Re: War in Gaza
I realized that of course but who was responsible for establishing Israel in 1948? The United Nations. How would the persecuted Jews have seen this reestablishment? Perhaps the same way the persecuted Armenians did when Armenia gained its independence in 1990? And I guess this is the first I ever h...

Re: Bunny Trails
I think this is futile. ISRAEL was attacked October 7. Threatened to be completely anialated. You may go there and help them out with why they were supposed to just roll over and let that happen. Can you explain how Israel choosing to bomb Orthodox and Catholic churches is okay? There is no reasona...

Re: War in Gaza
It's trying to understand the mindset of the Jewish people. "The Jewish people" are not of one single mindset. There are very different viewpoints in Israel. Some people advocate a two-state solution, others a one-state solution, etc. I truly am not "evangelically" influenced ab...

Re: War in Gaza
The perspective Valerie has is not an uncommon one, and to be frank, it is one that I keep hearing from various evangelical sorts of people. They speak as if the Bible actually condones anything the present-day State of Israel wants to do when it goes to war. I find this approach to scripture troubl...

Re: MennoNet and Genealogy
Yiddish is estimated to be 200,000 speakers in Israel. For comparison, standard German is estimated (in Israel) to be 100,000 speakers. Yiddish is estimated to have 100,000 speakers in America and PA Dutch 300,000... although those numbers probably are higher now than when this data was last collect...

Re: NFL “values”
Szdfan,
Do you think the NFL should censure for, fire for, punish for, or otherwise disavow what this football player said in his speech?

Re: War in Gaza
Let me understand this. Women need to wear some kind of footwear, but men should be barefoot, except when they're going to war.

Re: War in Gaza
This idea of a "Jesus army that kills evildoers" is a bit disturbing. Who composes this army?
