Maybe you can correct me if my memory fails me. Paul was specific in his declaration that circumcision was no longer a necessary sacrament. However, it was this act that was precisely the covenant made between God and the Jews through Abraham. Communion became a sacrament that the Jews were not to follow.
The reason I bring these things up is not so much to test whether my memory is accurate or not. I'm sure it is not. The question becomes how should conflicts in belief be handled as civil communication on the Faith board. Personally, I don't believe that we are all riding on the back of a turtle. However, I can still tolerate others having this belief.
What about religious beliefs that are used by some to foster antisemitism? I am not smart enough to know how to deal with this.
