It's Your Own Mess Shmuley Don't Use Me To Clean It Up

It's Your Own Mess Shmuley Don't Use Me To Clean It Up

IT’S YOUR OWN MESS SHMULEY – DON’T USE ME TO CLEAN IT UP By Rabbi Michael Skobac While no doubt reveling in all the attention his recent book is receiving, Shmuley Boteach has begun feeling the heat of scrutiny that it and he are attracting. His recent attempt to invoke a booklet I wrote as support for his “Kosher Jesus” is a desperate tactic. While there may be some similarity between my “The DaVinci Code: A Jewish Perspective” and his work, Boteach surely knows that it’s a far stretch from s

Responding to Missionaries and Cults On Campus and in Israel

Many college students and students "doing their year" in Israel have contacted Jews for Judaism to speak about run-ins they have had with missionaries and cult recruiters.

David's Story

David's Story

My name is David. I was born a Jew. When I was growing up, I had a very limited Jewish education. It was in my mid-20's when I began to feel the need for some sort of spirituality. I began to search for G-d, and I was answered by a Fundamentalist Christian -- my landlord's son, whom we'll call Jeff. He, Jeff, told me about Jesus. He told me that Jesus was my savior. He told me Jesus died for me. He told me that I needed to repent my sins and accept Jesus to be "saved". As an un-educated, non

When thousands of Jews from around the world gathered recently in Warsaw and at Auschwitz to remember the Holocaust and pray for our dead, dozens of unwanted "guests" were praying alongside them offering their condolences, feeling their pain, and, while they're at it, suggesting that the only way for Jews to get over the Holocaust is to accept Jesus as their personal savior. In a remarkable fund-raising letter obtained by Jews for Judaism, Reverend Elwood McQuaid, head of a New Jersey-based mis
