Fellow Jews, do you wonder If any of the users here who come to questions asking about Jewish belief and give ?

Yes they are dangerous, which is why we don't give out any personal information that even YA employees might get. On another chat program, link below, a Jewish family was attacked in their home in New Jersey. The article has some suggestions. It is a couple of years old.

I am at a loss as well to make this system work from the ground up unless YA Owners and Board/Administration is willing to enforce their policy. Sorry you lost your Contributor Badge. A good place to start is logging incidents time, place, posts, etc. to make a case.

I do know of instances where watchdog groups ADL and JDL intervened because of threatening websites and arrests were made.

In some countries (Scandinavia, Germany, Australia, Iceland, EU, and others) "hate speech" has a legal definition and not allowed by anyone. In the U.S. "free speech" via the 1st Amendment makes hate speech legislation difficult, although there are limits such as "incitement to riot and defamation" but only for certain protected groups. Racism and Anti-Semitism are not protected and are allowed. A Federal Court recognized the right for the American Nazi party to march through a Jewish suburb in Skokie, Illinois. So all the Skinheads, Neo-Nazis and Jihad Terrorists from all the other countries that don't allow hate speech set up websites in the US.

So that is be discreet, keep track of incidents and contact YA administration, contact ADL/JDL for any threats, work on national policy for hate speech and just keep speaking the truth one post at a time.

i'm sorry you rambled on a bit there .what is the question again?

only joshing

the world is made up of so many different people with so many different beliefs

its going to be hard for everyone to get on with everyone else

besides if all religions were abolished then some one find something else to go to war over

stick with the one true religion

JEDI and

THE FORCE

and may it be with you

ADDITIONAL:

to your additional yes i do have a sense of humour and i do think that this could be a place to voice some hatred to other relgions races etc that i dont condone for 1 bit and no we shouldnt have symbols to show your faith to.ie stars, crosses,birds,horseshoes,winged insects as for duct tape it does not have a light side and a dark side but a sticky side and a shiny side lmao

if you cant laugh what can you do eh???

I am not jewish but I will answer anyway. As a Pagan, we have the same problem.

I find that those who accept the misinformation are not concerned with the truth of another religion and for the ones that put out the misinformation willfully are here doing it because they can hide behind a keyboard and not be identified. As far as being a danger physically in person, very few of them. If they were actually a danger to any of us, they would be out on the streets and in clubs where they could physically do the damage. I have run across some neo-nazis personally and their bark was all that they had, there was no bite. This is not to sy a danger does not exist but fear is their best weapon. The consistent posting of misinformation, giving the illusion of having "power" to influence others, is one of the only ways these people with their weak egos get any feeling of self worth.

The best response is to continue to be honest about your faith and post accurate information. Aside from this, continue to send a short private mail to those you believe are honest with their information even if it is not what you agree with. Some months ago you sent me a private mail when I answered a question with an answer as I understood it to be. You were respectful and promoted me to look further into the area where I had differed. On some points I have learned differing interpretations for various religions. I look at your answers to promote me to look further into your beliefs as I do with some others. I also have learned that there are some who I do not even need to take their answers as serious by their various postings of misinformation. I will still read them to see how their mind tends to "work" but do not take any of their info serious.

Just know that you are being honest and true to your beliefs and that some of us look to you as one source of information and inspiration to look further. We also do recognise the BS when we are honestly interested in learning.

As far as Y/A, I doubt there is anything that would be effective, they do not want to be accused of censorship.

Bright Blessings

I am sure these vermin are NOT actually Lutherans but I am sure they follow his maxim:

Martin Luther: What harm would it do, if a man told a good strong lie for the sake of the good and for the Christian church...a lie out of necessity, a useful lie, a helpful lie, such lies would not be against God, he would accept them?

My feeling is that the group of people in this forum who persistently demonise Judaism and ignore our polite requests for them to stop lying, are not physically a risk - but I do agree that they are type of people who would happily stand by and watch, or even join in, if ever another Hitler-type leader were to rise to power. G-D FORBID.

Also of concern are the members, in this forum, of the Christian Evangelical Cult that calls itself Messianic "judaism". They regularly call US 'liars' when we articulate *accurate* Jewish theology.

And alarmingly *some* people here choose to believe THEM even as they blatantly try and REdefine the very essence of Judaism and Jewish belief and identity.

The Messianic Cult is causing a lot of bad feeling between Jews and Christians, which is a great shame. Hopefully all honourable Christians will join us in showing them that lying is wrong and that trying to hijack the very word 'Jewish' is simply NOT going to happen!

The number of people who support the idea that Judaism 'must' include a CHRISTIAN Evangelical Cult as part of the Jewish faith, is LUNACY.

A Jew who adopts Christianity is a CHRISTIAN.

They are not a 'jew for jesus' and they are not a Messianic '"jew".

They are a Christian. Period.

Ma'am, I see others on here that seem to 'miss the point' (big time). Even other christians attacking other christians, asserting they are not 'christians', yet not accepting the '2 or more witnesses principle' given to Jews, Muslims, and Christians; yet is not uniformly 'taught' thruout the USA presently. That principle (when applied) by Christians significantly changes several 'definitions'.

i think the best answer is to send email to trusted friends to clean them out.

Any human is capable of hate. Don't fore get that Jesus got to see that hate from the Pharisees, and the Sadducee's, so it is not limited to any certain group. The best way to deal with the hate is to kill em with kindness. If they still hate you after that then it will be on them in the end.

The time is long overdue for Jews to repent and turn back to God.

Judge not that you be not judged.

Why do you not respond to God's judgements against you?

Oh -it's the PC thought police again, soliciting views and moulding opinion.

Go away.
