dweller Said:
your revisionist associates at work and you carry on their tradition with your intentional efforts to hide the truth.
All of your tangents about your nitzris “brilliant sayings’, what is a christian source, who is a christian, etc etc etc are simply attempts to deflect attention from that one thing which YOU never confront:
therefore your beilief in your nitzri is based on your INTUITION plus:
bernard ross Said:
its really that simple. You lead the forum in circles, piling on irrelevant tangents and mountains of obfuscating irrelevant garbage, in the hope everyone forgets the simple obvious point.

@ yamit82:
My comment [blockquoted above] was directed to Ross, not you. It was included in a post which replied to yours, which had asserted ‘petulance’ — however, my remark was about BR, who certainly DOES have a thing about getting in the last word. That’s precisely WHY he checked the ‘Yellow star’ forum after it had expired. He was indeed being a petulant cry-baby in bringing up the matter in the first place.
Nonetheless, you do have a thing about envy (just as he does), albeit of a different sort.
Not bad, as self-descriptions go. Not bad at all.
That’s one department around here where everyone else disagrees with YOU. You show me somebody who doesn’t wanna be last man standing, and I’ll show you a bull with tits.
A child is often closer to truth (less cluttered, as yet, w/ the world’s BS) than his/her elders. He may not be able to express himself very effectively about it, but he does sense the ugly reality that others have learned to obliterate from their waking consciousness.
WTF would you like for me to do w/ what is unmistakably sheer projection? — Take it for — (you-should-excuse-the-expression:) G o s p e l ?
If you really believe that, then you’re slower on the uptake, even, than Ross, because he ABSOLUTELY cares, and knows damned well when threads are set to expire — but he simply assumes that you know when they expire too, and that you’re just covering for him with this load of shuck.
That was no defense; that was a counterattack, a riposte — and if you think it was ‘lame,’ you’ve yet to state what’s ‘lame’ ABOUT it.
Indeed, it certainly IS closed — yet you keep trying to reopen it.
More psychobabble from a babbling psycho. Plus ça change, plus c’est pareil. . . .
@ yamit82:
You asked the wrong person; no way BR would know.
If you’d asked ME — instead of making an ass of yourself this way — I could’ve told you.
Mar’s comment was NOT from “6 wks ago.” Her comment was posted Dec 12, less than 3 wks ago.
My response appears only ONCE, not twice, in the posting record. However, it went into moderation and remained there for a long time.
When have I ever claimed to memorize whole posts verbatim? Show me the text of the specific item where I supposedly said that.
And then go soak your head.

