It’s creepy, sinister, and antithetical to Jesus. In the meantime, I wish our Jewish brothers and sisters a peaceful Passover and wishing peace for our brothers and sisters in Palestine and freedom from the yoke of Zionist tyranny. May God finally guide the Jewish people to a true peace and to doing the good their book promises.

^^^and here it is! The reason why this post was started. It is getting tiresome.

Yowza, my emotions were all over the place reading this response.

How about this?

Both you and your Christian friend are misguided in many ways.

HAHAHAHAHA thank you for that laugh.

Good one!!!!

I'll admit that the last sentence is my opinion. But the previous sentence is a historical fact taught in any Religious Studies 101 class in any university.

Tell me you went to a hyper Christian college that makes up lessons to fit its narrative without telling me you went to a hyper Christian college that makes up lessons to fit its narrative.

Christianity being older than Judaism is literally impossible. You're really off your rocker with this one.

No, definitely have a secular education. Maybe that's how I know this.

Dude. Just stop.

I don't need you to tell me when the destruction of the Second Temple occurred, thanks.

So basically just wanted to confirm that you're just going to ignore Temple Judaism like it never existed, and make the claim that Christianity is older than Judaism? Cool.

You're conflating two subjects and you're ridiculous.

I never said Christianity is older than "Judaism". I said Christianity is older than "Rabbinical Judaism," which is just true. Rabbinic Judaism does not have any kind of exclusive claim to previous traditions, as much as it might like to. Rabbinic Judaism is radically, radically different from Second Temple and prior expressions of Judaism.

Rabbinic Judaism is not radically, radically different than Temple Judaism. Obviously there were changes made in practice, but no core beliefs were changed.

Also, what is your point? Because I don't care about the "split," it has nothing to do with Jesus being in the Exodus Passover story. So why comment?

From earliest days, Christians (at first all ethnically Jewish) understood the Passover and subsequent Exodus and freedom from bondage to be typological of Christ's sacrifice for our freedom. That's why. You presuppose that Christians are borrowing the Exodus from Judaism. My point is that we see it as original to our faith tradition (which continues back to eternity past), typological, prophetic, and fulfilled in Christ.

No.

You have Easter to celebrate your proclaimed Messiah.

Leave Passover and Jewish traditions out of your home.

We all live in the United States. We all have complete religious freedom and can worship any way we want. You can do whatever you want, as can everyone, regarding religion and religious practices. You have no right to tell people how to practice their religion. You should mind your own business and concern yourself with your own household. Don’t worry about others, because it isn’t your business.

My parents’ Lutheran church hosted a Seder for congregants, complete with Seder plates and Haggadot. I think that was very disrespectful, even though that’s the opposite of what they intended. Passover isn’t a party theme, like casino night.

I doubt it was disrespectful.

You have a Christian holiday that incorporates the texts of Exodus. It’s called Easter. The Jewish seder is a Jewish ritual that is not Christian in the slightest.

Troll thread and not a very good one.

PP above and I agree 100% with you on this!!! I am not saying celebrate Passover. I am saying Passover is fulfilled in Holy Week and Easter, so Christians should not celebrate the prophecy, they should celebrate the fulfillment.

^^exactly. I’m however coming to understand that nobody is interested in theology.

Legally, Christians can host Seders. Their right to do so is protected by law, as it should be. No one has said they should go to jail for it.

But there are lots of things that are legal, that are also terrible things to do. And being free society doesn't just give people the right to do things that are wrong. It also gives people the right to tell other people that what they are doing is wrong.

All pp has to do is not attend church events they aren’t interested in.

pp does not have the right to judge someone else’s religious practices.

Freedom of religion is for everyone. If you don’t like what other people do when practicing their religion, avert your eyes, and keep it moving. You don’t have any right to complain or ask them to stop or change because of your beliefs or opinions. You have a pet or child or job or tv show or perhaps your own religion to attend to, so attend. Problem solved.

No one has any right or responsibility to tell people they are practicing their own religion wrong.

People practicing their religion is not “terrible.”

People practicing their religion isn’t “wrong.”

People need to mind their own business, and not get involved in other people’s religious practices. Period.

They basically stole an indigenous tribal religion and then claimed they were the “real” Jews. I’d they want to take over Passover too, there isn’t much we can do. So just relax.

This is libelous. And who do you think "They" are? They were Jews!
