dear designs...
you are constantly saying, "judaism doesn't teach that". Rabbinc judaism is interpretation of the torah and there are different versions of interpretation. That's why there are various sects of judaism from ultra orthodox to liberal. Besides that, if you don't believe in God, it is hypocrisy to argue for what you believe the right interpretaion of His word is.
dear Terry...
you've said what amounts to: no one can know anything about anything from the bible because it's been tampered with and, "Evidence is a touchy subject when it comes to scripture citation, to say the least."...
you have cited the lost sheep parable as a portrait of the character of Jesus (matthew 18:11-12) more than once in your effort to prove that the WTBTS are wrong in their disfellowshipping policy. Don't you think that you owe the tax man something?
as far as I can tell you're as thick as thieves.

Do you know the word?
THE word is ὑποκρίτης (hypokritēs) from which we get HYPOCRISY.
rabbinic judaism, which (as an atheist) you cite as the absolute final authority, is simply a version of interpretation.

maybe you recognize this account...
once upon a time there was a jewish lady (representing the jews) AND a gentile lady (representing the church). The jewish lady's sons died and she said the Almighty had afflicted her. Then one day the gentile lady (representing the church) had a son (a kinsman Redeemer). The gentile lady gave the son into the arms of the jewish lady (representing the jews). Then the jewish ladies in bethlehem said, "here is a son BORN TO the jewish lady" (representing the jews).

"If an existentialist falls out of the forest, does anyone give a shit? "..
the existentialist answer is: we are really all part of the bigger shit

dear kaik...
you said," michelle, there is also no credibility in NT. Christianity and Judaism does not believe in the same G-d. This is only your illusion"...
the Holy Spirit gives both the OT and the NT credibility not Judaism or Christianity both of these religions are part of the outworking of God's plan.

would it be correct to say that there is no proof that isaiah was getting messages from God, transmitting them accurately or that he even existed, there is no collaborating contemporaneous witness to his person. You believe he existed and that he transmitted God's message based on faith. (Even as an atheist!!)
the NT gospels are all collaborating the events leading up to the crucifixion of Jesus and witnesses collaborate each other.
if christians believe isaiah was a prophet of God and he accurately transmitted God's message then why on earth WOULDN'T we believe the gospel testimony?
think about this for a few minutes...from what quarter is OT credibility coming from? Is it islam(who's "prophet" found need to do a re-write to accommodate his new religion) or is it from any other major religion? Who besides the jewish people believes isaiah and supports use of the OT without "evidence" for its veracity? It is christians...it is christians BECAUSE we have a shared faith in the same God. If that wasn't the case then what was the real motivation for gentiles to believe in sin and atonement OR a Messiah. God called us to believe in Him too despite animosity from jewish leaders and religious persecution on the part of roman authorities.
You can think and say whatever you want about what happened back then but it doesn't jive with the "evidence" or reality of Jesus' church.

you completely avoided my question.
the OT says ______ in isaiah 53:7-10...On what basis do you prove to yourself that it is accurate transmission from God? OR that God even had a message?

Yeah...I meant the stuff you defend as meaning this or that but certainly NOT ________. or put another way, how do you prove to yourself that the law or what isaiah says is sufficiently accurate for you to argue for an interpretation one way or the other

you said, " Try this- Nothing about the Trial of Jesus is accurate, nothing about the accusations in the Gospels about the Jews is accurate."...
Umm...how do you prove to yourself that anything in the OT is accurate?
