"I suggest the next time you quote Torah you have backed it up by reading it in the original language."

If one is to share their faith, then it helps to translate it into the languages that people understand. I have the utmost respect for the Hebrew-Aramaic scriptures as it gives me insight into Jehovah's wisdom. I'm glad I'm able to read it in a language I can understand and can share with others. We're in over 232 lands and print bibles and literature in hundreds of language to help reach the hearts of people. Expecting everyone we preach to to learn an archaic language would be pretty tough on them

"That means not to EAT blood or fat."

If your doctor told you to quit drinking alcohol, he wouldn't be very happy with you if you injected it into your veins would he? Blood was symbolic to Jehovah so WHY he told us to abstain from it is the key.

"The rest of your xtian sources are invalid to the argument as they are fictional polytheistic accounts."

This makes a discussion pointless.

"The next time they or anyone else knocks at my door, particularly on Shabbos to prostitutute their deities, they will be handed a condom, a safe sex guide to reduce their numbers and the web link to purchase Ancient Hebrew and Aramaic for Dummies."

Thank you, you've made your feelings extremely clear and would be a lot more amusing to me than being screamed at.

Or are you invoking Poe's Law at me and having a funny? :)
