    WWJD: could society function?

    If everyone lived their lives according to "what would Jesus do" could society function, or would it collapse? Personally, I think it would improve but perhaps I'm being naive?

    Was Jesus really a Jewish rabbi?

    In more recent times, I see more and more Christians claiming that not only was Jesus a learned scholar, but he was actually a rabbi. This is evidenced, in their view, from the fact that he's called "rabbi" by some in the NT. In Judaism, though, this is not a feasible view. Not because there's...

    Jesus's Death. Was That Unnecessary?

    In this recent thread, people discussed why we need Jesus as savior. This thread is about how his death was necessary according to the Bible. According to Jewish tradition, there needs to be a sacrifice in order that the sins of mankind should be absolved. Nevertheless, Richard Dawkins calls...

    Why Didn't God Leave Huge Quantities of Secular Evidence For Jesus?

    Why didn't God leave behind a huge trove of secular evidence for Jesus having lived on earth, dying on the cross and all the supernatural events accompanying the crucifixion like dead bodies rising from the grave and walking around Jerusalem? If God really wanted us all to believe Jesus is His...

    Question to Christians about Jesus' "Sinlessness"

    Questions to Christians. I have seen a claim that Jesus was sinless or that he fulfilled the Torah. My questions are as follows. Are you saying that Jesus actually did the entire 613 mitzvoth of the Torah himself? If not, are you saying that while he was living, he did all the ~20 mitzvoth...

    What is Christianity like in India ?

    If Christians make up 1% of India's population that means there is 13 million Christians in India which is a pretty sizeable amount. Are these practising Christians? If they are then do you think there are more practising Christians than UK, France or Germany? Are there any famous Indian...

    Did Jesus commit suicide?

    Legitimate question here, and an interesting one for Catholics in particular to address (since they deem it an unforgivable sin). First I'll post a common definition of suicide for arguments sake: noun 1 the intentional taking of one's own life. 2 destruction of one's own interests or...

    Jews (and Noahides): Would Jesus be "sitting in the mizrach"?

    Edit: The following thread was created for discussion/debate by Jews and Noahides. Last shabbat, one of the rabbis at my yeshiva gave us a talk about the almost-forgotten Fast of the 9th of Tevet, probably created in the memory of Simon Kipa, which led to talking about some of the history of...

    Is Jesus literally the Son of God for you?

    Many Christians agree that Jesus is the Son of God, but what exactly do they understand by it, because the term "Son of God" has two meanings, one can understand it literally or one can understand it only as a title. Now if someone interprets this term literally, then he would have to believe...

    The demons are NOT angels.

    Many think that the demons are former fallen angels, this widespread teaching is wrong. The demons are the children of human women who had sexual intercourse with some angels. (Genesis 6:1-4) Before the demons were called "demons", they were called "Nephilim" (giants) on earth. These Nephilim...
