Like everybody here I LOVE the Jews, the Torah, Israel and all the right stuff. But, I'm glad I wasn't on that plane.

Sorry, zeek you're right. I too often look at you and our friend awareness as a tag team of sorts. I know better now. Shame on me. Amen to not being on that plane. When I read that story I thought about the former (I think, I hope) Local Church weird, super bizarre group chant of "Ooooooh Looooooord Jeeeeeesus" in such situations (as the praying-out-loud Jewish men). I guess we meant well like the Jewish men, but I don't believe God was even the slightest involved in either activity.

I never really entered full on into the debate between Dancing and all those other folks. Do you think she's right with her Jesus + Law hypothesis? I thought that, for the Christian, Jesus replaced the Law as the sole mediator with God. No? Well, see-- that's why I come here to LCD---to learn.

Opps, wrong thread for this one. But in short, our friend Dancing, IF she is pushing "Jesus + Law" I would personally, strongly disagree with this kind of thinking. I personally don't agree with much of the whole "Messianic Judaism" movement. The reasons for me are much more theological than cultural, if you know what I mean. Again, probably a subject for a different thread. I would say that she is still, for the most part, if she colors between the lines, within the general theme of this forum. And that's all I gotta say about that.
