I don't say this lightly. I am so frustrated, that this may be my last post. This will be a mixture of personal rant and blog post. I haven't posted in a while. I struggle to come up with something worth posting about. My focus has been on other matters. I realized that after 2 1/2 years of this blog, I am nowhere near where I thought I would be. I don't make a cent (or agorot) on this. I don't have many followers or subscribers. What followers I do have are an equal mix of Christians, Jews, and anti-Semites. I can't reach the people I really want to reach with my message because I don't speak Hebrew. But in the end, it doesn't seem to matter. Because whatever I do, the response from Jews is always the same. Who do you think you are? You think you know more than the Rabbis? The Sages? The Rambam? Are you a posek?

Religious Freedom and Western Democracy Are Not Part Of Torah
"There shall be no strange god within you, you shall not worship any strange god."(Psalm 81:10)
"within you" means both within the whole Jewish community and the whole Land that God gave to them. In the Book of Kings, some kings tore the high places of idolatry down, some didn't. The kings who were righteous were given 'grace' even though they did not tear them down. (Yes, for all you Christians out there reading this, the God of the Old Testament gives Grace.) But it ultimately led to their destruction.
A Jewish Perspective Of Christians And Who Was/Is The Real Jesus?
There is something strange going on within Christianity. This site is about Judaism and I don't want to make it into all about debunking Christianity because this is not really my area of expertise. But this does relate to Christian perception of Judaism and Jewish perception of Christianity so I feel it's worthy to discuss here. Plus I've learned new information that I'd like to share. I have Christian followers and I may lose them after this, but I can't let that dictate what I post.
