There are babies starving to death right now. The 2 things are not connected. Many Jewish people attend the protests. Some of my Jewish friends do too.

So no.

Of course that is your opinion.

But at the end of the day the protests will all stop soon once Hamas is obliterated and the USA and Israel run the Gaza Strip.

That’s what the Palestinian people deserve some peace and an opportunity to prosper.

Even my Palestinian friends want nothing but Hamas to be finished.

Hopefully they don’t get swept away in the rain today it’s not supposed to be nice out

I meant is that actually in the bible?

It was in contemporary scripture that got edited out when they cobbled together the final canon at the Council of Rome - 'apocrypha' is the term I think

Here's the full story:

"After GHod created Adam, who was alone, He said, "It is not good for man to be alone." He then created a woman for Adam, from the earth, as He had created Adam himself, and called her Lilith. Adam and Lilith immediately began to fight. She said, "I will not lie below," and he said, "I will not lie beneath you, but only on top. For you are fit only to be in the bottom position, while I am to be the superior one." Lilith responded, "We are equal to each other inasmuch as we were both created from the earth." But they would not listen to one another. When Lilith saw this, she pronounced the Ineffable Name and flew away into the air."

There's another bit about how GHod later created Eve out of Adam's rib, instead of from clay again (and like him), to make sure she would be subservient to him.

Sounds like the police might have been assuming all mildly middle eastern looking people were baddies (reports at least two of the victims were from friendly fire)

Ridiculous: There was a highly pumped body builder with (what turned out to be fake) bomb strapped to his waste armed with knives trying to force his way into a synagogue and people trying to stop him.

Police actually don't use the same ammunition as the military do. Military rounds are designed to go through a target and create a large exit wound almost guaranteeing death and increasing the chance of collateral damage to those around the target. Police use different ammunition primarily designed to stop/drop a target and there is more chance of a police round embedding in the target and stopping.

However, they had to shoot and unfortunaly a bullet from a high powered rifle is still a bullet from a high powered rifle. The chances are still high of it passing through and causing unintended damage or injuries.

Equally, @Gutter Boy didn't just make it up either. There was a period in history when quite a lot of people believed it.

I think the Lilith story was part of jewish folklore from some of the Tulmud. The story has never been considered canon in Christianity and does not appear in Christian scripture nor is it taught in Christian classes.

Incidentally the story of genesis isn't as fundamentally disproven by science as some like to make out. Science has proven that time is not a constant factor. The only constant factor discovered by modern science i believe is the speed of light.

Time is a relative factor and while science has proven that the Earth wasn't created in 7 days, this does not disprove the story of genisis because the story is recounting a conversation between a primative human and a transdimensional being that has mastered the ability to manipulate space and time. In that context if such a conversation occurred the complete disparity between how we know creation occurred (the big bang) and how it is written down in the book, is rather easily explained.

There was likely also an Adam and then an Eve that was created from Adam if you again think it was possible that the transdimensional species was trying to explain to the primate human that life began with a single biological cell that then divided itself in two to create two separate organisms.

If you accept that there was a conversation between primative humans and our "creator" that happened to be a transdimensional species that caused the big bang and created our own bubble of spacetime ("the universe") the whole "if you're good you'll leave this Earth and live immortally in the heavens and if you're bad you'll burn in hell" this is easily translated into a reality of our scientific advancement and evolution. We have already developed the technology to burn us all in hell (nuclear weapons). We will eventually likely develop fusion and dark matter technology and we have identified genes we think are linked to the aging process.

So IF we do not destroy ourselves in a nuclear or fusion hell it is probably inevitable that we become immortal, leave the Earth and live forever in the heavens. We will become what our creator was.

He is right in some respect in that catholicism is the only growing Christian denomination in England and the Church of England appears to be in terminal decline. Catholicism is now the most widely practicised religion in England having overtaken the CoE this year for the first time since the reformation.
