My comment was honest and from experience. The Bible even mentally prepares Christians for the possibility of martydom due to not denying the faith. I am not a Christian anymore. Having been one does, however, mean I know how it feels to be a Christian.
Quoting Padraic in my volcano thread.....'Interesting; I can't dispute that. I said only that Judaism was not monthotheistic BEFORE Exodus. In his recent book,"The Bible Unearthed" Israel Finkelstein reveals that he and others have yfound THOUSANDS of female deity figures all over Israel,dating to about 700bce. These finds indicate that although monotheism may have been the official religion by that time, many people still worshiped the old gods. (Obviously not true jews)'.
'True' Jews.
You don't have a problem with that then.
