Please stop multiposting to net.religion.* Post to one group at a time unless the topic is truly relevant to all the groups AND if it obeys the rules of the group. I.e. in the case of net.religion.[christian|jewish] the article shouldn't be intended to insult or ridicule anyone for their practice of that religion. If you cannot abide by the concensus rules of the net, then at least abide by the rules of common politeness. In response to your (very) little bit of humor, Christianity was started by PRACTICING JEWS who REMAINED practicing Jews throughout their lives. Your claim that they were apostate is offensive and untrue. I am posting this to the three groups of your original posting because your slander must not be allowed to go unchallenged. Hutch
