# 2. Comment on Video Clip: Are your sins forgiven, sir ? Lengthy Brit-Am Reply
Greetings, Yair--
May I commend you for your reply to the "Are your sins forgiven" comment.. Thank you for a measured, calm, non-confrontational approach. This does you great credit, in my view.
Whether one's sins are forgiven is a question that sooner or later confronts every human being; but it's not germane to the issues on your website or in this discussion. Â Thank you for sticking to the subject, and may your efforts be rewarded.

2. Proverbs 23: 19-21 Give Consideration to Yourself and for Others
http://hebrewnations.com/articles/bible/proverbs/proverbs23.html
Proverbs 23:
19. Listen you son of mine and become wise, and straighten your heart in the way
Listen to what is being said to you.
[Peronally I have a problem with this and so others. We often fail to hearken to what others say, do not follow directions nor pay attention to instruction and advice.
It does not cost much to correct this, a little bit more paying attention, some increased consideration and appreciation for those addressing us. It pays to do this.]
20 Do not be with heavy drinkers of wine,
nor with gluttonous devourers of meat for the sake of it.
Avoid those who indulge too much in eating and drinking and in substance abuse.
They will take advantage of you as will as induce you to follow their example to your detriment.
21Â For the heavy drinker and the glutton shall be impoverished,
And torn rags will be dressed on one through drowsiness.
Everything takes energy and time. Positive things such as learning Torah, learning in general, physical exercise, etc, give something back.
They increase your ability to enjoy what time is left you. Negative habits have just the opposite effect.
Not only do they waste your time while you are doing them but after that you are liable to suffer from their after effects.

3. New Article. RECONCILIATION?
Should Jews and Christians Get Together? by Yair Davidiy
http://hebrewnations.com/articles/eph/reconciliation.html
Extract:
We have been invited to speak at a conference discussing Reconciliation between Christians and Jews.
We shall probably accept the invitation though have not yet done so.
In our opinion fiction in the past was due to:
On the Christian Side
Christians were encouraged to hate Jews due to:
Ethnic and cultural differences for which religious arguments served as a cloak.
Fear on the part of Christian dignitaries of Jewish influence on their constituents.
A feeling amongst Christian Theologians and religious fanatics that lack of acceptance by the Jews of Christianity in some ways negated their beliefs.
On the Jewish Side
Jews traditionally kept their distance from Christians, because:
Jews were the objects of Physical persecution and discrimination by Christians.
Jews were afraid that too close contact would lead to sexual encounters and intermarriage.
It was feared that contact would result in Jews converting to Christianity for social reasons or through being mislead by missionary activity.
The idea existed, and still exists, that each side should learn to respect and live with the other, but at a psychological and social distance.....
