Reply With QuoteGee damo, it says in there that Kabbalah was an ancient form of jewish mysticism. And you were saying it was just a bunch of "weird stuff" with no relationship to judaism. I guess that makes you wrong, again.Originally Posted by Damocles

Asshat Going on about Jews and Sorcerers
I had posted an interesting story about the Sistine Chapel and the hidden insults to the Pope which Michelangelo placed in the frescoes... But the thread changed over to the fear of Asshat that magicmen who learn a form of "mysticism and sorcery" from ancient Israel, and of Jews overcame that subject. I have moved that to a new thread and gave up trying to keep this one on topic.
I'll instead entertain myself by making fun of the man who fears Madonna and thinks that Israel is the only group who can't have what he wants.
Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.

Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.

I'm thinking you are pretending that is what I said. I said you don't have to be a Jew to practice it. It isn't "Jewish" in religion, it is an ethnic oriented mysticism. Again, I would call it "Hebrew" rather than "Jewish" in order to separate between the religion and the ethnicity.

I'm here all week folks!
Mostly what I said about Kabbalism is that it is already past its peak in popularity and only people past their own prime, like Madonna, think it's still cool...
Oh, and dorks who fear it because they are "sorcerers"...

I don't fear it, I disdain it because it contains elements of ethnic supremacism and dehumanization of "other". You know, "god's chosen" and all that mumbo jumbo.

How do you feel about people who disdain it because it contains elements of ethnic supremacism?

I think they take it too seriously. I couldn't care less if it contains elements of uberstank. It's silly to think they can really do magic.

Yes. IT is silly to think that. I merely disdain it because it contains elements of ethnic supremacism, and that's not magic. Are you aware that ethnic supremacism is not "magic"?

Of course, but 12 guys sitting in a room talking about how "superior" they are because they are "jewish sorcerers" doesn't concern me in any way other than to make fun of people who take it seriously.

How about an entire nation premised on ethic separatism/supremacism and another nation foolishly supporting these zionist misadventures? Does that concern you?

The entire nation you speak of are not all kabbalists. Which is what we are talking about right now.
You personally have no issue with it, as you have stated repeatedly that there is no issue you have with any race wanting to nationalize. Why would this one scare you so much?
Of course, ignoring all the other ethnicities who live and vote in Israel is standard fare for those who want to make them seem as evil as possible.
