One regular commenter here, bography, seems to get hung up with two particular questions. He consistently asks me if I believe in the historical veracity of the Chrstian Bible and what it claims Jesus said. The other challenge he comes up with is quoting sources, websites, people etc who claim to represent Judaism and challenging me with these quotes.
Since he asks these questions over and over and I give the same answer over and over, I will post generic responses to both on this page and every time he asks me in the future, I will simply refer him to this page and save myself the effort 🙂
1. I do not know if the Christian Bible has historical accuracy. I do not know if Jesus existed or not. I do not know if he said those things the books claim he said. If you believe it, then the question is one which you have to answer.
2. I am not necessarily represented by this source and can only be held accountable for what I personally have written on this blog, or what is written in the Jewish Bible.

I once had occasion to give a glance into the “New testament”,
when on a trip and my stay in a hotel. The drawer held one of
these gems. I wasn’t about to read it, but I did have curiosity
to see how it BEGINS. It starts out much like our Divrei Hayamim
starts out, by asserting a lineage, like first came X, who then gave
birth to Y, etc. Well, that very first sentence was already screwed
up because – and I don’t at all remember it – except that the
dynasty of David was poorly spec’d out, because – although he
comes from the tribe of Yehuda – they had another of Yaakov’s
sons in that lineage. So much for the “veracity” of their NEW book.
By the way, as NEW as it is, it’s already seen thousands of REVISIONS.
