What is he trying to do? He is obviously hiding something. 2) The question has been treated in great depth on net.religion - so why is this obvious Christian trying to bring such debate onto the Jewish net? If the question were even remotely sincere, the question has been treated in great depth on net.religion and has stalled there for lack of credible arguments from the Christians, he should be on net.religion trying to defend his beliefs - they are sadly in need of defending at the moment. 3) Is this obvious Christian asking a question to evoke a platform upon which he can foment some 'missionary' activity and bring us 'answers' to his own question? 4) Is this obvious Christian asking a question in order to extract some quote to use on net.religion embroil some unsuspecting victim in a new round of debate there on the topic? 5) What is the best way to deal with a 'John Doe' skulking around? [My guess is to ignore him?] 6) Are we going to need a moderator for this net?
