I appreciate that, and this is why I defend Christianity at my university, even though I'm Jewish.

"Perhaps he [Foxman] should consider practicing Judaism."

There's no perhaps about it.

That's an interesting perspective. I have to think on that, but you raise a very good point.

Your post #74 is right on the money! The public face of Judaism (Foxman et al) is a comfort to neo-Nazis and a barrier to the world coming to Torah!

You know, for a fairly mainstream community, the actual contents of the Jewish religion don't seem to be known at all. How many Americans know what a lulav cluster or a hosha`-na' bundle is?

Are you a Noachide, familyop? If so, it's great to know I'm not totally alone.

Great article.

Foxman & ADL = Edgar & National Council of Churches.

Maybe like Paul they need the scales removed from their eyes.

That is precisely what they need. As do we all.

God willing, they will receive it.

If Foxman lives to see God and Christians removed from American life he will be the first into the ovens of the Leftist Regime and New World Order.

Yep.

The murder of Diedrich Bonhoeffer comes to mind.

Christians want for Jews what they want for themselves -- salvation by grace through faith in Jesus Christ.

Last week I had the priviledge to attend a fund raising dinner whose keynote speaker was Dennis Praeger. It was an event sponsored by both the Christian and Jewish community in Nashville Tn to raise funds to make a documentary film in support of Israel.

Dennis was going to talk about bias in the media but when he saw 300 Christian and Jewish people sitting in a room together enjoying each others company and vision he decided to talk on this "new" love and respect he is seeing between Evangelical Christians and Jews. He said our common values far outweigh our religious differences.

There is a huge coming together of these two faiths to combat the cultural changes that are trying to destroy our country. Yes, it will be the Christian Right that will stand up to any anti semeticism in this country however when men like Foxmen and organizations like the ACLU keep attacking Christianity in this country it will be hard to keep the tide from turning. THAT NONE OF US WANT.

I think the Conservative Jewish voice should be far more vocal publicly to denounce Foxman and the ACLU so as to stop their destructive agenda. Just as Americans are crying out for the Muslim population to stand up and denounce radical Islam so are the Christians crying for the Jewish voice to publicly and loudly denounce Foxman and the ACLU.

I think many of us are moving towards that. It's been happening a lot in private, but doing it in public is not an action held in high esteem. However, it looks like an inevitability at this point.

The ACLU is not Jewish. In values, outlook or action. Though quite a few Jews do belong to it, unfortunately. Foxman is, however, quite an embarassment. He's not the most popular guy in the Jewish community either. He's more like an intellectual celebrity: quoted in the Jewish papers because he's famous, and with little other reason.

I and hundreds of "Christians" celebrated Tabernacles with our lulav's this year and have been for the last ten years. Thousands upon thousands of Believers world wide have left the organized "church" and have come back to a walk in the Hebrew roots of our faith preferring to celebrated the Holy Feasts of Lev. 23 rather than Christmas and Easter.

As the Orthodox Jews believe that the ten lost tribes aka the House of Israel that was carried off in exile by Assyria in 721 BC to be brought back and reunited with the House of Judah when the Messiah returns, hundreds of thousands of Believers feel they are the scattered Abraham's seed that the Messiah will regather on the Lord's Day. This is why there is such a igniting of mutual love and respect now going on between the Evangelical Christians and the Jewish people. All written in the PLAN Amos 3:7.

The first is that God created us in His image and placed us here. The second is that through a lengthy process of unaided materialistic evolution, primitive protoplasm became Bach, Beethoven, and the Beatles.

...or Maimonides, or Einstein...

But the morality of Christianity is also the morality of Judaism - hence the expression Judeo-Christian ethic. By maintaining their loyalty to the eternal values revealed at Sinai, Christians have become pariahs in the eyes of the establishment, but heroes in our eyes.

There's Daniel Lapin, Don Feder, Ben Shapiro, Ben Stein, Debbie Schlussel, Mona Charen, Irving Kristol, William Kristol, Norman Podhoretz, John Podhoretz and Michael Medved. As you can see, there are prominent conservative Jews in America.
