The One About Ben
#1
In reference to Ben Masada, I know I've been antagonizing him as much as anyone, but I think it's time we stopped replying to him. I've recently seen him posting on another Messianic board that I'm a member of. He's just out to pick a fight. I think he's also shown us quite well that he's not very learned, and must constantly resort to an argument of "I'm Jewish, and you must therefore listen to me" (logical fallacy: irrelevant appeal to authority).
The more I see, the more convinced I become that he is not interested in an actual discussion, just in causing trouble. Perhaps if we stop replying to his posts he'll go to make trouble elsewhere.

Shalom uvrachot,
David

Marvelous suggestion.

I realized that after his first few posts: this is the reason of my limited activity in the N/MJ forum since his registration.

I will later tell you my view on this matter, we might even start a thread on it. As for Ben...I did not find him as instructed in his faith as others I have met, I knew this immediately when in the personification of attributes thread or some other I can't remember he basically pretty much said he didn't believe in the afterlife (based on his vision on what the soul and spirit are).

Understandable....this viewpoint is not to be popular in any sense, but it's how I see things, so I share when it comes up (but I don't post everything I believe all at once and flood the forum with 2nd rate discussion) <!-- sTongue --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/poketoungeb.gif" alt="Tongue" title="Poke Tounge" /><!-- sTongue --> I wasn't trying to say that this perspective can describe all factions, but it's an interesting idea to at least consider. At least theoretically, if one believes to have truth, what margin outside of that truth is acceptable? If one believes Torah to be a desirable delight and the other scoffs at it, is it completely normal to consider each other of faith? Surely one is abandoning the message of Yeshua...
