    The Trinity: Genesis of a doctrine

    A Freeman has touted the King of Kings version of the Bible as the complete and accurate translation of scripture. Putting aside for the moment that such claim is false, at least as far as Hebrew scripture is concerned, you should check out the website of the person or organization behind that...

    The Truth: The Mathematical Proof of God, The Holy Trinity.

    The OP has been posting this thread over the last little while on several other forums. Some folk have been reluctant to download the material, others have downloaded without ill effect, although the folks who have examined the material have not been impressed.

    Hope is a Happy Accident of FAITH

    @otherbrother - Could you further explain your meaning of “the dynamic thing we do to cope unbelievably well at times”? I’m trying to ascertain the extent to which we agree or disagree as to the meaning of “faith”.

    Common Figure of Speech/Colloquial Language?

    @rstrats has been seeking an answer to this here, and many other forums, for years. Sort of a modern era Diogenes. He started this thread over 11 years ago. On another forum I provided him with some information from Jewish sources, however they were not contemporaneous with to the writing of...

    Anti - Semitic

    When someone, angry about events in the Middle East, decides that the way to express that anger is to deface and destroy the mezuzas on the doorposts of a synagogue in the United States, that moves the needle off the political mark on the scale and onto the religious. When someone, angry about...

    Anti - Semitic

    That wasn't the point of my comment. At this point I think we can agree with Princess Elsa and "Let it go."

    Something I read earlier today that I don't know where to put

    1) Anything my sister cooked. 2) Anything my sister cooks... because if she were still cooking it would mean I hadn't lost her way before her time. 3) Yes, I'd have a problem. I don't eat treife... but you knew that. 4) Yes, I do. I've never seen my plate tip over. 5) I'm an omnivore, but I'd...

    Spiritual lessons for your younger self

    I have a wonderful wife, wonderful kids and three, you guessed it, wonderful grandchildren. Earlier in my life, remember I entered the rabbinate at an age when many rabbis are close to retirement, I found myself in situations where I stopped two men from taking their own lives. I would not want...

    Anti - Semitic

    I'm trying to come up with something that will be clearer to you as to my point. In the interim, if anybody believes they understand what it is I am trying to say, please feel free to jump in.

    Anti - Semitic

    This is not one of those questions that can be answered in a 25 words or less manner. I think you appreciate that.

    Anti - Semitic

    I am an American. There have been times when my country, its government and/or individuals in positions of power and responsibility have acted in ways that I have believed to be irresponsible and misuses of power. I have, at those times, spoken out and worked to correct what I have perceived as...

    Anti - Semitic

    Sunrise and sunset describe two daily events in the way that they visually appear to happen. I don't have a problem with using that terminology, but it does not accurately reflect the reality of what is actually occurring at those moments. With that in mind do you have a clearer idea of what I...

    Essay on the Eucharist

    @EricPH - As I pointed out to you last month in a different thread, the Hebrew of the verse you cited does not say what the translation you are using says.

I know it hasn't been easy for him, and I know even the best can struggle at any time running an active forum in general, let...

    A world without the abrahamic revelatio...revolution.

    @moralorel - I’m always up to learning a possibly new to me receipe for potato latkes. Over the years I’ve been put in the position of enjoying many well made latkes and enduring a fair number of others. On a more serious note, it is never my intention to talk down to anyone. If I offended I...

    A world without the abrahamic revelatio...revolution.

    @wil - There, for me, are too many variables, too many butterflies, to speculate what actually would have been, what actually would be if…. As I’m sure you know that kind of musing has fueled much speculative fiction by others. @moralorel - Just a reminder that the Hebrew Tanakh does not...
