Israel: a rabbi urges his colleagues not to meet with Pope Benedict XVI

[SleepingSun27]

What, so just because the Pope is German they don't want him to visit a holocaust memorial? Just because there's a wacky conspiracy theory on Pius XII on helping Hitler, they're against a Pope decades later? Just because the Pope supports Catholics in the Holy Land because He is the head of the Roman Catholic Church, they do not welcome it? Propaganda, lies, and stupid, stupid arguments that hurt peace between Christians and Jews.

@justonemorename Religion is a disappointment to the creator, not one worthy of being saved. This was the message of the genuine Christ Messiah, but they knew him not. Sin is good business you know! Salvation was $19.95 last year, now it has gone up to $49.95 and they put the legal disclaimer on t.v that they use your donation for ANY purpose they desire. Praise the baby Jesus invention of the Roman Christendom Empire. Col 4:11. Why is the world full of Christians? Even deny there own scriptures

[stoodOnAnArk]

@justonemorename Shall we dissect revelation 3:9 that you allude to?

There is a very important part in the middle of the Scripture that reveals the correct interpretation. Can you see it, would it relate to Jewish people or Gentiles?

Now looking closely it states those whom worship the Christ above the holy spirit are the......... Those whom deny their Jewish heritage are the ........

Congregation of Satan.

see the counter-clause!

[stoodOnAnArk]

@justonemorename Nazis are Christians! Didn't you know that Adolph Hitler was a devout Roman Catholic. Ask the Pope who Saint Lucifer of Cagliari was, and why he was so controversial?

You should read Revelation 3:9 before casting stones at your brothers, another false witness exposed.

Next.

Do you still love me?

I have not read of any Synagogue scandals related to abusing little children, hiding pedophiles and allowing them to continue abusing in other regions.

[bohemianh]

who really cares?

[stoodOnAnArk]

They say that child abuse is a crime, I feel sorry for the Pope, in as much as he was forced to be brainwashed in the Hitler youth. Can one recover from such abuse?

[SinnFein4ever]

And once again, we see an example of what organized religion brings to the world.

People need to grow up and realize that there is no big invisible sky-daddy up there; take sole responisbility for their actions, and learn to be more tolerant of eachother.

Religion just promotes war, violence, and injustice.

Islam is as barbaric today, as the Christians were in the Dark Ages, and as the Jews were 3,000 years ago, when they went around slaughtering everyone who didn't worship "the one God".

[IZACHE1]

Islam does NOT worship a different god...Muslims worship The One God and God only...Allah (SWT). One of the "differences" is that we associate NO partners with Him and nothing or anything is like unto Him...get it right please. =0)

[glizag]

WHO the heck does the Pope think he is.

No Jew should meet this deceiver, never mind have a dialogue with this anti christ.

Let the Vatican go to the Devil, where most of its Popes are are present.

[jpmac23]

The Only Way We Will Have Peace Is If Islam Is Stopped.

Islam Is The Cause of 90% Of The Problems.

Christianity & Judaism Should Be On Good Terms Because We Worship The Same God.

Christianity Is Of The Same Root As Judasism,

Islam Worship A Different god, They Have No Place In Judaism Nor Christianity...

[havock89]

I thought the "myth of Hilters Pope" dispelled all the crap people have been saying about Pius during the WWII?

Obviously some people have not read it!

[13mns]

The only way there can be peace in the Middle East is to have the entire area under United Nations Rule and abolish both Palestine and Israel. The zionists want to kick everyone out of the country but jews. The moslems want everyone out but islam. The Christians want to convert everyone and eliminate non believers.

When you have naughty children fighting over toys..the toy is put in time our and no one gets it. Same applies to the middle east.

[havock89]

What a load of rubbish.

Every nation on earth has a homeland, apart from the jews, and you want to take it away from them?

Lets have the state take your home away and see how you like it?

[13mns]

Judaism is religion not a nation. Religions do not need homelands. They are world wide. The issue here is if God is a Realtor or if God is a Nationalist. God is neither. The world belongs to all people.There is no Holy Land. All the earth is sacred. God has no chosen people or nationality. God loves us equally and expects each of us to do the same. If you want peace you must have justice. Cheating Palestinians out of their land is theft. Killing each other in the name of God is blasphemy.

[havock89]

Absolutely not. You dont have the right to dictate to others what their cultural identity is. Judaism is unique, in that their culture and religion are interwoven, and cannot be separated. They were formed as a people by the covenant which was formed with God through Abraham.

"God has no chosen people or nationality."

Simply asserting this does not make it true.

"Cheating Palestinians out of their land is theft."

If people were sending rockets into my back yard, I'd war too.

[13mns]

Read the parable about Lazarus and the Rich Man. This is a story by Jesus which basically explains that the Covenant with the Jews as an exclusive "People of God" is over..and has been extended to all man kind.. St Paul said the same thing. Jews and Gentiles are equal in God's sight. The Exodus, is basically an allegorical story. It is not a political manifesto. Mixing politics, religion, and culture is always a bad mix. Sorry I don't buy into your version of fatith. We agree to disagree.

[havock89]

Your interpretation is very selective. There are many time jesus talks about God's relationship with his people.

jews and Gentiles have the capacity of being equal in His sight. Only through baptism are we capably of sharing in Abrahams' descendents relationship with God.

Your argument is a nonsequitor. The existence of the new testament does not impact the validity of the old testament.

Sorry I dont buy into your version of faith. Mine is based on apostolic teachings.

[thejazzman2009]

If somebody Kicked me out of my own back yard. Id send rockets to knock the beenies off their head. Judaism is unique in that their culture reinforces a belief that they are a superior race and everybody outside that box has no value. They need to persecuted for their crimes against humanity. And im confident that day will come

[havock89]

Using rockets against civilians is horrifically evil, and will result in military action. I dont blame the israeli forces at all.

If you are talking about religious beliefs, this is not so. History plainly shows that jews have lived all over europe, peacfully and prosperously. However if you are gonna talk about a people who hold no value for those who are outside the box, islam has a rich history!

You need to see how evil your obsession against judaism is. Your own words convict you.

[RubinGnoni]

MeekaMakkaMooka, I'm with you 100%. I don't believe any of these guys. Good people don't waste time teasing others. Rabiis, Pope, whatever, are all full of it.
