Signals of a Shift

This agenda may very well signal an important shift in a sense of Jewish identity, at least for a portion of the younger Jewish generation in America.

Too bad these Jews will lose their faith and tradition by dialoguing with evangelical Protestants who have neither.

The holocaust doesn't compare to what the Jews are doing to the Palestinians? That must be some really good hallucinogenics you are taking. 6 million dead vs 3000 and most of those in self defense.

Silvão (Brazil):

The fact that a truly christianity is judaism´s extension is the unavoiding reality of this century. A lot of jews are accepting Jesus, and christians on their hand are recognizing the importance of the torah, besides they are recongizing the importance of the TEN COMANDMENTS also.
The Christian religion has this duty, since christians had caused most of the separation... with such hatefull historical behavior (nazism, middle-ages catholicism,...)They must promote a new mutual friendship. Christianity is a extension of judaism, so it could not denny its most important rabbi, Jesus Christ

Sam:

Jewish holocaust in Europe is nothing compared to the Palestinian holocaust at the hand of Israelis in the occupied teritories.Jews all over the world should feel ashamed of mentioning the word 'HOLOCAUST'anymore due to their heinous cries against humanity in Palestine. Palesinians,being Moslems or Christians,are being treated like subhumans. Their houses are being demolished,their children are being jailed or killed on daily basis,their little farms are being bulldozed.Any Jew from all over the world is entitled for Israeli citizenship upon his arrival at Ben Gorion Airport, while the orginal land owners are not permitted even to visit the houses they were kicked from in Israel.The whole world should be ashamed of tolerating such an apartheid regime to cintinue in the 21st century. Israel as a pure Jewish state should not be permitted to continue anymore. Israel does have the right to exist but within its legal borders under UN resolution 181 and as a secular state for all its citizens regardless of their religion.Palestinian refugees must be given the right to return to their stolen homes and belongings in Israel.The only solution for this chronic Dlemma is establishing one secular state on all the land of Historical Palestine for Jews,Moslems and Christians with equal rights and responsibilities and without any kind of descrimination.
