RE: Is Yahweh true? Watch Israel.

No. Yahweh is horseshit like every other god created by humanity. As for Israel try to get it through your thick fundie head that the biggest problem they have is the civil strife between the majority secular jews and the nutty haredim. If you aren't sure what a fundamentalist asshole looks like...consult a mirror.
BTW, that OT that you think is so hot says that your godboy...jesus or whatever...was a total failure as a messiah so you had best be careful about throwing that fucking thing around as an "authority."

An aside: every time you use that example, I imagine that you're making a "
yo mamma so fat" joke. It makes me giggle.
Sorry; back to your discussion now.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

Seems very bizzarre, but I'll assume a 'yes'. btw- you should be a lawyer- 'cos it seems you're trying very hard to fit label me 'dangerous' or 'anti-semitic'.
I'll spell it out- please don't assume anything outside of this...
I believe Israel is the place where Christ will set up his new, everlasting kingdom. I believe it won't be destroyed again. I don't (or shouldn't) vote or try to influence national movements in any way.
That it actualy rather interesting.
So do you simply just want to live your life without being bothered?
I dont want to lable you as anything, I just hate antisemites and I dont think you are in any way dangerous. In the beginning I simply thought you might be one of those people who support illegal west bank settlers - which would be supporting a dangerous group - but you dont - so I was wrong about that.
I thought you were antisemetic when you used the word "wicked" to describe israelis. I probably dont have to tell you that some christians see jews as inharently wicked and evil for crucifying jesus, especialy the catholic church spread alot of antisemitism through this.
I guess you simply meant that those who are sabotaging the peace process are "wicked", although I wouldnt use such vocabulary - I do understand and agree that what those people are doing is wrong.
Ah, I see where you're coming from.... sorry- I'm not the best with words, as you've already realised.

ummm.... I guess that's another way of putting it... :/ If you like- I'm more interested in a future citizenship than a present one...
I'm kinda busy and don't have much time for these forums, so if you respond to this post, don't expect me to reply immediately- but I will try to get back to you sometime.
