Answering Manis Friedman

Why Jews don't believe in Christianity

1:22 a retired psychiatrist apostasised ... God punished him with damnation for having been a psychiatrist.

1:37 See, psychiatry is an Antichristian superstition.

2:33 Psychiatrists manipulate so much themselves, and they are so prone to "detect" manipulation.

3:08 OK, what if vulnerability needs to have an end?

Have you read Gone with the Wind? The main male character, Rhett Butler I think he's called, loves Scarlett O'Hara.

He truly is vulnerable. But she mistreats him emotionally, continuously, he has other duties, and finally he needs to tell her "frankly, my dear, I don't care" ...

There comes a time when a man needs to make a happy marriage, and when some of the women he loved must stop making him vulnerable.

Your analogy is from nonfiction. If it works for you, more power to you. It wouldn't for me. That relationship was all about manipulation, from both sides, lack of honesty, lack of respect, and so on.

@whoknew770 From fiction.

It is ages since I read Gone with the Wind.

I don't think Rhett Butler was what you say, symmetric to Scarlett O'Hara.

Chris Johnson

That is an excellent metaphor.

@Chris Johnson Thank you.

whoknew770

@Hans-Georg Lundahl yes corrected myself thanks

Hans-Georg Lundahl

@whoknew770 No problem.

Thank you again!

... er, in return!

3:21 Oh, yes, we do believe in God's vulnerability.

Check out the feast of the Sacred Heart.

4:11 Fair enough as a refutation of Arianism or JW - both make Jesus the first creature, and therefore an assistant God.

God is Trinity. Was Trinity before He created. Was Trinity when He created "man in our image" - Father, Son and Holy Ghost are the "we" of this sentence.

4:36 God did not more need you than that He could have annihilated you and made Moses patriarch of another people, remember?

Or rather, Israel. Because the true Israel is the Catholic Church, you Jews are a fake Israel.

Though, according to Romans 11, this is not eternally so. Read Hosea.
