Thomas,
I thank you for your answers and taking the time to address my questions and everyone else's. I have to admit you are the only one who does answer the "alleged" misconceptions without turning the page to a different subject. So you are trying to dissolve any misunderstandings, which is what MT is doing from a Judaism standpoint. To me, the difference I see is this; MT specifically uses Hebrew biblical quotes and verses to substantiate it's claims whereas most of your backup is based on "possible solutions" or "suggested resolutions". Now I'm not trying to be mean and I do respect your opinion, but I just wanted to show you the contrast. So thanks again for your replies, they are helpful in trying to understand what might or might not have taken place. I must say and you most likely know this already, they aren't convincing enough for me to believe them as the word of G-d. What strikes me as strange, and I know not everyone has the same reasoning, is how many pastors say the discrepancies is what makes it more believable.
Shalom!
