Do not accuse another Freeper of lying. It attributes motive, the intent to decieve. It is "making it personal."

Words such as "wrong" "false" "error" do not attribute motive.

Discuss the issues all you want, but do not make it personal.

With appropriate respect, "lying" is the proper word. The poster spread vicious lies and slander about Orthodox Judaism, which almost certainly came from his/her own sick imagination and/or prejudices. It is absurdly inconceivable that a convert to Orthodox Judaism would describe a "conversion" ceremony that involved standing naked and having water poured over her in front of men, or spitting on a Bible. No such ceremony exists, and such a ceremony would violate at least a half a dozen Torah commands. It is nearly akin to someone saying "a Jewish friend of mine told me that they add a ceremonial drop of Christian virgin blood to Passover matzah" or "a Jewish friend of mine told me that Jews like to stab the consecrated host." It is far, far more probable that the poster himself/herself invented this lie to spread vicious falsehoods about Jews and Judaism. I have no tolerance for that crap, and neither should FR.

I’m not following your logic with regards to post #26. The post is just screaming antisemitic buffoonery. But it ain’t kosher to criticize because the poster is saying its true? What if said poster claimed that his friend “who never lied” knew that Christian kids were being killed and their blood used to make matzo or that the Protocols were legit?

With all due respect, please pull post #26. Its disgusting and has no place on FR.