@ dweller:
Bernard can you figure out why your friend here re-posted mar55’s comment from some 6 weeks ago with the same ans or some facsimile of his ans then NOW and Here????
I wonder if he re-posted it entirely from memory as he claims to do?
@ bernard ross:
“Christianity” hasn’t even been around for “2000 years” — and to whatever extent it has ‘revised’ or ‘discredited’ the Jews & the Bible is strictly hearsay (and hearsay at least twice removed) coming from somebody who, like yourself, lacks the intellectual integrity (to say nothing of courage) to even so much as read the basic texts for himself.
Your refusal to review for yourself any of the relevant primary or original sources makes your OWN claims far more suspect than mine.
@ bernard ross:
The Jewish community does not doubt the Jewish authorship of NT. So your characterizing the gospels as strictly ‘christian’ narratives is disingenuous at best.
Again, you beg the question. You have yet to establish that the gospel account constitutes ‘myth.’
Take it up w/ Joseph Atwill. It was HE who (quite zealously) characterizes the Jesus of the gospels as “gentle” and “pacifistic.” The comment of mine which you referenced merely challenged Atwill’s characterization.
This is silly nonsense Gentiles wouldn’t have had the capability to systematically ‘crib.’
@ bernard ross:
Nonsense. They bear witness to the existence of WHOEVER it was that said them, somebody clearly in a class by himself — and one, moreover, of 1st century Jewish background. You can’t get around that, no matter how much you wiggle & squirm.
Oh? — show us a few, by way of comparison.
You DO need to read the relevant material to establish that they ARE ‘fairy tales.’ Otherwise, you identify yourself as a know-nothing and an intellectual bigot.
Define “Jewish source” as you use the term.
Is JOSEPHUS Jewish enough for you?
So, SUETONIUS and TACITUS aren’t “secular sources?”
In the face of many requests you continue to refuse to define “Christian source” as you use the term.
— Why should anybody take you seriously?
WHAT “beating around the bush”???
As long as you refuse to read the pertinent materials, you are clearly disinterested in discovering the simple facts.
Where have I said I didn’t know what christian sources are on this issue?
What I have done is asked you to define YOUR USE of the term “christian sources” and you continue to sidestep the question.
The Jewish community disagrees with you. There is no serious doubt within the broader Jewish community that NT was the work of 1st century Jews. The only questions within the community are over the significance of NT, not over its Jewish authorship.
Not ‘persons’ — person; singular. No way those sayings were concocted — and if they weren’t concocted, what does that leave you?
dweller Said:
there is no way of saying that Jesus ever existed according to christian narratives.
dweller Said:
This is what happens when you start to believe that the myths are true. Literary critics discuss the behaviors of characters like Odysseus with the same zeal. Those who watch sop operas also begin to beleive in the existence of the characters in the real world. A character in a novel is as consistent as his author directs.
dweller Said:
DUH??? christianity has based itself on its version of the Hebrew bible. therefore, they had extensive material to crib in formulating their narratives and assigning the narratives to mythological figures. Since they are the only support for the existence of these figures, and the narratives, it becomes obvious that their historical record wrt the Hebrew bible and jews makes their narratives immediately suspect. Jesus, the disciples, the virgin birth, the resurrection, the second coming, etc have no Jewish attestation for their existence. christianity has spent 2000 years revising and discrediting the Jews and their bible. Your choice of sources makes your claims suspect at the very least.
dweller Said:
the supposed brilliance of your nitzris sayings has absolutely not one shred of relevance to the facts of his existence. many mythological characters have made brilliant sayings.
dweller Said:
Aside from the bit of ludicrous psychobabble you inseterted here, I suppose the friggin document you refer to is the NT. I have no need to read fairy tales. It still stands that there are no jewish sources attesting to the existence of the “jew” you call Jesus or his disciples, his virgin birth, his resurrection, his second coming, etc. Perhaps you can cite them, also I see no secular sources. The only attestations of his existence is from the NT and other christian sources. All you beating around the bush does not change the simple facts.
Show me the jewish sources that attest to the existence of JC and his disciples.
I have already told you that I cannot assign any credibility to Christianity on this issue. If you do not know what christian sources, or Christianity are on this issue then go through the last 2000 years of swindling,libeling, torturing and slaughtering of jews and I will wager that even you might stumble upon some christian perpetration. also, look around today at the BDS churches. Your continued attempts to make simple issues complex is an indication of your continued need to claim that defend a mythology.
I do not need to read Mein Kampf to arrive at conclusions regarding the credibility of AH wrt jews. I do not need to read the NT to arrive at conclusions regarding the credibility of christianity wrt Jews. So far the only basis you cite for your narratives of jesus is your intuition and the brilliance of some sayings which are assigned to persons unknown. If you remove the christian narrative there appears to be nothing but some sayings from persons unknown.
mrg3105 Said:
1-Point out the “cliches” of which you accuse me.
2-this is one more example of YOU attempting to deflect attention from the issue under discussion to a red herring.
mrg3105 Said:
Your ludicrous unsupported psychobabbling assertion made without a single shred of evicdence or support but in an MO of sidestepping your pathetic ad hominem red herring.
bernard ross Said:
Your irrelevant, fallacious and childish reply:
mrg3105 Said:
Sorry to inform you that even a globally recognized expert in psychology would still be required by his peers to support his diagnoses with supporting facts. I also had some psychology courses in college and courses in basic logic. My logic courses allowed me to recognize your fallacious arguments which NEVER addressed the issue but always sought to deflect attention to Me. My basic courses in general psychology allowed me to recognize that your serial MO to “supporting” your assertions pointed to a psychological mechanism, likely of defense against the exposure of the emptiness of your unsupported assertions, regardless of the subject matter.
mrg3105 Said:
Perhaps that is why you immediately grasped for the word “trauma” in this ludicrous, unsupported psychobabble you just posted wrt ME! You might be surprised to find out that one does not acquire specialized psychological knowledge merely by discussing trauma with, or being in the proximity of, a “practicing trauma councilor”. your reply is irrelevant to supporting your assertion, as usual.
I expect that you were a D student in college in your psychology courses as you cannot even recognize your own MO.
mrg3105 Said:
Although irrelevant to explaining your lack pf providing support for your assertions, since you are interested in playing “show and tell”, I have more than a passing interest. for the past 45 years I have been an architect, project manager, contractor, Developer in multiple venues in the US, caribbean and central America. I have also as side qualifications been licensed as real estate broker, mortgage broker, and various management licenses also in various nations. The projects have been in real estate, business and tourism, etc. I have also been an owner and operator of various restaurants and clubs in my younger years. I still consult on an informal basis. In the real world of business and organizations you must learn how to provide evidence and support for the assertions you make, without that you will be unsuccessful. Also, if you seek leadership roles I suggest you abandon your repetitive MO as follows:
Perhaps you got your inspiration for your MO from your organizational studies?
The bottom line is that you continue to seek to deflect attention from your own shortcomings and inability to support your assertions by employing red herrings, ad hominem and irrelevance.
mrg3105 Said:
pure hot air: I listened attentively to your assertions and directed very specific questions and requests for support to you. I paid more attention and listening to your posts than you did. You are merely seeking a pulpit for the dissemination of your belief system without offering any support for your assertions. It is likely that you have operated in an environment which requires no critical thinking and applies no criteria for the evaluation of the credibility of your declarations.
mrg3105 Said:
I got nothing to date so I never expected anything “more”. Those in denial often feel “very secure in who” they are. Tuning out the “noise” is the mechanism used to support the denial. I suggest you discuss this with a real psychologist.

