Keeping most out would not be difficult as we have water surrounding us. Mexico is the only country that can have their population walk across the border. That can be fixed by doing several things... actually enforcing the laws of our country and punish those who hire illegals...deploy the Guard on...

If it's not too personal, how did you do with your paper? Did the professor like it or had comments about it?

I was just wondering since secondary education seems to really stress multi-culturalism even more these days.

Who knows? Im sure Christ looked like the people around him, but I find it impossible that he had a certain race's genetics. There was no earthly being that helped with his creation. He was simply placed in a womb. But wouldn't he still be half of what his mother was? Maybe, maybe not. It depends o...

In all other cases, yes... You are racially Jewish if your mom is Jewish because she gave you her 23 chromosomes and you have her blood in her. That is not the case with Jesus' birth. So here's a question for you Nighthawk...... As a mortal being, whose DNA did Jesus have? If someone could have per...

Found this in Wikipedia... Ideally being a Jewish is a combination of at least three things: maternal lineage, following the law, and maintaining the lifestyle. Jewish identity What makes a person Jewish? According to Jewish law, someone is considered to be a Jew if he or she was born of a Jewish mo...

Yes, Paul was a Jew by blood .....but a Christian by faith... whats your point? Pauls writings are NOT for a jewish audience. THey are for a Christian audience. The book of Hebrews is called Hebrews for a reason because the audience it was intended for was Jewish. It was written specifically to pro...

But... I am confused at what point you are trying to establish. That Jews were/are God's chosen people? They were and a covenant was made with them in the Old Testament. However, they broke that covenant and God makes a new covenant through Christ in Hebrews. You stated that the Jews the richest pe...

Again.... you're not reading what I write. It was AFTER the Jews rejection of Christ that a new covenant was made. Hebrews is in the new testament. Why trace it through Joseph? I dont know... it would be quite pointless, considering Mary was a virgin. He had nothing to do with the conception. Mary,...

You didn't answer my questions. But I did Why would God send the Messiah via a Jewish girl's womb? Why not another race instead? I just answered this. Jesus was sent to the Jews... why not send him via a jewish girl? Why would God send the Messiah to the Jews first, knowing they would reject him???...

Read again in Hewbrews when it talks about a new covenant through Christ. Are you saying Jesus wasn't Jewish?? Jesus kept all of the Jewish festivals and laws. He was crucified with a sign stating he was "King of the Jews". The Bible states that he came to preach to the Jews first, the Ge...

Jesus was Jewish. Jesus was religously a jew... who (obviously) is the cornerstone of Christianity due to the Jews rejection of him. He however, is NOT racially a jew. He died because the Jews refused to believe the was the Messiah. He was observant of the Torah and its commandments. Jesus's mother...
