Eaters of the Dead: The Manuscript of Ibn Fadlan Relating His Experiences with the Northmen in A.D. 922 contains many dates and names and authentic historical details. However, it is totally fiction. actually, the whole first part of the book is true... right up to where he meets the norsemen. the rest is beowulf.

why don't you reply to the person who is talking to you?
also, i'm unconvinced by your purported proof.

no, i wasn't talking to you. i was replying to a comment someone else made about eaters of the dead.
and all parts. i refuse to believe mythical tales which defend the right of a nation based solely on religion which undermines democratic laws by importing more members of that religion to dillute the vote of minorities to exist.

Democracy was introduced in the OT where exactly in between a theocratic oligarchy and a theocratic absolute monarchy did you read democracy?
Here, democrasy must bow to the right of a nation to have a homeland. a nation of people with different nationalities and skin tones and languages and cultures and traditions? i appreciate the desire for continued auto-religious isolationism, but i'm really unimpressed with their claim to a land that they claim to have stolen through hundreds of years of wars of attrition and genocide. if we were really interested in nationhood, we'd give up american lands to return it to the natives who owned it first and to the american blacks who seem to want to isolate themselves, too, if atlanta is any demonstration. not to mention the greater germanic nation, the scottish nation, the tibetan nation, should i go on?
The minority is best protected by the law you mean like having to have special papers to work and live in the nation of your birth and where you own property, because you were born in the wrong church? or having your food, water, and electricity rationed because you've been pushed out of your home to areas that are little more than bombed-out refugee camps, again because while you were born in this land as a citizen, you were born to the wrong faith? or having less of a vote in the government or having no vote over your capital city or not being able to go to certain places in your homeland because you don't have that fancy little mitochondrion? or being beaten up on the public buses because you don't follow religious dress codes. if you knew anything about israel, you wouldn't even begin to suggest that minorities there are protected by the laws.
By itself, democracy negates the rights of a minority. bullshit. the rights of all are protected providing a proper vote to all. nothing about being a minority ensures a given vote nor the exclusion from the system, unless your percentage is continually diluted and your rights are continually restricted by a government that wants nothing more than to remove you from the land where you were born. at any rate. according to their own history, the people who became the jews migrated from iraq; sought shelter from a famine in a foreign land; left that land ransacking its treasure and causing a massacre of its troops by getting them lost and drowned through impressive millitary strategy; took over a huge area through attrition, pillaging, and genocide; and once they had built a nation, turned on their own people declaring that they worshiped wrongly, weren't jewish enough and then perpetrated further acts of horror and genocide on their own people. i'm unimpressed with their claims to the land. i've no issue with the country as it exists now, but i do hold great contempt for their government policies and the way they treat people, especially considering that they, of all peoples, should know better than to mistreat people based on the circumstances of their birth.

Jews did not come from Iraq. Judaism was born and incepted in canaan. your beloved old testament says that abraham came from ur. ur is in iraq.
The egyptians were not ransacked - they used slaves without pay and without any rights. the old testament says that when the jews left, they took treasure from the egyptians. there's no evidence in egypt that they utilized slave labor. the buildings in egypt in particular from that time period are clearly built by skilled labor, not unskilled slaves.
Egypt instigated the canaanites wrongly, and genocide was declared against the Israelites when they fleed Egypt. what's this about egypt instigating cannan? that's not even a proper sentence. and just because the egyptians killed israelite babies doesn't excuse the israelites from their genocides against the hittites, the amorites, the cannanites, the perizzites, the hivites, the jebusites and then their own tribe of benjamin before turning on the northern kingdom.
Your appraisal is not just wrong, but the reverse of the facts, thus you bypassed all the wrongs comitted by Egypt and Canaan. what are these wrongs of cannan? the bible doesn't even mention any other than being in the way or "pagans".
Jews have never stolen anyone's lands in all their 4000 year history, despite being the world's most dispersed: have you read the bible? hell, it's not even that many books of it. just exodus and joshua would do.
did Jews rob Tasmania, Pakistan or Poland? what does tasmania have to do with anything? there were jews in tasmania? all i know about tasmania is that the native population was completely annihilated by the brits (or post-brits). i think pakistan is an equally unfounded point in this discussion. and poland. well, in 1335 king kazimierz wielki opened poland to the jews which were being expelled from the rest of europe and guaranteed their freedoms. shortly into the 1400s, the austrians were responsible for pograms against the jews and there were some issues post-wwi, but they were limited in scope. the real oppression of jews came with the german invasion in 1939. btw, the ghettos were built by the jews by choice because they wanted to live in separate religious communities. the germans forced more people into the ghettos and made them the center of great oppression, but did not build them or initiate jewish indwelling. they have as much of a right to exist and pursue their own goals as anyone else as long as their pleasure does not infringe on others. but to deny that they are just as flawed as the rest of humanity is beyond foolish, into the territory of dangerous. because to deny that they have the same penchant for nationalism and racism as the rest of us is to further endanger a huge population of second-class citizens which is frankly past the edge of suffering very serious human rights violations and is in danger of much worse if nothing is done.

