		<description>The foundation of Christian theology is expressed in the early ecumenical creeds which contain claims predominantly accepted by followers of the Christian faith. These professions state that Jesus suffered, died, was buried, and was subsequently resurrected from the dead in order to grant eternal life to those who believe in him and trust him for the remission of their sins.^

		<description>Bibis jewish law
Shabbath 116a. Jews must destroy the books of the Christians, i.e. the New Testament.
 
Dr. Israel Shahak of Hebrew University reports that the Israelis burned hundreds of New Testament Bibles in occupied Palestine on March 23, 1980 (cf. Jewish History, Jewish Religion, p. 21).</description>

		<description>You know, MC, there are plenty of churches in many tolerant places that do celebrate Hannukah, and they host seders and engage in other ecumenical celebrations with Jews who don&#039;t feel they&#039;re contaminated by it.

In Israel, there is growing intolerance of Christianity, but instead of acknowledging this problem, you drag out that tired old antisemitism bat to beat anyone who mentions the fact.</description>

		<description>This is not “anti-Christian” anymore than a Church not throwing a party for Hannukah. SHOULD HAVE THE FOLLOWING WORDS ADDED: &quot;is anti-Jewish&quot;....

PS, the overwhelming majority of Jewish Israelis couldn&#039;t give a cr*p whether or not a restaurant has a kosher certificate and would probably jump on the chance to celebrate secular New Years, as most Israelis are always looking for a chance to party (the more the merrier). Anyway, I am done beating a dead horse.</description>

		<description>Aristeides, first of all I am not an &quot;MC&quot;. I personally prefer classic 80s rock and Israeli music over rap. The name is Mitch (if Mitchell is too long for you).

Second of all, I am glad to see that at least you backtracked from your lie, &quot;that restaurants that celebrate New Years in Israel are closed down&quot;. Congratulations on at least giving up that lie.

Third of all, in order for a restaurant to be &quot;kosher&quot; (i.e. have the proper certificate), they have to pass a list of criteria. One of them is that they don&#039;t publicly celebrate non-Jewish holiday, whether Christmas, secular New Years, Muslim holidays, Buddhist holidays, Scientologist holidays, etc. This is not &quot;anti-Christian&quot; anymore than a Church not throwing a party for Hannukah. And, yes, a restaurant in New York or Paris or Montreal or anywhere else in the world that celebrates the secular New Year or any other non-Jewish holiday would not get a kosher certificate. This is not an &quot;Israeli&quot; thing. I think I have explained this as much as possible (i.e. short of using a power point diagram with the cute arrows). Some people are just to thick to get through to or they have an agenda.</description>

		<description>You should be more careful with what you reading. Certain texts will turn your brain into a gray goo.

&quot;George Rishmawi of the Palestinian Center for Rapprochement has said that &quot;Christians are part of the Palestinian social fabric … and of Islamic culture.&quot;

Mwahahahahahaha.</description>

		<description>Are you just thick, MC?  Or deliberately playing stupid and offensive?  Nothing you say has any bearing on the situation.

These are kosher restaurants with kashrut certificates.  The rabbinate is threatening to revoke the certificates because the kashrut inspector won&#039;t go into the place on New Year&#039;s because he might be contaminated with Christian cooties, even if all the celebrants are observant Jews.

This is just one example of the anti-Christian bias spreading throughout Israel.  Or we could talk about the spitters, how about that?

This isn&#039;t how Jews act in other countries.  The problem isn&#039;t with Jews, it&#039;s with Israel, where Judaism has been corrupted with hate and intolerance.</description>

		<description>Aristeides, you are full of baloney. There are posters on this site who are quite critical of Israel&#039;s policies, yet I do not consider them to be anti-semites (Vicky, for example). You, on the other hand, have proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that you have an axe to grind with Judaism (not just Israel). I have even seen quite liberal posters (who are VERY critical of Israel) turned off from your posts. At any rate, if you can&#039;t understand that a religious Jew will not eat in a restaurant that doesn&#039;t have a certificate of kashrut because anybody can say they are kosher and this has nothing to do with being &quot;hostile towards Christians&quot; then I have obviously been giving you more credit than you deserve (I thought you were at least an intelligent anti-semite, but now I am even doubting that)....</description>
