Religion or Science - How do they compare?

You don't know because you are not even trying. Why did the Baptist Church splinter in 1845? Why did the Methodist Church have a similar split?Sometimes it is best just to keep silent. As if Luther's anti-Semitism was a one-time thing. You are aware that we only know about his beliefs because he wrote about them, right?Edited by NoNukes, : No reason given.

Perhaps you should take it upon yourself to explain what you mean. And how on earth does a split in a denomination in any way support the idea of general Protestant "wickedness?"

The Roman church had incited Anti-Semitism for centuries, notably in Spain, and went on promoting pogroms and the like. Hitler's Catholicism played no small part in the Holocaust, he even said he modeled it on the Inquisition, not to mention the actual influence of the Pope in his day. However, as I understand it Luther had broken free of that influence to the extent of reaching out to the Jews. Of course he preached the gospel to them which didn't sit well. But it was the curses against Christ that he found in their Talmud that pushed him over the edge. That's what I've read. In any case there is no BIBLICAL justification for anti-Semitism.Edited by Faith, : No reason given.Edited by Faith, : No reason given.Edited by Faith, : No reason given.

You really need to stop reading lying sources. There are no curses against Christ in the Talmud or the Tanakh.

There are certainly no curses against Christ in the Tanakh because the Tanakh is the Bible. But there are blasphemies against Christ in the Babylonian Talmud, that perpetuate the story that he was a bastard born of the marital infidelity of Mary. She had to suffer that accusation by the Jews at the time.

That's just Ockham's razor in action.It only hurts if you're a whisker.

Yes of course. At EvC no Christian truth goes unpunished.Edited by Faith, : No reason given.

Fixed it for you. The shaving cream probably got in your mind's eye.

Falsely quoting someone is a serious offense.

Wikipedia on JESUS IN THE TALMUDYou may of course prefer to believe the denials in the same article, since as I said No Christian truth goes unpunished at EvC.Edited by Faith, : No reason given.Edited by Faith, : No reason given.

Sorry faith that is only two falsehoods from you in one post; you must be off your feed.The Tanakh is NOT the Bible.And the Babylonian Talmud is hardly concerned with the fledgling Christianity.

Oh dear, you're not taking yourself seriously again are you?
Be assured, no one else does.Well, except for the generic caution about the danger of ignorant, ideologically blinded people in large numbers.

The fact that you see doubting questionable claims as a punishment - rather than simple honesty - speaks volumes.

It only speaks volumes to those with a an ingrained prejudice against everything I say.

You're projecting again.
My contempt for your claims comes from being raised a creationist and understanding first-hand the lack of honesty evinced by believers when they are asked to confront evidence. I hope you don't imagine there is even a shred of originality in your dissembling.
