[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I thought Messianic Judaism was a front put up by evangelical Christians to convert Jews.[/b]

I would prefer either traditional Judaism or traditional Christianity over this purported middle road.[/quote]

It is. Which is deeply offensive. Every one of those Jews for Jesus gives a middle finger to our (sometimes shared) ancestors who resisted conversion to keep Judaism alive in an unbroken chain across millenia. [/quote]

And here we get to the nub of the matter. Xenophobia. [/quote]

Actually it’s anti-semitism, but you know that. [/quote]

Actually everything is anti-semitism. Even your quote right above, where you oppose Jews for Jesus, because that must be anti-semitism too, apparently.[/quote]

The part that reads (to me) like antisemitism is the part where Jews are accused of xenophobia because we don't want Christians pretending they're Jewish, and that somehow that's the "nub" of the issue with Jews for Jesus. If a synagogue declared tomorrow that it's the real Catholic Church and their rabbi was the pope, would Catholics who objected to that be the problem? Or would the synagogue doing it be?[/quote]
