    Moses did not write the Torah: The Ultimate Evidence

    And what are you basing this "God never penned a word" claim, huh? You're making an absolute statement without any backup.

    Did Jesus say he was God???

    I respect your personal view; however, it is flawed for a number of reasons. First of all, Jewish doctrine states that God punished righteous people in this world so as to have them bypass the temporary pains of "hell" in the Afterlife. When evil seems to flourish in this world, they flourish...

    Why science is better than religion...

    The Jews didn't have a military throughout the past 2,000 years that they could defend themselves against armies. We have been dispersed throughout the world; we didn't have a single unified nation living in their own land that we could defend ourselves militarily. God has always been our...

    Why science is better than religion...

    Like the strong is supposed to defeat the weak, especially when the weak are further weakened by fighting with their hands tied behind their backs, and survival of the fittest.

    Refuting the Trinity Doctrine!

    GOD AS THREE? The Catholic idea of Trinity breaks God into three separate beings: The Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost (Matthew 28:19). Contrast this to the Shema, the basis of Jewish belief: "Hear O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is ONE" (Deut. 6:4). Jews declare the Shema every day...

    How do you go to Synagogue on Shabbat?

    Orthodox Jews who scrupulously follow the Torah and its commandments do not drive to synagogue on Shabbos. There is no halachic exemption for using a car on Shabbos unless one is in a state of Pikuach Nefesh (life-threatening situation) such as childbirth, or if Hatzalah (a Jewish volunteer...

    Happy (or Sad) Tisha B'av!

    Anyone interested in Project Inspire's video for this Tish'ah B'Av, just go to Kiruv.com and click on the top (The Road Home). I saw it a few hours ago; it's very meaningful. Have an easy fast.

    Moses did not write the Torah: The Ultimate Evidence

    Because Jewish tradition teaches that Moses only wrote down the Torah, which was dictated to him by God, word for word. Moses was not the author of the Torah, God was.

    Are you exempt?

    This is the Orthodox Jewish view: "Interfaith groups notwithstanding, major religions of the world have a big problem with each other; it's called Hell. They don't bring it up at the meetings on religious tolerance, but the official Catholic policy is that Protestants, Muslims, and Jews go...

    Why isn't evolution in the Bible?

    Whether or not evolution was part of the process in Creation, the Bible (Torah) makes one thing absolutely clear: man did not evolve. Perhaps evolution played a role with other organisms. But the Torah explicitly states that God created man from the dust of the earth, and not from a...

    Why science is better than religion...

    We're talking about humans over here, not animals or other species. This is what a few great minds said on the subject: “If the statistics are right, the Jews constitute but one per cent. of the human race. It suggests a nebulous dim puff of star-dust lost in the blaze of the Milky Way...

    Why science is better than religion...

    Then can science explain, by natural means, why the Jewish people are still in existence despite 2,000 + years of dispersion, persecution, attempted annihilation, pillage, rape, torture, ridicule, etc? Can science explain how the Land of Israel somehow only produced vegetation able to support a...

    who created SATAN?

    That's unfortunately how many religions began: the founder or founders developed doctrine that was convenient for them at the time. The Torah was not, nor ever was (or is) convenient for the Jews. We have 613 commandments to keep. We cannot drive on the Sabbath. We can't eat a whole lot of...

    who created SATAN?

    Yes, it is a closed cannon, but for a very good reason. Let me quote a verse for you from Psalm 19:8-10: "The Torah of HaShem is perfect, restoring the soul; the testimony of HaShem is trustworthy, making the simple one wise; the orders of HaShem are upright, gladenning the heart; the command...

    who created SATAN?

    Of course you believe that. But what do you mean by not believeing in the Torah? You don't believe it exists, you don't believe in its Divine authorship, you don't believe in its teachings? Which one is it?

    How does the bible make sense?

    I know you wanted a Christians only discussion, but let me explain why no Christian will be able to truly prove that the Bible is truly trustworthy. Let me quote you something from an article about the foundation of Judaism as a religion: 4) JEWISH BELIEF IS BASED SOLELY ON NATIONAL REVELATION...
