The last clause is just plain false and would have contradicted the message of the NT as well as Jeremiah 31

Thomas, I am truly overjoyed that you read my little attempts. I think you actually quoted them verbatim; that makes you better than the various writers of the Gospels, since they just couldn't seem to get their act together.I post on here to make people think. I am neither a Jew nor a Xian, but I despise illogic and inconsistancy. What is weird is, that I wrote them, off the top of my head, as examples of what Uri what talking about. Paul explicitly states, after he is rebuked by the jews, that he will thereafter go only to gentiles. You are the xian, so you may look it up. It is there. Paul apparently went from hating Xians, to hating Jews. What a psychotic! Jesus not only breaks most of the ten commandments, he fails in every one of his predictions. Some of them even defy logic, as in, how many times the @#%$ "crew" when Peter betrayed him.

This would make Jesus a liar. Anyone who has taken over a city or country has not been a follower of Jesus. They might have been a believer in Jesus in a certain way, but they certainly were not following Jesus' instructions

Thank you. You are describing the majority of Xians, throughout their 17 century bloody history. In the U.S., often referred to as a Christian Nation, Mr. Bush, and the Genocide he is perpetrating against the children of Ishmael overseas, is a perfect example. They may not be Jews, but they are certainly a brother people, and our government is slaughtering them, taking sides in a civil war, after promising "not another Viet Nam".
