.... might make a nice change and let the xtians know that they aren't the only loonies on the planet.

Often though discussion revolves around YHWH and historical inaccuracies in the OT. I'd say all of that should be kept separate from the Christian threads.

Go ask a bunch of Jews whether the Old Testament is literal, and I'd wager most of them would laugh in your face.

Correct, Divi Tiberio, but the loonies have to be watched.

Jews are too busy being comedians to care.

I typically find that the Jews rarely do stupid stuff. Certainly not on the scale of Christianity / Islam, hence why they don't really deserve their own forum.

It's only not on the scale because the number of religious Jews is tiny compared to Christians and Muslims. Orthodox Jews do some stupid and sometimes heinous things. For Example: http://m.nypost.com/p/news/local/circumc...5432IvveMI
