I post this every year for Shavu`ot, but as this is the 3320th anniversary of G-d speaking at Sinai it is all the more appropriate this year.

Judaism is a national religion. It provenance rests upon a claim of national revelation. It is recorded in the Torah the entire people accepted the "yoke of Heaven." The author's point being it is easier for an individual to lie than for an entire nation to adopt a fabricated account of its own history. Indeed Maimonides writes the Torah the Jewish people received at Sinai is the one and only revelation and nothing will ever supersede the Torah. Thousands of years have passed and nothing has yet superseded the words God spoke to an entire nation at the mountain in Sinai.
"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus

Respect encompasses finding out why people do something before accusing them of disrespect.

Johnny Appleseed planting apple trees across America with his discarded apple cores is another legend. Um...
Britannica Concise Encyclopedia: Johnny Appleseed
(born Sept. 26, 1774, Leominster, Mass. died March 18?, 1845, near Ft. Wayne, Ind., U.S.) U.S. pioneer and folk hero. He was trained as a nurseryman and began c. 1800 collecting apple seeds from cider presses in Pennsylvania. He then traveled west to the Ohio River valley, planting apple seeds along the way. He tended 1,200 acres of his own orchards and was responsible for hundreds of square miles of others, having sold or given away thousands of apple seedlings to pioneers. His kind and generous nature, devout spirituality, affinity for the Indians and the wilderness, and eccentric appearance (including bare feet, a coffee-sack shirt, and a mush pan for a hat) helped make him a figure of legend.
John Chapman (aka Johnny Appleseed) was a Swedenborgian missionary. Real, live historical figure.

Yes, that is correct. Some of his orchards are still in the family.

True, treating John Chapman as a mere “legend” was a boner on the authors’ parts. Perhaps they didn’t know he was a real person?

Perhaps they didnt know he was a real person?I've heard it said at church that there is an effort to 'create a myth' around Appleseed. I thought that odd because google and wikipedia confirm his existence.
Actually, this is the first I've seen this claim in print. I've also responded to the article directly.

I understood Chapman was (like William Blake) a Swedenborgian, and that he was found dead in the woods sometime in 1847 with a circle of wild animals reverently around him.
Still, Johnny Appleseed isn't the point of the article. They just made a bad comparison.

Did you know Moshe was the most sinful man in the history of the world?
Yes, indeed. He broke all 10 commandments at once!
