comment Why G-d had to confuse people's languages in the land of Shinar?
The people in Shinar intended to build the Tower of Babel to reach God. Right? Correct me if i am wrong. Anf if i am right the project would have been a never-ending project. So was the inetion good or bad?

comment Why is Judaism not Racism?
There does exist strong differences and oppsition within among Jewish sects. There are so many Jews living in a Muslim Orthodox country like Yemen whos oppose the State of Israel as they feel that they are violating the laws of the Torah from Day 1.

comment Sarah's treatment of Hagar and Ishmael
So modern Judaism is not purely based on Torah! It is rathe based on commentaries and other texts written by Rabbis that comprise their own opinions. We have no authenticity of this incident whether it is a factual incident or not.

comment Is there any difference between Jewish G-d and Muslim G-d?
@avi It is not upon the dicretion of any Muslim to accept or reject Torah (the current text) as a whole. The Quran explicitly states that the Torah (revealed to Moses(may peace and blessings be upon him)) was delibrately altered by Rabbis to earn worldly gains. Please check this verse here: corpus.quran.com/translation.jsp?chapter=3&verse=78

comment Is there any difference between Jewish G-d and Muslim G-d?
@avi Islam does not claim that Torah is corrupted when it was revealed by Allah on Moses(peace and blessengs be upon him)! Instead it says that later on it was corrupted by the Rabbis who misled the children of Israel. On the other hand in Cristianity, Saint Paul clearly declared that law in The Old Testament is not not needed to be followed.

comment Heretics in the bathroom
@Isaac Moses But honestly, i really cannot convince myself imagianing an immortal, almighty entity (Allah or Hashem) wrestling with a mortal, weak entity (Jabob or Yaakov) (may peace and blessings be upon him). I would rather like to post a seprate question to dicuss this or like to continue from here: judaism.stackexchange.com/questions/14461/…

comment Heretics in the bathroom
@Adam Mosheh I see.Some people do have a habit of reading newspaper, comics or novels in the restroom as it eases their constipation or makes them comfortable to release their faeces. Maybe the same case is with Rabbi Avigdor Miller! No doubt, that the Quran and indeed a of portion of the New Testament does contain spiritual content that does not contradict Judaism, thus easing the Rabbi to rid of his faeces!

comment Heretics in the bathroom
@Adam Mosheh Well there is heresy within the sects of Judaism then what you would say aout that! Orthodox Judaism considers Reform and Reconstructionist Judaism to be heretical movements, and regards most of Conservative Judaism as heretical.

comment Heretics in the bathroom
Remember that the God is the same one and only one, unique, supreme and omnipotent entity that both Islam and Judaism advocates to worship. But the attributes that Judaism refers to is quite vauge and purely based upon commentaries. Here is one difference: In Islam, Quran is the primary source of knowledge. Now accroding to the Torah, God is claimed have wrestled with Jacob. Please read Genesis 32:28-29 and 35:10. Now there are several interpretations and commentaries of the text given here. And infact entire Judaism is based on what the commentaries and interpretations of the Rabbis.

comment How are sorcery or witchcraft viewed in Judaism and Jewish Mysticism?
@HodofHod Your answer is indeed based on truth! I being a Muslim cannot tolerate any of the Prophets (may peace and blessing be upon them) to be falsely accused of such evils. This is exactly what Islam teaches and stresses upon as well.

comment How are sorcery or witchcraft viewed in Judaism and Jewish Mysticism?
@HodofHod This is one reason i always stress upon reading, learning and studying the present scriptures in thier own pure and original languages. Infact, we as human beings are not powerrless wo translate or tranliterate God's word.

comment How are sorcery or witchcraft viewed in Judaism and Jewish Mysticism?
@HodofHod This is one good reason that i have always sought to read, learn and research on languages of the scriptures. I love Hebrew as much as i love Arabic! What David Livingston said in his book is merely his own understanding which is obviously false.
