[QUOTE="JudeoGnosticCounterAssault:905347"]Okay, point by point. Voltaire is certainly an Enlightenment hero with much to recommend for him, but even a glance at "Candide" reminds one that his problems with fanaticism extend towards all religions and ideologies. Jews are hardly singled out by his thinking. Nor does his pedigree outweigh the fact that these remarks are careless and unthinking. None of the passages cited by you in the Hebrew Bible refer to the "extermination of the hated Goys." They refer to the restoration of earth as the kingdom of God, in which righteous Gentiles are -incorporated into the Elect- and the wicked meet their fate. This of course is the basis of the theology of the apostle Paul (as, for example, in Gal. 1:15's reminiscence of Is. 49, esp. v. 6, and Jer. 1:4-5). Enochian and Jewish apocalyptic literature in general (as in Dan., Jub., the Ezra books, Merkabah/Hekhaloth ascent treatises, etc.) deals too with the restoration of the martyrs and wise at the eschaton. However, they define piety not by covenantal nomism but far more general ethics of learning and goodwill. If that's not your bag Your invocation of Martin Luther is best answered of course by Crowley, who called his movement "the excrement of human thought." The Great Beast quips that “intolerance is evidence of impotence.”[/QUOTE]
