  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

But there is a similar concept in the Bible: It is God's creation of a Jewish Nation......Israel.
Ruled over by the Priests.
Yes.
That fizzled (Book of Judges) and the people clamored for a King; God acquiesced and Saul was chosen.

On that subject, how do they identify the 12 tribes by DNA?
They don't.
Go back and read the book of Numbers....maybe then you can grasp how they identify themselves......

Maybe because they cannot. All of those identifiers were lost already.

The the Orthodox Jews, maybe the closest 'relatives' of ancient Judiasm, know what tribe they belong to. Even the Jews who are not Orthodox can identify their tribe by last names. Now those that married gentiles.....they probably got problems.....which is probably why God directed them to refrain from intermarriage with other nations.....among other reasons.......
