"I will grant you that there are some gray areas in these issues. Jewish law is full of common law - interpretations of the Torah and rules and regulations by rabbinical bodies and the 4 recognized branches of Judaism who have separate formal “constitutions “ and rules on an international level."

The (quote) above kinda says it all IMO. Gray areas!! What a bunch of hogwash. I understand that anyone has the RIGHT to worship/believe any way they want in this Country. But all of us also have the right to free speech. Thus we are allowed to point out the BULLSHIT that some folks abide when in search of some sort of spiritual "haven" to hang their hat/bank their chips. I got some truth for y'all.

There is NO haven on earth. This globe is NOT ruled/controlled by ANYONE's God. According to your own basis for your beliefs (The Bible) the earth is NOT God's domain. Until HIS return, evil dominates the Globe, so says the Bible.

I repeat any group so F'd up as to make all sorts of exclusionary/inclusionary RULES to decide who is worthy of acceptance on human terms is NOT a group I'd WANT to be a part of. God is love. It is quite simple. Any walk in beauty requites humility to his/her Spirit.

NOT some complex decipher to figure out IF you qualify!!
Jewishness sounds like a REAL BAD Lodge to be a member of.

Proof of your antisemitism and ignorance about the difference between free speech and religions.

no one ever said Tangplay can’t worship as he likes.
antisemites are against Jews in Israel and Jews running their own religion.

you have one rule for Jews and another set of rules for all the other religions.

Furthermore only Judaism adds In people who are not Jews as Jews. You understand nothing.

this discussion is about Christians being able to technically qualify as Jews.

you want Israel swamped by non Jews and now Judaism can’t set its own rules either.

any nazi flags at home?

Btw - we are persecuted because we refuse to join the other lodges.

that is the reason why we never prostltize. It is forbidden.
we don’t seek converts.
and we only take the truly interested.

And also you should realize that while we do not believe that “He” will return in “accordance” with the Bible as you adamantly insist

we believe that if there is a heaven it is for everyone regardless of what religion or no religion or atheism as long as you are a good person.

pretty good for an “exclusionary” religion.

So I'm supposed to search on Google for a part of "Jewish Law" that doesn't exist?

Do you think this makes you look good? You're a clown. You have no idea what you are talking about. If this part of "Jewish law" actually existed, you would cite it.

Some advice: Next time, don't speak with authority on issues that you haven't researched beforehand. You come off looking like a fool.

I have researched it and I told you the truth.
you do not wish to accept it.

you are bigoted for saying I make this stuff up and have not researched it.

I am expanding my internet research and personal learning by beginning to contact rabbis from each of the 4 denominations.
I have 2 calls in.

the status of a person such as yourself is complex and I admit there may be variations from denomination to denomination but I am now on a mission to get answers from a higher authority.

Man are you over reactive. I'm no anti-semite as I'd say the exact same shiite about Mormonism, Catholicism, Baptistism, Assembly of Godism, and any other ISM that attempts to place ITS RULES in the way of a simple relationship between the Maker and his creation. Life. Even human life.

And your "mission" will fail as it has a flawed protocol.
This is NO authority on who the Maker will or will not accept.
Save the Maker.
No Rabbi has that power. Nor Bishop, Pastor, Minister, etc.
THEY are ALL flawed.

Lately, my friend Dino, you've exhibited an extreme amount of arrogance and judgmental conclusions about others around here (usually in defense of Israel and the Jewish folks), calling anyone who disagrees with you names (like anti-semite). It's unbecoming and harmful to your reputation and damaging to (legitimate) liberal positions on issues. I'll ask again. Have you been taking your meds properly?

If you've researched it, and know all of this stuff by heart, should be easy for you to find a quote.

Dino is once again confused as to the difference between Judaism and being Jewish.

I'm not a part of the Jewish religion. I don't follow Judaism.

I am still Jewish.

Trying to switch rapidly between the two to look like you're making a point is very sneaky and dishonest.

None. I don't fly purposefully display any ignorance I still possess. As you seem so bent on...............

Judaism is FAR FROM the only "ism" to add people not of their own "ilk" inclusion. You know nothing of other religions, quite obviously.

Jack off much?

You can call yourself Jewish. My research into several articles says no.
being Jewish is mostly religion.

If you think you are Jewish you should care enough to look it up.

im going to rabbis to get the best sources.

I guess that is not good enough for you.

Whether or not you are Jewish hinges on whether the child of a mother who converted to Christianity from Judaism and has a son who has always been a practicing Christian by choice is considered to be a Jew after the age of majority.

the issue is whether you are technically Jewish or not according to Jewish law which may have different readings much like the way the Supreme Court interprets laws.

one would think if you were really posting in good faith that you would salute the consulting of 4 rabbis but not you.

also I will mention that you had a bar mitzvah but as a Christian engaging in the Jewish tradition.

Certainly not good enough for me.
No wonder the Germans and the Jewish had trouble getting along.
The two most self aggrandizing peoples I've ever been around.
Not to mention Texans and Arabs, of course.

And, while I'm at it, uppitty wimmin, Junkies, TV preachers, and most of the assorted vermin that resides in Florida.

Can't we do a trade??
Say, Texas, Oklahoma, and Florida, for Greenland, Aruba, Curacao, and Sonora.
Gotta have my cheap Tacos.

I don’t give a flying **** what you think you under the radar antisemite.

Technical smechnical. Hocus Pocus.
Repeat after me Tangy.

Kerplet, goozput, droop the stooler, open sesame.
Repeat that twice, spin around four times, crouch and genuflect.

NOW, you are a Jew. Congrats!

Jeesh Dino, did you really expect a small Gift Certificate to cause me to suspend my intellect just so's we could be Forum "pals"???

I think you're a cheapass manipulator of truth who thinks he can buy a friend.
I think you should get a love doll.
Or a really dumb dog.

A dog doesn't care what an *** you are, they'll still smell your *** if you let em.
And you can call the dog your friend, and even verbally abuse them, but they'll still TRY and love you.
I suspect with you some Dogs might have difficulty though.
Some will likely prefer the odds at the local dog pound.
