Like I said, just ask her.

That's what he was doing before you jumped in like a retarded orangutan on crack.

You're right, you did. My error.



Yeah...much better. Far less offensive. :duh3:

More along these lines.

Still don't understand how my pointing out a logical flaw (trying to stop the defacement of God's name by defacing it one's self ) is insulting or degrading to all Jewish people and their beliefs. Or how expressing my wish that we could still know the name of our common God is belittling Jews and/or victimizing Christians.

 

[Nienna]

Well you sure didn't learn about it from Jews, did ya?

Actually, I have learned a few things from Jews, one woman in particular, both about the Jewish religion, and about other things in life. She was a very nice lady.

It's so funny she felt free to just use a totally different word.:rotflmao:

The truth is of no consequence when the "greater good" is at stake.

You can't understand it because it's a "Jillian" thing that she can't explain without "exposing" her next card.

 

[Nienna]

My *context* is that no religion should be disparaged. Saying a 5,000 year old religion somehow defaced something *belonging* to a later-created religion is disparaging, notwithstanding the cheerleaders who seem to think otherwise.

They defaced something belonging (truly to all mankind, but for the sake of argument...) to their own religion. That was a logical flaw which deprived their own people as well as those whom inherited the faith in God. However, stating that is not a slight on all Jews, everywhere.

She's been asked a lot---no answers--I thought I would try a different tack.
Go figure.

I went back and re-read this thread and she's been asked several times if she is Jewish, and on what basis she is claiming superior knowledge of early Judaeism. Since asking a straightforward question appears to be something some of the folks here are afraid to do, let me help you out.

Jillian. Do you think that using G_d to "drive the whackjobs nuts" is disparaging to someone's religion?

I believe it was me, not Jillian that said that. No, I don't think I'm disparaging them at all. If they wish to take offense and start really long threads, their choice I guess. By the way, I do not believe writing G_d is defacing or disparaging or defiling His name either.

It isn't disparaging to Judaism. And I do believe she was referring to RWA when using the term "wackjob", something that is borne out by his posts on Jews and his bizarre conspiracy theories.

Also, I believe Kathianne is Christian but she's never been anything but respectful of other beliefs near as I can tell.

Hope I answered your question.

 

[Annie]

How about this?

Isn't the use of the G-d for this purpose a bit irreverant ?

Actually, I didn't consider it irreverent in the least. Quite the contrary. RWA starting a thread on such a topic, just to turn into Jew bashing, well that doesn't fall within my definition of Christian or reverent.

Conspiracy Boy and his sidekick, Tan Gent are calling Jillian a hypocrit for not calling you out for your remarks.

I know. I wrote the 'whack job' remark with a certain type of person in mind, I'm sorry Niena got caught up in the discussion, I have no doubt that she meant anything mean. She believes what she wrote, I have no doubt either. I just disagree with her.

Wrong--I was trying to find out what Jillian thought about the G_d ploy used by Kat. She finally answered. I called Jillian a hypocrite because while she feels that do religion should be disparaged, she will accuse Christians of cramming religion down peoples throats.

But still, we can't allow politics and religion to invade the general chat forum. That's just sick.
