I suspect that this thread does not really fit in this forum.
Are you Jewish?

Ha! Ha ha! Wow, I bet you have no idea how funny that question is! Let me explain.

With those three words, you have (in your mind) instantly discredited Toto. If he is Jewish, anything he says might be a lie to make his deceitful race look good. If he isn't, then he's a Jewish sympathizer, and so anything he says might be a lie to make his deceitful masters look better.

If that WASN'T your intention, please explain what legitimate reason you might need to know if he's Jewish or not, and why that matters in the least to questioning the validity of one of your sources.

The real reason for this post, though, is I just want to point out that since most people here consider all religious texts to be written by people only and partially transmitted orally a long time ago, and part of the evidence of this is that they are all riddled with contradictions, debating whether or not the Torah, Bible, and Koran is corrupted is mostly an intellectual exercise.

Bigmo - I am not Jewish, either by religion or ancestry. I am concerned with keeping the discussion on this board at a reasonable level, and I find anti-Semitic rants to be somewhat lacking in that regard -- usually too stupid to be worth refuting.

The connection I am trying to establish is between the Talmud and the Koranic condemnation. What on Earth Hoffman has to do with all this. he is quoting from the Talmud, which it seems perhaps some Jews wish not to disclose. However the Koran disclosed it, amd my intention is to connect the verses of the Koran with the Talmud.

This is not about PR. Some of you perhaps were told things and now are seeing the buibble burst. But that ain't my fault. Its clear the Koran is talking about the Talmud and its clear Hoffman had it right. After all the Koran existed 1,400 years before Hoffman and said the very same thing about the Talmud. Too much for a coincidence.
