the title of the article: Suspected Jewish terrorists set Jerusalem Church on fire

edit to Tabatha: now let me quote what you said

"Also, the majority of Jews aren't actually 'against' any religious or ethnic group, because we know how it feels to be hated for no good reason"

while after that u say u agree with EU Citizen, meaning u do hate evenagalicals? a bit contradictory dont u think?

Answer 1

Israel treats Palestinian Christians in the same way they treat Palestinian Muslims (which is why Hezbollah has so many Christian members). Of course this isn't something that many people want to be heard because then it shatters the idea that Palestinians are all rutheless terrorist Muslims who hate Jews to the death and the Israelis are the poor self-defenders who can never do wrong (both are wrong in mho). And because of this propoganda, when a little bit of the real information slips out, nobody wants to believe it because it's so different from what they usually hear. Either that or excuses are made. Human nature I suppose.

EU Citizen, absolutely agreed.

Answer 2

You have most probably read the Holy Qur'anic verse, "The Jews said there is not a grain of truth in Christianity, and the Christians said there is not a grain of truth in Judaism..."

I do not exactly remember the rest of the verse, but I know that both of those religions are respected in Islam, whereas followers of both have been keeping cursing at our Muslim brethren, or Holy Book, and Our Beloved Prophet for quite a long while.

May God forgive them, and guide us all to be true monotheists.

Answer 3

All of the current monotheistic religion are just bastardizations of early Eygptian worship of the sun god Ra.

If you look at the similarities between all the religions:

The Great Deluge (Flood): Gilgamesh, Noah, ...
The Virgin Birth: LaoTzu, Jesus, Mithras, Horus
Death & Resurrection: Osiris, Tammuz, Attis, Mithra, Jesus

The differences come when addressing those who "keep Torah" & those that believe that Jesus was God incarnate. For Jews, any human being God is Blasphemey!

Answer 4

I would like to echo the excellent response of EU CITIZEN.

Also, the majority of Jews aren't actually 'against' any religious or ethnic group, because we know how it feels to be hated for no good reason.

I'm sure you agree, though, that it is really out of order for any Christians to come to Israel and attempt to convert Jewish people. And again, EU CITIZEN is totally right in his assessment of what evangelicals ultimately want.

All that said, IF it transpires that any Jews did set fire to the church, I don't condone this. It's always wrong to do something of this nature.

SPREEZ

- rather than getting angry with me, wouldn't it make more sense for you to get angry with those Christians that DO try and convert Jews? Nobody is saying it's ALL Christians, but the fact remains that some do. How can you criticise us for stating fact???

Answer 5

I dont understand the liberal use of the word Terrorist or Terror by people in the media every time an arab does something criminal he is a terrorist and the same does not apply to a white offender.

Like the sir an sir an who assignated one of the keenedies.

He ASSASINATED one of the kennedies yet people call him a terrorist because he was ARAB.

they do not call Lee a terrorist its a double standard.

The word terror and terrorist should be droped in most cases because it is extremely ambigous a misused constantly and constantly over again.

Whoever did this that you talka bout what was not a TERRORIST he was an ARSONIST.

Like i said the word tererorist is misused to often and is usually a slanderous terms to arab people in the west.

TO DAVEY BOY. You are absoloutely right, evangilicas dont want peace between the two sides.

The evengalicals want agressive jewish settlements in all of so called greater israel so that their rapture can come and so they can convert the jews to christianity onwards.

Any jew who listened to a tent full of evangilicals would be offended about their opinions on Israel and the middle east.

They dont want peace they want some silly end of the world to come and they want the jews to become christians.

Answer 6

i was born a christian though am not really practising religion.. i live in israel and have never had anyone give me a hard time or be racist because i am christian..

my husband is jewish and and his family are all very loving and respectful towards me. we all get on just fine.

i think there will always be extreme people in all facets of life..whether its religion politics or anything... but extremism is not peaceful, its very core is the belief that their way or belief is the only way.. this is not accepting the other for their beliefs and way of living..

in order to have a peaceful life and existance we all need to see that the world is made up of lots of different people with lots of different beliefs..and thats what makes the world the amazing and interesting place that it is.. we need to embrace the differences between us all..

Answer 7

Yes , Davie Boy I read the other day how there is something like a "lobby group" which some Evangelists have. They raise money for the purpose of enticing. Although I still believe that one must be strong and sure in what they believe. If one converts do you think it is their choice , in the end I mean? Cheers!
Adam I agree, but doesn't the Israeli gov. have a form of welfare?

Answer 8

That is sad to hear, but I had already heard some tragic stories from some of my Israeli christian friends that move to the US. It is hard for me to believe this, and this is why I don't like religion. Not all Jews are against christians, just some.

Part of the article says:

Israel doesn’t allow proselytizing, but thousands of Jews have converted to evangelical Christianity, which teaches that the creation of Israel in Palestine in 1948 was a fulfillment of Biblical prophecy and a precedent to the second advent of Jesus.

Evangelicals are also against peace between Israel and the Palestinians, especially if it involves Israeli withdrawal from occupied Palestinian territories.

Answer 9

Some are, but some aren't. Christians sometimes tend to push on us their religion which gets pretty annoying.

Answer 10

Some probably are, but we get it a lot worse from muslims. This is one church (and who knows if the story is even true), how many thousand of our churches have been burned in Indonesia, Sudan, the Philippines, Pakistan and Nigeria?
