absolutely necessary bump
Somebody’s got to push the envelope on free speech. Otherwise, the left will continue to take it away.
It's OK to want something and not threaten alternative consequences.

Once again Prager hits the nail on the head.
“Judaism is concerned with people’s behavior, not their beliefs. That is why religious Jews are not offended by Ann Coulter’s religious beliefs. Every ideology believes in the goal of perfecting human nature - even liberalism. But as Dennis Prager points out, liberals are hypocrites in singling out Christianity for special censure. Who imposes their beliefs more upon American society? Liberals or Christians? Ann Coulter simply stated her belief about Christians going to heaven. That’s hardly anti-semitism. We would all hope atheists and secularists adopted a belief in God. Which was after all Ann Coulter’s real point - and one worth making. “
You are one smart guy. I am a Christian, and have many Jewish FRiends.........Jackie Mason is my favorite comedian!
I do miss Morey Amsterdam : )
He speaks wisdom.
Judaism is concerned with people’s behavior, not their beliefs.

that’s not exactly true... an easy example Gen 20:10-11
and Avimelech said to Avraham “what did you see that you did such a thing?”
and Avraham said, Because I said, ‘There is but no fear of G-d in this place and they will slay me because of my wife.”
“One day, God forbid, should there be real anti-Semitism in America, these hysterics will have cried wolf so many times that no one will listen.”
Keep allowing the Islamization of America and this could happen.

Sheesh!
Not could, but God help us I fear will happen.
There is no formal statement of dogma in Judaism, apart from the Shema.
Don’t forget the 13 principles of faith

The Sage Hillel pointed out to a pagan that one should do right by one’s fellow man and all the rest of the Torah is commentary.
This explains the full story

They just want us to wallow in the mire, like they do.
***Why is it laudable for a liberal to hope that conservatives convert to liberalism***
He's making this stuff up! I doubt that any liberal has ever thought that.
***Why is [believing that Christianity is better than Judaism] in any way different from liberals thinking that liberalism is truer and morally superior to conservatism?***
Morally superior? When did killing your unborn children become morally superior? Prager is just plain stupid!
***Liberals not only believe that conservatives are philosophically imperfect, but they often believe that conservatives are bad human beings (something in no way implied by Coulter about Jews).***
Yes, we're "bad" because we're not decadent like they are. We're "bad" because we don't believe in killing our children before they're born. etc etc
***Those are Ann Coulter's people, and they are, by and large, the best friends the Jewish people have today.***
I laughed when I read that. The Christians are such good friends of the Jews, that they want to convert them.
“So what?”
This is a question that needs to be asked more and more when presented with the latest grievance of the perpetually offended.
I guess I should feel offended and attacked because of this...
Man, when did Americans become such touchy, overly-sensitive, whiney BABIES?
Finally, some sanity.
only G-d is perfect but the point here is that without fear of G-d, man’s heart will lead him to evil even if he never did anything wrong before.
Lessee-—Muslims want Jews DEAD. Come to think of it, they want Christians dead too.
So what’s worse, hoping someone will convert or preferring them dead if they don’t?