How else would you know where Abraham came from - it is the first recording of the city of Ur. What you disregard is, Judaism and Israel did not come from Ur, but was established in Canaan, by Israelite canaanites, two generations later, via Jacob oh wow, two generations. that's like 40 years. i'm so impressed with the vast difference in people there. oh right people lived 800 million years back then and it's all crap. i never said that judaism came from iraq; i said the people who became the jews came from iraq. and if i recall correctly, issac married a relative and jacob married a relative, purposely. so whatever cannanite link is by location only.
The egyptian's main claim to fame was their slave asset; this is not in dispute. no, their main claim to fame is their fancy buldings and god kings. every documentary i've seen on egypt since i was 2 has said that those buildings could not have been built by unskilled slave labor. and it took the israelites how long to build a great big building? if they could have done it before, don't you think they would have?
The Israelites built two cities there: you are quoting the texts selectively, choosing what suits. no, i'm not quoting anything. i'm referencing common knowledge from the real world, you know, outside your dusty old book where people tell the truth.
It is ubsurdity to claim the israelites just walked out with a superpower's treasures and yet it's in your dusty old book.
I like the use of 'just' when describing the first recording of genocide. i wasn't describing it, asshole. don't talk to me about recognizing the justice or injustice of genocide. also, try reading. it's amazing what people are actually saying when you get your head out of itself. what i was suggesting is that the murder of jewish babies does not justify the murder or entire peoples by the jews.
This occured when the canaanites barred entry to Israel, and proclaimed genocide too: this is missing from your accusation. cite it.
'ALL THAT WAS EVIL IN THE SIGHT OF THE LRD DID THEY (THE CANAANITES) DO' like buttseks and eating lobster and cutting their hair?
Why did two of the eight canaanite kingdoms side with the Joshua and battle the other six? real politik.next? The OT is an exacting, intergrated document - and requires correct comprehension.
maybe it requires correct comprehension to be described as integrated or exacting. i want what you're smoking. it would make life easier.
Its the world's most honest document hahahahhahahahahhaahahaha
Further, in that time, wars for land dominance were always faught with the anihilation of the other side, because of a superstition premise; this was normal fare, and not to be confused with conquering another nation for slaves.
so because everyone else was doing it it was ok for the people of god to do it? wtf? regardless of 'common practice' bullshit, genocide is never ok. you make me sick.
Yes, jews were in all these places, but did not steal anyone's lands: that's the point. there were jews in tasmania? when? is it cause the tasmanians were killed? are all victims of genocide jews now?
Not true. This refuge was saught when medevial christianity... the ghettos in poland were built and inhabitted by the jews by choice.
???
open your newspaper lately?

You have this confused. Moses only wrote the five books; the rest is post-Torah (Pentatuch) writings. The book of Kings was writen much later, after the Judges period. um. he was referring to genesis 36:31 which is in the torah and is allegedly written by moses.
Gen 36:31 And these [are] the kings that reigned in the land of Edom, before there reigned any king over the children of Israel.
explain how moses knew that 400 years later there would be kings in israel. i don't recall there being discussion in genesis or exodus about god revealing the future to moses past his time in the desert.

You'd need a compass and much more to travel from Egypt to Canaan today - via a path other than the coastal one. i'm sure there's a highway with signs and no need for a compass. Edited by brennakimi, : No reason given.

Moses is here referring to Israel having no kings - when all other nations did. if this is what it meant, it would say "unlike other nations, there was no king in israel." but it doesn't. it says "before there were kings in israel," which suggests the foreknowledge that some day there would be kings in israel.
I've no idea why anyone needs to be responded to when they have a comprhension problem with the simplest example of a texts. it seems like you have the comprehension problem. do you think moses just threw around 'before's?
These are an exacting, intergrated, mathematical texts of an ancient period - and should be examined respectfully, as one would a hedy, physics equation. do you do standup? really. mathematical texts?
Esau was not 400 years after Moses, but 400 years before. yes, and i wasn't discussing esau, but rather kings in israel.

The bus leaves Goshen every hour for Canaan, which is a 40 year journey, or one can board the express train via Mount Sinai for a 100 extra shekels - just follow the signs. Carry bottled water - in case the wells are dry. it might be a day's journey...

No, it does not say that! Gen 36:31 And these [are] the kings that reigned in the land of Edom, before there reigned any king over the children of Israel. It is precisely qualified by the opening clause in the verse, 'And these [are] the kings that reigned in the land of Edom', posited in the contemporanous tense of 'these are' (at the time); there is no indication here of a future. And there is no other reading than the verse is speaking of the kings in Edom, and at that time there were no kings in Israel. Grammar was introduced in the OT - one is dumb dead without proper textual comprehention - in any field. Gen 36:31 And these [are] the kings that reigned in the land of Edom, before there reigned any king over the children of Israel. i beg your pardon, yes it does say BEFORE THERE WERE KINGS IN ISRAEL. before is an indication of time. grammar being invented in the OT is a cute joke, but regardless, you still seem unable to read.
And there is no other reading than the verse is speaking of the kings in Edom, and at that time there were no kings in Israel. precisely. at that time there were no kings in israel suggests that there is another time in which there ARE kings in israel. if such a time is to follow, how did moses know?
The 'before' refers to the time factor, namely 'before there reigned any king over the children of Israel'. Like so: 'before there reigned any king over the children of Israel...there were [these are] the kings that reigned in the land of Edom'. that's exactly what i've been saying for three posts. but again, BEFORE THERE WERE KINGS IN ISRAEL suggests that the writer had knowledge of a future time when there would be kings, otherwise he wouldn't have said BEFORE THERE WERE KINGS IN ISRAEL and instead would have said THERE WERE NO KINGS IN ISRAEL. jeeze.
The hebrew alphabets are also numerals - change a single one and you derive a different sum quotient of a verse, chapter or the entire books. clearly, not only can you not read, but you don't know anything about math. what the fuck do you propose is a "sum quotient"?
There is also a mandated law in the OT which says, YOU SHALL NOT ADD OR SUBTRACT ANYTHING FROM THIS BOOK': the numerals are thus accounted here, and a scribe's work can be easily checked for errors. hehe. so cute.
Numerology comes from here too. i may be mistaken, but isn't numerology sorcery? also, the bible codes are BULLSHIT. see ages of discussion on this board.

Not with the inclusion of 'these are': what does "these are" have to do with "before"? nothing. dick fucking all. whatever. you're crazy. i'm out.
