you dont allow comments about your messiah vid?

[vulcanmat613]

I did for about 9 months - I kept getting flooded by morons asking the same questions and quoting the same verses, so I closed the comments, but you can see the discussion therein - any point the christians or messianics have has been raised and defeated at least once.

Mussar is a Jewish thing so a gentile chabad has no business talking about it.

great work

[vulcanmat613]

It means that they did not follow Judaism at all. Judaism is not a religion - to call it such puts it in the same rickety, sinking boat as man-made faiths. These people were Jews, but as you said, by blood only.

so jewish by blood, but not religiously

right

[vulcanmat613]

sure he was - so was jesus, marx, and many other figures which represent ieas that are against the torah. Just because a jew is behind something doesn't make it jewish - actually, nowadays it's usually the opposite.

thanks

and wasn't freud a jew?

[vulcanmat613]

My friend, freud attributed all of man's actions to lowly, superficial, deviant motivations, robbing him of any divinity of the soul, or goodness. The idea of the id, ego and superego is not what made him so bitterly cynical in and of themselves, but rather what he expounded with them. I don't have many videos available right now, so if you want to learn more about judaism I'd recommend visiting aish dot com, askmoses dot com and chabad dot org.

hi vulcanman

this kind of sounds like Sigmund Freud's id, ego, and superego
