> You wrote,[..Christians do not believe in the god of the Jews...(the God that Jews give service and worship to)..]. By what basis do you make that claim?
I don't think that it is supportive for me to enter into a lengthy discussion of religion here. There are varying beliefs as to the interchangeability of gods.
> (be advised that not all Christians believe in the trinity)
How does that change anything for those who do?
1. Be advised that not all Jews believe in God.
2. Be advised that few, if any, religions or philosophies outside of the Abrahamic (Judeo-Christian-Islam) tradition believe in the god of the Jews.
3. Be advised that few, if any, people believe in the Rider that you speak of.
4. Be advised that many people are atheist.
Your stated beliefs exclude the above enumerated peoples from entering Paradise and receiving Eternal Life.
There could be many subsets of people who would renounce their current faiths in order to adopt yours. This could arouse hatred and incite violence by these people towards those who refuse to convert to your faith.
In order for you to retain your fidelity to a doctrine that would have the moderator of these forums sanction those posts on the Faith board that describe the tenets of an exclusionist religion, you must also petition the moderator to sanction your own.
I hope that you now see the equivalence of your posts along this thread to those you cite in the archives of the Faith forum as having the potential to arouse hate and incite violence because they describe the tenets of an exlusionist religion.
Do you still feel that your crusade is supportive?
