<p>Pizzagirl notes,“Yeah, you can find the same crap in the religious texts of Judaism, and passages that are interpreted quite unfavorably to how Jews should engage with gentiles.”</p>
<p>Response: OH? Pizzagirl, I think you are relying on hearsay or rumors.
Where exactly in the Torah does it say kill anyone that isn’t Jewish today and kill anyone that doesn’t convert or kill anyone who stops being Jewish? In fact, the only related concept that occurs to me is that Jews make it hard to convert to Judism,which is rather idiotic in my opinion. </p>
<p>Lergnom, Thanks for your scholarly post. I didn’t understand much of the differerences that you notes especially among Shia and Sunni. That was very illuminating. I bet you would be a great lecturer on comparative religion.</p>
