Nowhere, no how, have I asserted that “there is a halachic problem with participating in the census.” So please get your facts straight. What I did do was point out, by raising questions, was that your logic (attempting to discredit the other poster who maintained that it is “halachically questionable”) is faulty.
Your point that non-Jews are doing the count and that the Romans, Crusaders, and Arab Caliphs counted Jews previously, does not on its own answer hello99’s questions. So if you have anything of material to address the question on hand — which I again note I did not raise nor even state agreement with — by all means answer it.
