Reply To: The Cunningness Of Hashem So Apparent In The Creation

i havent been following the thread but heres an intersting conversation i heard about, i believe it really took place but i dont recall the exact words. this is a recreation:

missionary: your religion is not the true one, can i please have a few minutes of your time, your soul is at stake

Rabbi: do you mind if i ask you a few questions first?

m: certainly

R: the only way i can be saved and go to Heaven is if i accept J as my savior and become an xtian, correct?

m: yes

R: and whatever sins i have done or will do, no matter how horrible, i will be forgiven and go to Heaven if i accept J. correct?

m: yes

R: and if i do not accept J, then even if i have been very good all my life, i will go to H–l?

m: yes, for sure!

R: so let me get this straight now. Htler and his underlings, most of whom were x-tians, accepted J, and went to chrch, they are all now in heaven, sitting on clouds, eating steak and sipping champagne, no matter how monstrous were their acts. right?

m: well i dont know what they are doing there but yes they are in Heaven.

R: and their innocent victims, who did not accept j, the sweet women and innocent babies, the Holy men, the six million who were horrendously, continually and mercilessly tortured to DEATH, where, if i may ask are they?

m: well,i mean, well, yes (awkwardly) if they didnt accept J, then they are in eternal dmnation, being tortured in excrutiating pain

R: this is what you truly believe?

m: yes, i have faith, perfect faith

R: then you can keep your faith and your religion, im not interested