@ mar55:
My replies are usually quite succinct. However, for continuity & clarity I incorporate the series of remarks that I am responding to. It isn’t my own remarks that extend a post’s length. In fact, other posters make MUCH longer remarks than I.
Oh, I see. When somebody comments about me, it’s “some truth.” But if I make a comment ABOUT that ‘truth,’ then that’s an ‘insult.’ (Just getting the lay of the land here; very droll.)
As long as the attacks go on and on, the defenses will go on and on.
When the attacks stop, the defenses will stop.
Not unless. Not until.
THEN the ‘debate’ can begin. Won’t that be nice?
It doesn’t occur to you, does it, that answering attacks (like yours, for example) is a nuisance to ME — and that it takes the time that I would otherwise have to discuss Israel as well.
Not for everybody. You speak only for yourself in this regard. You’re quite welcome to ignore me; no problem whatsoever.
When have I said that? You’re clearly wrong again. Actually, I’m just about the only regular poster here who insists that I am NOT a ‘Christian.’
But then, I know the actual definition of the word, while the others use it only as an epithet.
I’m always happy to have my opinions disputed, but I won’t tolerate personal assaults for the mere fact of my HOLDING those views. As for measuring self-centeredness & self-absorption: compared with the primary elements of this lynch mob, I’m not even on the charts.
Bilge. I never insult because of mere disagreement. When I deliberately insult it’s usually a direct response to rudeness.
Is that what makes YOU such a hypocrite? — dropping acid in your youth?
Or do the residual effects of the acid merely render your present-day hypocrisy all-the-more transparent?

When did proctologist become “scatological language”?
@ yamit82:
Perhaps you should tell that to the proctologist when he comes to. . . plumb you. That way he can compare notes with me afterward. I may be able to give him some ‘pointers’ on why you’re so full of what he finds in there.

