[natstew]

The whole series is on all day today on PBS. I recommend everyone watch it.
If you choose not to, don't act as any kind of authority on them, for or against!!

In other words, you pro-palestinian anti Israelis watch it or shut your mouths!!

“Certainly, the world without the Jews would have been a radically different place. Humanity might have eventually stumbled upon all the Jewish insights. But we cannot be sure. All the great conceptual discoveries of the human intellect seem obvious and inescapable once they had been revealed, but it requires a special genius to formulate them for the first time. The Jews had this gift. To them we owe the idea of equality before the law, both divine and human; of the sanctity of life and the dignity of human person; of the individual conscience and so a personal redemption; of collective conscience and so of social responsibility; of peace as an abstract ideal and love as the foundation of justice, and many other items which constitute the basic moral furniture of the human mind. Without Jews it might have been a much emptier place.”

- Paul Johnson, gentile, British historian, author of A History of the Jews

This gentile reader is in full agreement. Without Jews it would have been a much emptier place

I'll have to wait until it's on the Roku PBS channel.

Thanks. Episode 1 is available at pbs.org. Haven't checked on my Roku yet. I don't have the paid service so assume there will be some wait for it to show up via my device.

 

[Mr. H.]

Whattya know there's 5 episodes on my Roku. Is that all of them?

This is a great piece I always use on Anti Semites

Written by the late Sam Levenson. He called it "An Answer to an Anti-Semite."

"It's a free world. You don’t have to like Jews, but if you don’t, I suggest that you boycott certain Jewish products like insulin, discovered by Dr. Minkoski; the vaccine for hepatitis, discovered by Baruch Blumberg; chlorhydrate for convulsions, discovered by Dr. J. Von Liebig; the Wassermann test for syphilis; streptomycin, discovered by Dr. Selman Abraham Waxman; the polio pill by Dr. Albert Sabin; and the polio vaccine by Dr. Jonas Salk."

"Good! Boycott! But humanitarianism requires that my people offer all these gifts to all the people of the world. Fanaticism requires that all bigots accept diabetes, hepatitis, convulsions, syphilis, infectious diseases and infantile paralysis."

"You want to be mad? Be mad! But I’m telling you, you ain’t going to feel so good

General Washington's financial advisor and assistant was a Jewish man by the name of Hyam Salomon. During the cold winter months at Valley Forge when American soldiers were freezing and running out of food, it was Hyam who marshaled all the Jews in America and Europe to provide money in relief aid to these stranded American troops and turned the course of history. Without this help, Washington's Continental Army, and the fate of the American Colonies would have perished before they could have defeated the British.

If you take a one dollar bill out of your pocket and look at the back at the Eagle, the stars above the Eagle's head are in the six point Star of David to honor Jews. If you turn the Eagle upside down you will see a configuration in the likeness of a Menorah....both at the insistence of George Washington who said we should never forget the Jewish people and what they have done in the interest of America. This is the seal of the United States of America.

yes 5

 

[Mr. H.]

I quite enjoyed the first episode. I'm not necessarily interested in the Jewish faith, but the history and culture of the story fascinates me.

It is sad that modern day people look to the error-filled and plagiarized mythology like the old testament and even worse the bizarre response to the likewise error-filled new testament, the talmud to rationalize their pro-zionist racism. Yahweh never existed and if he did, he still hates you. Get over it.

I wouldn't talk about hate, Nazi Troll .

Of course, you won't respond to this post because whenever you post your hateful jibberish, you run away like the coward you are

The Nose is certainly a funny fellow. It's a shame that he has a problem with people believing as they d9. Why should he care what people believe in as long as they are not out to kill him for not believing as they do? Nose, can believe that the moon is made of Swiss cheese. Would anyone care that he believes that, as long as he believe that in a peaceful way.

The majority of jews have not studied the talmud. Most of the time the talmud is used by non-jews that cut and paste from erroneous sites. It is not a simple, this is the laws. It is a discourse analyzing all aspect and possibilities. It also compiles oral tradition explaining aspect of the bible. It is opinions from many Rabbis. It is specific legal cases and hypothetical ones. It is not part of the Tanakh or hebrew bible. It is more like having an annotated book to accompany the works of Socrates or Pythagoras.

I don't know what the American equivalent is but the British one is call Hansard

Hansard (the Official Report) is the edited verbatim report of proceedings of both the House of Commons and the House of Lords. Daily Debates from Hansard are published on this website the next working day by 6am.

Very similar to the Talmud
