I hope all the Jews on Apolyton BURN....... Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations

BURN!!!!!.......their Chaumetz before Passover starts

HAPPY PASSOVER!

Put DOWN the flamethrowers-explination below:


For those who dont know anything with bread/yeast in it is banned to be eaten, or be in the house of most Jews during the holiday of Passover(which starts in 2 days, sooner Israel time). Some of it is ritualistically burned the morning of the first day of Passover.

For more information on it......


http://www.jewish-holiday.com/Pes02laws.html

Excerpt:

"What is Chametz?

"Chametz" includes breads, cookies, cakes, pastries, noodles, macaroni, whiskey or liquor. Basically, it refers to wheat, barley, rye, oats or spelt that came into contact (for 18 minutes or more) with liquid. Eating Chametz on Passover is as severe a violation as eating on Yom Kippur.

The Chametz prohibition applies even to minute particles of Chametz, such as:

A. Food containing any Chametz, or food processed in utensils once used to process food containing Chametz. All processed foods must have a reliable Kosher for Passover Supervision.

B. We are not allowed to derive any benefit from Chametz. Example: We cannot buy, sell, or give Chametz as a gift, or use Chametz as pet food for dogs, birds, or fish. If there is no Kosher for Passover alternative, the pet must be transferred to non-Jewish ownership.

C. Any Chametz left in the house, store, or car, etc., must be transferred to gentile ownership before Passover.




All chametz found during the search, and all Chametz left from breakfast, must be burned in the (late) morning (Wednesday, March 27), followed by this declaration annulling all Chametz:

"All manner of leaven in my possession which I have seen or have not seen, which I have removed or have not removed, shall be null and void as the dust of the earth."

The Chametz Deadline

Check your calendar for the exact deadline for eating & burning Chametz the morning before Passover for your area.

Note: Any chametz found in the house during Passover must be burned immediately, unless it is on Yom Tov (1st, 2nd, 7th, or 8th day) or on Shabbos, in which case it should be covered, and burned later during the intermediate Chol Hamoed days, or after Passover.



The Sale of Chametz

To avoid owning Chametz on Passover, we sell any remaining chametz to a gentile through the rabbi.

The gentile buyer gives a deposit, and the balance is considered a loan. The Chametz sale is legally binding, but the option of paying the balance is up to the buyer, who may return it to the seller and retrieve his deposit.

Place all Chametz utensils in the room or closet(s) to be sold. These designated places should be sealed with tape or locked, not to be opened until after Passover.

Unsold Chametz

The prohibition against Chametz also applies to all Chametz owned by any Jew during Passover. It is advisable to patronize only bakeries or groceries owned by Jews who sold their Chametz, or to buy from non-Jewish owned stores. Consult a Rabbi regarding buying Chametz after Passover from supermarket chains with Jewish ownership."






DISCLAIMER: This is obviously NOT meant in racism, since I all of you know I am one of the more observant Jews on Apolyton. If ANY MODERATOR objects to this post, just delete the thread-no harm done, meant as a bit of holiday humor/information for other apolytonites(Posted this on an Israeli message board, many LOL's all around, so I figured I'd repost it here).

If you feel the need to put such a long disclaimer, maybe you shouldn't have posted the title as you did.

Judaism dosent activley seek out converts........the ultimate goal of Judaism is that at some indeterminate point in the future, there will be no Jews.

Jews are supposed to act/live in a manner such as to inspire others to do good/be pious-the ultimate goal of which is some day everyone will be nice to each other, and we arent needed

Judaism has something called the noahkide(sp? I know I slaughtered it....) laws. Non Jews arent asked or expected to follow the Jewish laws, and any gentiles who follow the noahkide laws are fine in the Jew's book

(They are simple sociatal stuff, dont steal, kill etc.....)

I have no illusions about the sources of many of the diatary laws-but having followed them my entire life I am acustomed to them. If nothing else it has given me a GREAT deal of self controll and discipline.

Amen Troll, and Plato

Thank Christ for his atoning sacrifice, as our Passover Lamb.

Isaiah 1:18:

"Come now, let us reason together," says the LORD . "Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool."

This is the gift that Christ offers us.

Judaism doesn't require that one be Jewish in order to go to the afterlife - indeed, it's easier to go to the afterlife if you're not a jew (cause there are a lot of laws to follow if you are a jew), so people who want to convert are discouraged from doing so in order to make sure that those who still want to convert are truely prepared to observe those laws.

Is the concept of an afterlife commonly accepted in Judaism? I was always under the impression that it wasn't a real tenet of Judaism, but something that was rather "interpreted" into the religion. I have heard this from a few sources, but those could be wrong.

Anyhoo, happy Passover to all our nice Jewish boys and goils.