Why, whenever you are “pushed into a corner do you resort to scatological language ?
@ yamit82:
Okay, I found a place where I could watch your flick — which turns out to be a leftist -Enviro-wacko workup constituting as much a concoction as the one it purports to debunk. It never addresses the actual SAYINGS of Jesus, but merely claims that the Gospels are the work of the Flavians. Weak, thin, shallow.
There is simply no way that the sayings of Jesus were devised by Philo, or Josephus, or the Herods, or the Alexanders, or the Flavians. Read anything written by any of those folks, and then read the sayings of haNitzri; see for yourself.
Nor is the Jesus who took a cat-of-nine-tails to the money-changers in the Temple (an institution which by that time had become a tax-collecting agency for Rome) by any stretch of the imagination a ‘pacifist’ or otherwise ‘gentle’ person.
The one thing Atwill gets right is his grudging acknowledgement (altho only in passing) that the remarks of haNitzri incorporate “concepts that came directly from prior Hebraic literature.”
There’s more to be said, but I don’t have time to say it. Instead I’ll offer you this:
@ honeybee:
In that case, perhaps you should call a proctologist to visit him.
No doubt that when Huff’n’puff hears who’s coming to see him (and why), HE’ll be weak with anticipation.

@ bernard ross:
SEVERAL of my posts, however, have pointedly & explicitly asked you to define your use of the term, “christian sources” — and your SILENCE, by way of response, has been, thus far, nothing short of deafening, despite your continued use of the term.
How am I to reply to any comment of yours CONTAINING the expression as long as it remains undefined by the party which introduced it, notwithstanding multiple requests for a definition?
Nonsense. It comes to nothing of the kind
— as I have done nothing of the sort.
But by systematically refusing to define an important term you introduced — and which you CONTINUE to use here despite its undefined character here — you have effectively sealed yourself off from any possibility of real discourse in the matter.
Right after you define your term, “christian sources” — so the readers here (not merely the posters) can evaluate YOUR claims based on the sincerity of those CLAIMS’ ‘source.’
Coulda been called Roger Rabbit, for all I care; what’s in a name? “Montague”? “Capulet”? A collection of sounds.
— “A rose by any other name would smell as sweet.”
You blather over trivia & externalities, because substance scares the PANTS off of you — so much so that you dare not even read the friggin’ document for yourself.
The bigots have truly succeeded in making you one of them.
@ bernard ross:
You think YOU could, Yahnkel?
— despite the fact that you don’t EVEN know what’s in there (since you’ve never read it for YOURSELF)?
Didn’t say there was anything ‘pretty’ ABOUT them. You keep returning to that characterization of what I said and trying to lay it on me. Won’t stick, because it’s NOT what I said. Nor have you established them to be ‘myths,’ except insofar as it obviously comforts you to tell yourself they’re ‘myths’ — ‘myths’ which you’ve never actually read for yourself.
I said not that they were ‘pretty’ but that they were BRILLIANT. (They are.)
Well, they had to have been the work of one individual, and a 1st century Jewish individual, and even the most cursory of inspections leaves no doubt that it was a special individual who uttered them; hard to escape those conclusions.

