I'll give one example.
There's no other example of a group writing its own history and depicting its people as so flawed as the Hebrew Bible.
in deuteronomy is that if a man goes a more uh a more or less paraphrasing the law a man goes out to battle and he wants a woman now we know how ubiquitous rape in times of warfare is right i mean a million german women they say
And she mourns her parents for 30 days.
She mourns her family for 30 days.
to be uh made pretty she is to wear the the sackcloth of of people who are mourning and then he can't touch her for 30 days then if he still wants her after 30 days of her crying
He then can only have her sexually if he marries her.
Glenn, God bless you for asking that question.
I intend to write a major piece on that issue.
Jesus was a Jew, and as I tell my Christian friends, Jesus never read the New Testament.
Jesus was a Jew.
The gospel writers were Jews.
So there's no Christian without Judeo.
And the Judeo would not be known in the world without the Christian.
The reason people know about the Ten Commandments all over the world is because Christians publicized it.
We need each other tremendously, and I believe there's a divine role for both.
I just want to say, if somebody wants to drop the Judeo, they are untrustworthy as a theological thinker.
You're asking the $64,000 question.
You have to emphasize that God wants you to be good.
God demands, first and foremost, that we be good.
