Telling a Jew to come to Jesus

‘Come to Jesus’ is a saying that people say when they mean it’s time to get right. You’re a moron.
But you don’t say that to a Jew. Classic common sense
Yeah you do. Sayings are cross cultural. You’re just being a bitch like normal.
Jews see Jesus as having been a good or great man. But not the Messiah, as he did not deliver them from the Romans.
I’d say Biden saying this to Bibi (if he did) was perhaps a bit insensitive but not real offensive: It is indeed a common non-religious phrase that means “everyone absorb the message and direction”.

What was he supposed to say? Bibi, its time to have a come to lucifer moment?
A company I worked for had an Indian (of the south asia variety) for a CEO and one of the Sr VPs said in a meeting I and the CEO was in, "there are no sacred cows".
You're picking nits.
My guess is Biden knew exactly it would be heard and it was his way to make it known, publicly, that the US is not happy with Israel.
Joe has been around long enough to know nothing is secret.
Really? I think Jews probably understand Christian based metaphors considering there are less than 20 million Jews in the world and over 2 billion Christians and the vast majority of Jews live either in the US or Israel and not so much places that are less familiar with Christianity.
I wouldn't have guessed you were Catholic. Did you only attend public schools?
The “coming from a Catholic” remark was directed to me, so…
I attended K at a public school, then 12 years at a Catholic school. But I don’t feel I was ever Catholic, meaning, that I ever bought in to the gig.
My bad, I was thinking it was biggrey who was claiming to be a Catholic when I don't see it in his posts at all (he sounds like he grew up mainly with Protestants to me). I definitely buy you as a lapsed Catholic who did time in Catholic school. I will say I bought in until l was a younger teenager. Maybe this isn't your experience, but with most lapsed Catholics I know we never really leave the extreme capacity for feeling shame/guilt behind (often unreasonably). I think you have some of that from reading your posts over the years. Biggrey strikes me as someone who never spent a minute worrying about having to talk to another human about his sins unless it was to brag about them.
When my old Indian attending was operating and things were difficult he used to say, "Jesus Christ! I hope this gets easier." One day I responded, "For the love of Vishnu, I hope you're right!"
