Last Pope was terrific. New Pope? The return to Latin liturgy has some implications, as does recent reiteration that only Catholics are saved. We of course do not believe that

I agree with smadewell. I was about to leave a similar comment to his, but then I thought twice. Sometimes the political & geopolitical factors also have to be addressed, given the nature of many Evangelicals. Still, it's disturbing to witness a fusion of church & state.Follow up: What are your relations with the Catholics?

I don['t know what the Christian belief is exactly but for Jews we end every prayer service with Zacheriah quoted in the ALENU-ON THAT DAy ALL THE WORLD WILL ACKOWLEDGE ADONAI AS GOD

Many Jews complain about harrassment from Christians who continually try and sell Jesus to them. There is a sea of diference being exp,laining a religion on a video where people can volunarily tune in if they want, and being harassed n the work place about it. And we find it particulary annoying since it often is accompanied by "if you don't you are going to hell,"

Q: The video says that Jews and Christians both believe at the end of time, "all people" will come to see the truth in their religion/faith.That does not match the teachings of the New Testament in the Christian Bible, and I'm not sure it matches the Old Testament which comes from Jewish scripture."All people" --- ???

Where is free will? I (generic I) think I'm right. You think you're right. We tell/educate about our faith - as in these videos. Why is that offensive? To me, if someone tells a Christian (or other) they do not want to hear about that faith, and the person continues - it is hounding and offensive. Without the hounding?

Very unhappy with their converting dead jews to Mormonism without their permission. But, like any non-jews, if they follow the basic rules of civilization, they are saved.

Just curious, how are your relations with Mormon's (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints)?

I'm all for building bridges for peace & dialogue. How? Through politics? Why not just focus on keeping it "balanced & historical," while improving the world through acts of loving-kindness & charity - without a political agenda & without an agenda to convert people away from their chosen faith. There's enough dividing the people of this world without throwing politics & nationalism into the mix, no? Let's focus on subjugating our individual & collective Evil Impulse, says I. Just a thought.