You raised the point as to who were the ‘paupers’ in ‘ Sanhedrin 98a’?
My reply was directly responsive to your question wrt to ‘Sanhedrin98a’
Your response was not Tractate ‘Berakhot’ (blesssings) is a vast and complicated work I think not directly relate to my response to your question and response to it.
I’m not about to search and waste my time there to ans a question you can easily supply if you know it, and if you can show where my reply is incorrect and yours is correct.
Will the Messiah come riding on a cloud or a donkey is the dichotomy and the ans is a donkey. Symbolically what does the donkey represent and why? That’s the context to my response you have provided Nada.
Not impressed, not at all.
First I refer to you Kohelet – Ecclesiastes 3 read it carefully.
(Avot 1:18), “On three things does the world stand: justice, truth and peace.” And no less than four tractates (Berachot, Yevamot, Nazir and Keritut) conclude as follows:
“Rabbi Elazar said in the name of Rabbi Chanina, ‘Torah scholars increase peace throughout the world, for it says (Isaiah 54:13), ‘All you children shall be taught by the L-rd, and great shall be the peace of your children.'” (See: the end of Berachot). If peace is so important, why has Scripture recorded all the wars of righteous judges and kings. And in general, why is there a mitzvah to go to war, i.e., milchemet mitzvah, the compulsory war? The answer is provided by King Solomon in Eccles. 3:1,8,11: “To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under heaven… a time for war and a time for peace… He has made everything beautiful in its time.”
G-d “made everything beautiful – in its time.”
I think you need to get yourself a real Jewish teacher.
Part of my university education was in developmental psychology, and for work reasons I remain very interested in organisational psychology, particularly as it pertains to project managment, design and innovation.
A very good friend of mine is however a practicing trauma councillor, most recently working on the team which is dealing with the consequences of a well publicises event in Sydney. We talk about trauma among ‘Jews’ a lot because ironically she has had more contact with the ‘frim’ community than I have in the last few years, dealing with children of Holocaust survivors and child sexual abuse.
Bernard, sometimes you need to know when to suspend your disbelief, and just listen. Most people aren’t interested in asking questions or listening, and I’m looking for a few that are. You were asking questions, but its not a near-enough-is-close-enough proposition. Its both, or nothing.
You will get nothing more from me. I strongly suggest spending time with masekhet Makkot.
What you think of me doesn’t matter to me, and further taunts are not going to get a response. I am very secure in who I am, and what I’m trying to achieve. Everything else is ‘noise’. I have learned to tune it out.
I do admit though that some things you said were insightful, but they were not enough.
Have a good life.
Yamit82, Ted moderated my reply to you regarding ‘paupers’. The answer is in Berakhot, and from there you need to look in Mishnah. If you are not up for the challenge, just give it a rest with all the cut-and-paste of the verses. You only lower yourself to the level of other literalists.
If you should find the answer, you will find a way to contact me.

Ted created the chit chat column to avoid off topic and personal conversation. He also has a policy not to allow too much religious discussion as it is not a religious site. As you pretended to be concerned about expiration and being off topic I sought to satisfy your needs. Perhaps you merely were looking for an escape hatch for not explaining or supporting your declarations and edicts.
mrg3105 Said:
you would like to make the thread about me becuase you have NOTHING to support your assertions AND because you are likely a Teitlebaum true Torah satmar or NK.

mrg3105 Said:
Why would I restart a conversation with someone so dishonest that he blames his own faults on those asking him to support his own assertions after saying to us that there are no beliefs only “arguments and evidence”. YOU produced neither ONE argument nor ONE bit of evidence; neither, nada, bubkiss, zilch, zero, etc. Frankly, so far you appear to be an empty suit.

too old for what? My last application was as a teenager, every job after that came to me, I never looked for jobs. I was a consultant who never applied or marketed and I was a business man in various businesses employing more than 50 people at a time. I never needed to look for a job, it always came to me AND I never had an interest in a corporate environment. You sound like you just got out of college and are clueless about the world.
mrg3105 Said:
why not, is the truth of your assertions relative to my nationality? You appear to be grasping at any straw for an excuse to stall supporting your assertions or answering any relevant questions, searching for any irrelevant tangent or distraction as a way out of looking foolish. I lived for long periods in 3 different countries USA, UK(EU) and the Caribbean all of which allow me nationality if I choose to take the passports. Furthermore, there are 3 more nationalities which I can claim. You appear to have embarked on a journey of avoidance.
Look at all the posting you have wasted in trying to wiggle out of facing the truth … what can a person of your character show to anyone here. Your character is all we have to go on because you give no arguments or evidence.
What’s your next story going to be to wiggle out? Fool us and show us if you actually have anything to offer.
I think you are a “Teitelbaum”.
mrg3105 Said:
Could have fooled me. 🙂
Chit Chat is meant to give us an opportunity to discuss what ever we choose off topic to any of the current threads, allowing those who are interested only in those threads not to have to wade through tons of comments irrelevant to the topic at hand.
Bernard understands that, you apparently don’t.
I wonder why? 😛
Bernard, I don’t do ‘chit chat’
Your few replies are replete with cliches, which tells me something about you already.
I have already said that I am a Yehudi. Take it or leave it.
You said you are ‘Jewish’. Prove it.
No doubt you will ask me to prove I’m ‘Jewish’ also, and this is why I permited Ted to provide you with my email address. Once I’m assured that you are ‘Jewish’, we can restart this concersation again
It seems to me that you have been ‘here’ too long. Desensitisation due to the sort of ‘discussion’ I saw going on earlier has made you very cynical, which is a sort of a trauma, though I’m not espousing what you call ‘psychobubble’.
I posted a further comment, but Ted may have ‘moderated’ it as it had nothing to do with the thread. Ted of course has his own agenda and bias.
If you haven’t applied for a job since 1965, you may be too old in any case. And if you are an American, there is no point in starting the conversation.

