It seems to me the talmudists spend their time nitpicking about how the Torah should be interpreted, which is a total waste of time given JC did it for them. Whether they're orthodox or internationalist atheists, they clearly have it in for us. Their total disrespect & disdain for JC is unacceptable. Muslims, on the other hand, do not disrespect Christians, at least not according to my experience. My late husband was from a conservative Muslim family. It would never have entered their mind to speak in a blasphemous way against JC.
You make a great point Kerry, and it's one I've learned for the first time here recently myself.
The Muslims believe Christ to be a prophet and the Quran actually speaks highly of him. Obviously they do not hold Him in His proper place of reverence, but that's leagues of difference from the vile things contained in the Talmud.
Yes, leagues of difference and I can live with their interpretation of JC as a prophet. However, there's a big difference between my late husband's generation (majority of whom were born and raised in Muslim countries, moved to western countries usually to gain a better education and were "secular muslims" for the most part, even if born into conservative Muslim families) and the 2nd/3rd generation born in Europe, much less educated and easily manipulated by our common enemy to destroy western culture, traditions and religion. These are the ones wreaking havoc in France in particular, where I lived for 30 years. I can assure you that my children, a boy and a girl born in early 80s with Muslim surname, had a very hard time growing up in between Muslim fundamentalists and French bigots. Enough to make one schizophrenic when you think about it.
this is so true about Jesus participation when two+ gathered in his name, He never left us, He is everywhere at the same time… and I would go further, believing that He has protected me, cloaked me invisible to someone who was actively hunting me, seeking to harm me even before I was a believer because He knew that eventually I would be a believer.
