If Only I Had a Child to Abuse

Let's say you never give your kid crappy food. And I don't mean unhealthy, I mean only GOOD unhealthy. No Dominos. Only Lou Malnatis. No Fudgsicles. Only Godiva. The child would develop a much more discerning palette at an early age. And then growing up as a child, having mostly access to only the lower-class of unhealthy goods at birthday parties and the like, the child would reject them. Is this feasible, or can you only develop a palette that can tell the difference between good and bad if you actually experience both?

Jesus Wasn’t Jewish

Words change. And while 2,000 years ago, it was appropriate to identify Jesus as a Jew, I no longer think this identification makes sense. 2,000 years ago, Jews were the remnant of the children of God, those who followed the commands of the law, waiting for the Messiah to come who would fix the separation problem between man and God that happened because of the fall in the Garden. Jesus claimed to be that Messiah. So, today, Jews are the remnant of THAT remnant who do NOT believe that Jesus was that Messiah. And by definition, doesn't that excludes Jesus as a Jew?
