Actually, it's wikipedia.

I laughed out loud about the year. You must have got that from a random sign-up on some site somewhere. I make it a rule not to volunteer personal information of a specific kind, and fill all forms with garbage that I am required to complete.

You have my IQ correct however.

Wrong again. Its a bastardization of the character 'Pokaroo' from a Canadian kids TV show, only it also indicates I am a Nazarite. (Read Numbers 6).

Hence, "Nazaroo". I think its hilarious, but unless you're a Canadian, you aren't likely to get it.
Glad you enjoyed the joke.

Not mine, though.

[EDITED TO ADD]

Let's get this straight: You clai to be a Nazarite according to Numbers 6?

You don't claim to be one. You either follow the vow or you don't. Many orthodox and Hasidim take such vows regularly. I am hardly unique.

Try googling Nazarite.

Actually, I noted a couple of questions that had wrong answers on the IQ test. Seems I must have fooled them again. (I didn't bother to correct the test, I just guessed the answer I knew they wanted to hear.)

From the Rabbi:
Quote:
If a person vows to become a Nazarite, he or she would indeed be obligated in all the commandments pertaining to a Nazarite. For example, a Nazarite may not drink wine or eat any grape products, cut his hair, or come in contact with a dead body.

The Nazarite vow terminates by bringing offerings to the Temple. Since today there is no Temple, a Nazarite would remain a Nazarite forever. Rabbi Dovid Cohen, zatzal (father of the current Chief Rabbi of Haifa) took a Nazarite vow, and hence remained one his whole life. He was exceptional in this regard, and became known as the 'The Nazir.'

However, Rabbi Cohen was a renowned tzaddik - a very righteous person - in all areas of Jewish conduct, and he was a great Torah scholar. A person shouldn't even consider becoming a Nazarite unless he is of similar ilk. Taking a Nazarite vow smacks of haughtiness. Furthermore, it's virtually impossible to avoid all the transgressions involved. I've never heard of anybody in this generation becoming a Nazarite.

Have fun.

By the way, I'd still like some documentation on at least a few of your outlandish claims:

1) That the Polish people are largely Jewish.

2) That large numbers of German Jews became Jehovah's Witnesses.

3) The large numbers of Jews, today, are becoming Jehovah's Witnesses.

4) The the Jehovah's Witnesses world headquarters is dominated by Jews.

Can't wait to hear from you.

Was one of the questions that Poland is populated with mostly Jews or that Jehovah's witnesses are run by Jews? Because, I don't think you answers were as correct as you think.

Can we get this straight: "Nazarite" is an invention of the christian tradition, which confuses the LXX of the Hebrew term NAZYR, one who has made a religious vow, with the supposed home of Jesus at Nazareth. The form "Nazirite" is what should be used to indicate the Jew who has made the vow (see the Wiki entry). "Nazarite" is an ill-formed reference to Jesus. Mark talks of nazarhnos and Matt nazwraios, whatever they mean. It is from the conflation of these two that we derive "Nazarite".

I don't know anything about the name "Nazaroo", other than the fact that it doesn't have any direct connection with the Hebrew NAZYR. I'm happy to treat Nazaroo as a name, which means little in itself, but has received connotations which make it meaningful to its user.

I don't know anything about the name "Nazaroo",
"Sanhedrin" is an invention of the Christian tradition...its an ill formed reference to the "Sans", a subsect of the Essenes, and the "Hedrews".

Luke talks of the sanhedrews, meaning all manufacturers of dairy products,
while Mark has "Hedaroos", whatever that means. It is from a conflation of these two that we derive "Nazaroo".

Deep, Johnny, Deep.

But you've given me the basic idea of the crap content.

I asked Nazaroo this in post #7 and got no response, so I'll ask again:
What exactly would ever make you think that Stalin, Iosef Vissarionovich Djugashvili, was a Jew, other than through folk etymology?

Nazaroo, boychick, still waiting for a response to your claims:

1) That the Polish people are largely Jewish.

2) That large numbers of German Jews became Jehovah's Witnesses.

3) The large numbers of Jews, today, are becoming Jehovah's Witnesses.

4) The Jehovah's Witnesses world headquarters is dominated by Jews.

5) Stalin was a Jew.
