mothershaveneedstoo They are almost completely different laws - the 7 Noahide laws and the 10 commandments. Check it out more thoroughly on the link I copied above. There are some groups who call themselves B'Nai Noach (Sons of Noah) who follow these laws. Here's a yahoo group...

mothershaveneedstoo The 10 Commandments were given to the Jews (and are included in the total 613) and we don't believe that non-Jews are responsible for following these laws. We hope & pray they will follow the 7 laws that were given to Noah. By doing so we consider them...

mothershaveneedstoo Before that Jewish man that you call a god was born, a Jewish sage named, Hillel, stated: "All of the Torah (Old Testament) can be put into one sentence: Don't do unto others what you wouldn't want to have done to yourself. All the rest is commentary." If you...

mothershaveneedstoo Yes, we are speaking the same thing: disciplines, rituals, etc. In Judaism, we say if you are following the commandments of G-d, you are doing the disciplines and rituals and so you are "religious". I am human and there all lots of disciplines that can be done...

I was just wondering, how many of you judge others on the basis of their religion. I try not to judge any one but sometimes I just do. What about you? Do you guys judge others too or are you guys angels(unlike me)?

mothershaveneedstoo I always let people know I am a Jew. That's my reaction to all the anti-Semitism thru the centuries. I do judge people for not knowing anything about Judaism and yet they still have religions that are based in it. I've somewhat decided that if the Xtians...

mothershaveneedstoo When I read the Torah (the Old Testament), I can't help believing that G-d wrote it. How could a man back in the time of slaves and oppression of women and the sacrifice of animals and people/especially children write some laws down about: *giving slaves...

We say everyone has some destiny. So if god has fixed our destiny then why we get punished for our actions and deeds.

mothershaveneedstoo I can't believe no one has yet mentioned the other safety factor of letting kids use cell phones: brain tumors. Don't let children use cell phones. Or at least teach them to use them in the speakerphone mode which is away from the head. The microwave radiation...

mothershaveneedstoo Thanks. I do get something out of ritual. The rituals can bring me closer to G-d. For example, I light candles on Friday night because it is one of the Highest forms of ritual for a Jewish woman. I feel that by doing that ritual, I usher Light into our home. I...

mothershaveneedstoo I am religious. I know that many people have used their religion to create more tragedy in the world. That's the fault of the person interpreting the religion. Most religions start with Love and Thou Shalt Not Murder. The first religion, which I believe was...

mothershaveneedstoo One of the ten commandments is to not use G-d's name in vain. That's why the Jews have never pronounced the tetrogrammaton (YHVH). Even in prayer, we use another word that translated means, "My Lord". If it were to be pronounced though, it would sound like...

mothershaveneedstoo All children have different time tables on this. My son didn't say one word until he was two. Once he figured out he could say "Mama", and he could actually call me and get me to do what he wanted, all the words came to him after that. He's still a bit shy...
