Judaism [W:141]

What is the thinking about why Cyrus the Great allowed the Jews to leave Persia and go back to Jerusalem?


Cyrus didn't allow all the the Jews to return to to Jerusalem, he allowed SOME Jews to return and that was because he just defeated the Babylonians and was looking to gain favor with with specific subsets of the Babylonian population because he needed spies and intel.

This is the thing about christians, they are as abysmally ignorant of the history of their own religion as they are of history in general.
 
Again, what's with the hostility? Did I offend you in some way?
If this is about you being a believer, I'm not trying to attack or reject your beliefs. I'm honestly just trying to share my own.

Because it is due to the secularism of the jews, and the jews who follow the irreligious ideaology of zionism, that is responsible for the constant violence against palestinians in israel.
 
Get ready because there's only one and that one will definitely reveal themselves when it's time. And even Christians will have to accept that verdict.

And what time is that?
 
Maybe he wants you to think that ever consider you're dealing with someone smarter than you?

If so then he is doing a pretty good job.
 
So says the man with no ability to discern between right and wrong.

And what makes you think I can't discern between right and wrong?
 
He's the best the ever was. Made me look like a fool and didn't even break a sweat.

I imagine that was not too high a hurdle.
 
You can now show me your ego is not in the way.

I don't need a gigantic stay puft marshmallow man in the sky to tell me what is right and wrong.

That's the difference between you and me.

He's not in the sky alone but the heart of your being. Look and ask softly He may answer.
 
That's your problem is that you don't imagine high enough.

There's a difference between imagination and make believe.
 
He's not in the sky alone but the heart of your being. Look and ask softly He may answer.

Or it could just be voices in one's head.

How do you tell the difference?

What frightens me is that you vote.
 
Of course but you'll never know the difference until you try.

Well then it's too late. Do you follow the voices in your head or not?

Now you've entered the zone of where it's not worth helping you. Give it time and you'll wonder how do I ever find peace? It's not with me look within.
 
Your hatred of cats is unforgivable. May you choke on your own hairball.


Ah, you've come to the right man.
You take two boxes, stick a screaming cat in one, and your electrons in the other. After shooting the cat into space (no particular point to this, I just hate cats) you take the box with your electrons and throw it as hard as you can at a cat (any cat will do). Just before the box hits the cat, the speed of the electrons is the speed of the box and its location depends on how fast (or trusting) the cat is.
Easy.
 
Well then it's too late. Do you follow the voices in your head or not?

spanky you're a smart person get beyond your disbelief in self and you'll find the whole world was made just for you. And that my friend is a wonderful thing.
 
When one of them makes reality come true.

One man's salvation is another's chance occurrence. If you pray for enough stuff eventually one will happen due to nothing other then odds but the devout will ignore all the misfires and apply the one positive outcome to divine intervention.
 
Now you've entered the zone of where it's not worth helping you. Give it time and you'll wonder how do I ever find peace? It's not with me look within.

God wouldn't give up. You are a poor use of god's gifts.
