Roudy,
I do not need your judgment about where I stand with respect to God.
Jesus did not even come to judge, the woman caught in the act of adultery, she stood there, caught in an act that called for stoning, and He said to her, go and sin no more.
Hossfly,
You ask for my condemnation. Who am I to condemn any man? That woman caught in the act of adultery and standing there in front of Jesus, brought there in front of Jesus by the Pharisees and religious Jewish leaders, Jesus did not condemn her, so what business have I to condemn?
And one more thing, before you accuse me of condemning the Americans who caused 1 million to die in Iraq, that criticism of our own bad acts is no condemnation of any person, that criticism is getting the speck out of my own eye or trying to, anyway. Americans live in a democracy, we elect leaders, we have responsibility for the acts of our leaders and government and armies and those we provide weapons to kill others with, too, our allies like Israel. When I criticize our own killing, our own atrocities, the atrocities of our allies who we give money and arms to terrorize and kill innocent civilains with, I am trying to get that speck out of my own eye, there is no condemnation in that, in these acts which are confronting injustice with truth.

You seem incapable of condemning Muslims for crimes against humanity, terrorism, genocide, and oppression persecution of minorities and women. I think you have Islamist associations that have fed you this ignorant garbage you spew on this board. Of course in cases like yours, it's not one thing that leads to your anti semetism. It could be multiple reasons. And, like all Jew haters, you can't even admit that Jesus was a Jew that preached Judaism. If he stopped people from stoning a woman, in his mind that is what he thought a good Jew should do.
You anti Semites cannot face the fact that Jews have been one of the most peaceful non violent people in history, which is why they kept getting persecuted. You cannot show me one instance in history where Jews invaded lands, killed their people, looted, raped their women, and forcibly converted the inhabitants into Judaism, as other faiths have done over and over again. It was only after the Holocaust that they decided to defend themselves and their homeland.
Roudy,
My model is Jesus Christ, we see in Matthew 23 who He spoke His harshes words to, His very own people, the Jews, it was not the ones His people saw as the enemy, the Romans or Samaritans or other Gentiles that He had His harshes words for.
Do you see Jesus as Anti Semitic, for those words He spoke in Matthew 23?
Your buying into all that BS you are spouting about peacefulness of Jews is a complete denial of the reality of the Occupation and its daily human rights abuses, that have been going on day in and day out for over 45 years now that are reported on daily in websites like Reliefweb. Open your eyes, we choose whether we face the truth or deny it, and we face consequences for our choices, too.
I think it might be helpful to see right now what is being reported today, that is happening in Palestine, the present day war crimes Israel is carrying out in Occupied Palestine. Any day, anytime, every day, for the past 45+ years, new human rights abuses and war crimes are being carried out, and they are regularly reported on Reliefweb.
Here we have a report date June 29, 2012, about Israel's ethnic cleansing of another village in the Occupied West Bank, a demolition that will also destroy a health clinic.
CARE International condemns the demolition orders that will destroy most of the Palestinian community of Susiya, including an ECHO-funded health clinic run by CARE International in partnership with the Palestinian Medical Relief Society. CARE calls on Israel's Civil Administration to immediately halt the demolition orders in Susiya and on all humanitarian aid projects in the occupied Palestinian territory, and advocates for the development of a sustainable building plan in collaboration with Susiya residents that upholds their rights to shelter, basic services and access to their agricultural lands.
CARE, in partnership with PMRS and funded by ECHO, established a health clinic in Susiya and 46 other vulnerable and isolated communities under the “Emergency Health Assistance to People Living in Communities Whose Rights are Inadequately Protected in the West Bank” project , currently in its fourth year and operating on an annual budget of 1 million Euros. The clinic provides the community with access to quality primary health care services, previously unavailable due to the restrictions imposed by Israel on their movement, whereas even ambulances are prohibited from entering. The health clinic provides general practitioner services, women’s health services, lab services and health education. It receives 76 visits per month, 60% from women and 37% from children under 18. CARE also trained community health workers to provide care in times of emergency response. Last week, the community health workers provided medical attention during protests against the demolition attended by hundreds of Palestinians, Israelis, and internationals
