New to the forum

 Hello, I'm new to the forums here. I'm a twenties something Jewish man from the US. I've lived in Israel (don't speak Hebrew yet, but I'll get there). I grew up in a reform Jewish home, but have since become more conservative. I am deeply commited to loving Hashem with all my heart, soul and strength. 

Also if you were wondering, my username refers to Judas Maccabeus. His nickname was The Hammer, and he defeated Antiochus IV to gain temporary independence for Judea before the Roman conquest.

Welcome!

Welcome!

Our revels now are ended. These our actors, | As I foretold you, were all spirits, and | Are melted into air, into thin air; | And, like the baseless fabric of this vision, | The cloud-capped towers, the gorgeous palaces, | The solemn temples, the great globe itself, - Yea, all which it inherit, shall dissolve, | And, like this insubstantial pageant faded, | Leave not a rack behind. We are such stuff | As dreams are made on, and our little life | Is rounded with a sleep. - Shakespeare

I checked out some threads by this anonymouse character. Don't worry, I've heard it all before.

Wow, I am always pleased to

Wow, I am always pleased to see other deity believers besides Christians come to atheist boards.

But, we are here to show you that you are in the same boat as any other believer of any other religion. Many here take the gloves off when it comes to debate so we hope you are not faint of heart.

I concur with Brian.

I concur with Brian. Christians followed by christians followed by christians gets a bit boring, and it's always good to have a new perspective.

Welcome to the site. Smiling