mrg3105 Said:
to begin with it is neither. I asked you to explain and support your assertions so that this would not just be a scenario of you using a soapbox. When you actually GIVE an answer you would be more likely to be able to make that assessment. However, I do understand that you wish to deflect attention to me as a fig leaf for your inability to support or explain your assertions.
mrg3105 Said:
Yeh, that’s a transparent cop out to cover your impotency by suggesting that the other party is not up to your massive intellect. Of course, if you are about to use support from a scientology manual, or a book of black magic it might be problematic.
mrg3105 Said:
Your knowledge of me is irrelevant to the truth or factual nature of your assertions. Again, you take the path of red herrings to distract from your own impotency.
mrg3105 Said:
LOL, have I entered a Yeshiva or am I applying to you for a job? I haven’t made an application for a Job since 1965. Again you employ an obvious red herring to make the discussion about me rather than to supply explanations, arguments,support for the various assertions you made AND answers to questions I put to you. The facts or truth of what you have to say, if anything, are not dependent on me.
Are you a Naurei Karta, a Teitlebaum true Torah satmar or an anti zionist Karaite? As you have advanced certain positions it would help to understand you if you disclosed your perspective of Torah. You avoided the question.
mrg3105 Said:
Is it Top Secret, are you the vessel carrying ancient knowledge? if so WHY did you make the assertions in the first place? Was it simply to showcase your “talents”?

Its not about me: its about you explaining and supporting your assertions with “arguments and evidence” according to the standard which you yourself set at the beginning…did you forget already?
mrg3105 Said:
No assumptions I merely observe the facts demonstrated by your behavior: you provide no arguments, evidence or even explanations for the assertions you make here and then you try to deflect requests for them, AND questions, using red herrings to distract from your assertions to the other party. You declare edicts from a soapbox and give nothing to back it up and then point fingers at those who ask instead of YOURSELF. What conclusions would you draw from such behavior?

We should all be grateful for this front row seat to his serial repeating of a grand performance. It NEVER ceases to put me in stitches:

Actually you do just make that stuff up like a novel. Your criteria for accepting the myths of the NT appears to be based upon some pretty sayings which you also beleive a special Jewish individual uttered…HOwever, how do you jump to a “Jewish messiah”, born of a union between the G_D of the jews and a virgin, who died, was resurrected, and is coming back again to finish his undone job. All your posts give no support outside of christian sources for the existence and narrative of Jesus and his disciples.
It comes back to this:
You have decided to take your information from the culture associated with the serial, chronic, libeling, swindling, torture and slaughter of Jews for 2000 years and still ongoing today. There is nothing from those sources wrt Jews that would have a single shred of credibility for me. If a serial liar and murderer makes assertions, I find it suspect. However, you compare and give equal credibility to Jewish sources with the credility of serial chronic jew killers and libelers.
Furthermore, in the end, you ascribe the basis for your belief in jesus, his Jewish Messiahship, his resurrection, his virgin birth, his predicted 2nd coming to your INTUITION. Perhaps you can describe your epiphanies to the posters here so they can evaluate your claims based upon the quality of your source, I have no doubt they will be interested.
Therefore, it is Christian sources and your intuition that you rely on for your jesus narratives.
