I agree that an American Caesar is more likely, I will laugh if that Caesar is the descendant of German immigrants.

You can always tell when someone has gotten annihilated in an argument because they'll resort to soijacks as a cope.

Which version should I read for my first time?

For me it's the RSV2CE. The best of bible translations.

>Require Bible publishers to add 'anti-semitic' warnings to New Testament, Jewish groups say

>Christian and Islamic scripture, including the New Testament of the Bible, should start carrying warnings for passages deemed “anti-semitic,” a coalition of Jewish groups has asked.

>The European Jewish Congress, which represents several Jewish groups, asked for such changes in its Catalogue of Policies to Combat Antisemitism, released last week.

>"Holy Writ such as the New Testament or the Qur’an, as well as the writings of authoritative religious authors, doctrinal texts and religious laws need to be scrutinized for antisemitic contents,” the document states.

>“In Christianity, such texts would include the writings of saints like Ambrose of Milan or reformers like Martin Luther, the dogmatic tradition, church law and teaching. In Islam, such texts would include different parts of Hadith and Sira. Only when the antisemitic contents in the religious memories of Christianity and Islam are properly identified, will it be possible to combat antisemitism inside the various denominations, groups, and organizations of these two religions.”

>Later on in the recommendations section, the groups ask: "Translations of the New Testament, the Qur’an and other Christian or Muslim literatures need marginal glosses, and introductions that emphasize continuity with Jewish heritage of both Christianity and Islam and warn readers about antisemitic passages in them.”

>“While some efforts have been made in this direction in the case of Christianity, these efforts need to be extended and made consistent in both religions,” they add.

Is this a Christ-chan tread?

John 8
>58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.

You really should.

To learn about our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
