Truth is found at Sinai, not in your personal experience.

And that is your own personal subjective truth.

It's based on faith, just as other people's religious beliefs are.

Actually, Judaism is the only religion in the world built on knowledge rather than faith. The Jewish people (along with the `Erev Rav) stood and actually heard the Voice of G-d--not some man claiming to represent or "be" G-d. This has never been forgotten and has been handed down from generation to generation ever since that time.

The Sinai Revelation is the only claim of direct, public national revelation in human history. No other religion even makes the claim; they disappear into the mists of history or else were founded by a human being.

I usually post this once a year at Shavu`ot, but apparently you haven't seen it yet.

Your personal dislike of me seems equalled only by your rejection of the very concept of objective religious truth.

You believe that, and that's fine. Whether or not it actually happened is another matter that isn't going to be resolved by simply asserting forcefully that it did (and most likely will never be resolved).

Maybe you ought to go all the way and convert. Most Jews aren't so keen on attacking other people's religions. They believe what they believe and believe that it's true but don't waste time trashing alternative traditions.

PS What makes you think I don't like you? A lot of what you do is tiresome -- even offensive, but you're certainly amusing, and that does count for something.
