Not so fast, RR
Ok, then why are many Jews converting to Christ? Jews for Jesus?
​
It has been pointed out to you that the "Jews for Jesus" may not be actual Jews. I don't think anyone has proven that. But you brushed off the suggestion with neither a request for back up or any support that they are converted Jews.
​
You don't get to use as fact something which is not as yet determined.

Back up
Doesn't have any Jews in it. They're Baptists. They claim to be Jewish, but they lie.
​
To put this one to bed it would be a good time for you to back this assertion up.

Re: Swords into Plowshares, Folks
Let me pile on a bit too.
​
RR I have to agree that there can be some arrogant sounding tone in Rrhain's posts. He can seem patronizing rather frequently. I find it possible to be a bit annoyed even when I agree with his view.
​
But that has nothing to do with the arguments being presented. Ranting about your reaction to what he has said accomplishs nothing.
​
You simple have to, patiently as possible, point out where he is wrong and show why you reached that conclusion. If he avoids your rebuttals, lies about anything or isn't overtly polite he will be brought to task by admins.

Useless post
Since your post contributes nothing to the discussion and doesn't exactly make you look any smarter; why bother posting it?

Re: Useless post
Now I understand where that comes from.
​
Rrhain does have an annoying habit of pasting in that little bit. However, he does it if you bring up Pascal's wager which you continue to do. If you understand what it is saying you would either show what you think is wrong with it or stop voiceing a form of Pascal's wager.
​
If you think he's doing that "every other post" then you are probably voicing the wager pretty often. He does have another annoying habit of repeating himself if someone ignores what they have been told before.
​
Perhaps you'd like to propose a topic on Pascal's wager and see if you can put a stop to it once and for all.

Back off on that Rrhain
No, you don't. You are lying.
​
This should only be charged if you have real evidence. The fact that RiverRat is confused isn't enough to charge this.
