Jews As The Chosen People

[irosie91]

That is doubtful. I've been a practicing engineer for over 30 years.

Apply some of that specificity to studying Tanach.

Applying reason and experience to all things.

For instance, I can tell that you have an external locus of control and practice normalization of deviance.

And that your attempt to subordinate the faith of others makes you a dupe of the socialists.

I bet you’re a pretty nice person.
Your inappropriate use of Scripture is your major flaw.

What have I done that was inappropriate and how was it inappropriate?

Stop the nonsense...
If you apply the same methodology to engineering as you do to Scripture you’re probably unemployed.

Ding is an engineer? that explains why he never read the bible-----engineers like
to read things like BLUE PRINTS and-----electrical circuits ----and stuff like that.
One of my brothers is an engineer. When forced to do a "BOOK REPORT" in school-----on a novel of his choice------he would ask my mother to get him a library
book "VERY SHORT". Another brother------not so adverse to literature----but lazy-------INVENTED NOVELS----he wrote book reports on NON EXISTING BOOKS-------handed the same paper in three years running------and managed to get an "A" the last year he did it. He LATER ON did work on the senior high school newspaper------and won a state award for journalism

Same company for 33 years.

I’m very happy they never replaced you with a Business Visa.

Me too. I can only assume it is because I add value.

Or you’re not in NY, NJ, VA or FL.
Most companies are concerned with Stock Value and cutting costs to draw investors.

 

[irosie91]

Man does not always know right from wrong; that’s why we have older, wiser leaders.

That sounds like something the devil would say.

the "DEVIL" ?? that Christian GOD OF THE UNDERWORLD -----with horns and
a red pitchfork? He talks to you? For how long has this phenomenon been going on?

Some Jews also believe in the devil, my dear.

only ignorant ones

How do you know they are ignorant?

"the devil" as a personality PRESIDING over some place underground
is NOT a jewish concept. A jew who is into the devil with a red-pitchfork---
does not know anything about jewish teachings.

The universe offers constant feedback. We are all being pruned. Some take to it and new growth occurs. Some don’t and have to repeat the lesson. The law of compensation never sleeps.

I understand the Jewish concept of Satan. I also understand it is not universal. Underestimate me at your own peril.

I doubt very seriously if you understand the concept of entropy and what it tells us.

Everyone is being pruned. There are no exceptions.

"UNIVERSAL" ?? is there some "belief" in the world which is "universal" ?
It is just as silly to say "some jews believe in the devil" as it is to insist that
some Christians believe in the Easter Bunny

No. There isn't a belief that is 100% universal. Diversity is good. God created it.

My point is that your Jewish beliefs are not universal even within your own community. It seems this was your way of agreeing with me. Although it was unnecessarily long and had the look and feel like you were trying to disagree with me.

Which is why it seems odd to me that you would take offense at the beliefs of any other religion. There is only one God. He doesn't care what name you call him. He only cares that you call him.

Someone needs to explain to him that the idea of the devil in a fiery furnace and surrounded by the tortured dead is derived largely from the imagery created by Dante Alighieri in the Inferno.

Why are you swinging your sword at a straw man? I'm over here.

I couldn't really care less whether there is a devil of not. Have it your way. We'll all find out soon enough.

Do you think it is funny that there is only one God?

Or do you think it is funny that only non-Jewish people can know God?

Or do you think it is funny that anyone can know God?

I was under the impression that DANTE was describing ROME's IMPRESSION OF HELL-----and purgatory and paradise------with a bit of cynical comment THROWN in

I'm pretty sure their views on the subject run a little deeper than that.

Who is "they" ? Did you ever read THE DIVINE COMEDY? -----I am not
referring to the classic comic version. Jillian is right-----Lots of it comes DIRECTLY from the imagination of Dante-----but it does reflect the church's
vision of "DA AFTALIFE" at that time. Still -----it got Dante into a bit of trouble
with DA HOLEY OFFICE. GEOGRAPHICALLY------hell is in da ground-----and
Paradise is in da sky ~~~~~~~ "limbo" is off to the side somewhere----vaguely

 

[zaangalewa]

Jews chose themselves as the chosen people. Hitler chose the Jews for his ovens. Right zaan?

Why for heavens sake do you still try to speak with me, Nazi? Stop it to use alcohol and drugs. If it is to late to do so then ask a doctor for a brain transplantation and hope that this wonder will help you.

Could you smell the burning bodies from where you were hiding?

Okay. You are right. Even a brain transplantation helps nothing in case of the living dead. You will not stop to be without insight until you will see a jail from inside, Nazi.

Go ahead, call interpol, tell them you're butt hurt and won't stop calling people "Nazi". Report back on how hard they laugh before they arrest YOU.

Shut up, Nazi.
