CountFosco posted:I care about Jewish critiques of Christian theology and take them seriously and give them due respect. My point is not that it inaccurately summarizes Judaism, my point is that the soul is something of value far greater than any particular body part. I mean, do you disagree with this? dude i'm buddhist we don't believe in souls also also you're not talking critiques seriously if you constantly debate what they should believe! if you want to have a discussion with someone who's not your religion you can't constantly be telling them they're wrong when they've telling you WHAT they believe! that's a debate, not a discussion, and all it does is reinforce your own worldview while completely dismissing what the other person is saying. if you want to understand judaism you can't constantly critique it on the basis of christian theology, and it's only when you understand judaism that you can begin the process of critique, which might never take place. but right now all you're doing is essentially accusing jews of not following christian principles, which yeah duh. it's a bad discussion to be involved in AND read
