@Sleepyguy saidThanks! I am getting cables together to get my rig going again, moved to new place, found a wire antenna design thanks to the folks at Palomar engineering, which is funny, I attended Palomar College in San Marcos.
Ham radio dudes rock.
They showed an antenna off center dipole using a 9 to 1 balun, so the numbers they gave me for the wires was 71 feet long for one leg and 41 feet for the second leg, and the balun transforms the radio which likes 50 ohm impedance and about 450 ohms out and that is what feeds each wire, so it is a dipole antenna and good for the bands from 80 meters to 10 and 6 meters, maybe even 2 meters, 140 odd Mhz without needing an antenna tuner, so that is my spring project.
I have a buddy in New Jersey who runs on 80 meters, 3.5 to 4 Mhz, he runs about 3.72 megs with his buddies and I had weak signal at old house so this newer antenna may help me hook up with him. We used to work at the same place in South Plainfield NJ.
@Rajk999 saidThe Bible contains two distinct religions, Judaism and Christianity.
The post says it should be condemned.
Should. .. You need to go back to school.
The Bible contains two distinct religions, Judaism and Christianity.
Clearly you dont know the difference.
Again go back to school.
Why the same Bible then?
@Rajk999 saidExcept there are sub headings of both religions, Baptist, Methodist and so forth but in my mind BOTH Islam and Christianity suck, ok to kill the other religion because GOD said so, right, a GOD would favor one bunch over the other, since both religions are 100% man made, no god in sight. which is not me saying there is no such thing as a god, just THOSE alleged gods are BS.

@KingDavid403 saidWhen you meet God, ask him. The fact remains Judaism and Christianity are miles apart. However no practicing Jew recommends the killing of adulterers, like in Islam.

@Rajk999 said"The Bible does command the followers to kill non-believers in several places. For example, Deuteronomy 13, Deuteronomy 17, and Numbers 31 all include this gruesome, dreadful, and hideous commandment. I may add that the last passage also tells the Israelites to save all the virgin females. One does not need to be a genius to figure out why it’s specifically the virgin females who have to be saved…"

Not at all. Now that's an un-educated statement.
However no practicing Jew recommends the killing of adulterers,
Not today, but they sure use too. They killed many people for adultery; and called for it.
like in Islam.
Have you ever noticed that Islam runs concurrent with The Old Testament?
And, most practicing Muslims today do not call for the deaths of anybody.
@sonhouse saidClearly you lack the ability to understand the difference between Christianity and Judaism. Go back to school....

@sonhouse saidChristianity was taught by Paul and the Apostles who were inspired by the Holy Spirit and Jesus Christ. It is a totally different doctrine from Judaism which is in the Torah or the first 5 books of the Old Testament.
Ah, the old testament is not Christianity. Got it.
The early Catholic Church committed so many acts of evil because they failed to understand the difference between Judaism and Christianity.
@Rajk999 saidAnd what was the holy scriptures understood by and quoted from by Jesus and the authors of the New testament?

@kmax87 saidQuoting from the Tanakh only means that Jesus and the Prophets recognised it as a the Word of God, and it contains valuable words of wisdom and guidance. The prophets foretold of the coming of Christ and of events in the last days, therefore Jesus used these texts as this is what the Jews were familiar with.
And what was the holy scriptures understood by and quoted from by Jesus and the authors of the New testament?
The new doctrines taught by Paul was all about Jesus, his death and resurrection which ushered in a new era for mankind where all the Law of Moses, ie the entire Torah with all the details can be fulfilled in one thing ie love you neighbour as yourself.
Maybe the early Catholic Church failed to grasp the significance of the death of Christ, and his new one critical law so instead they focused on applying nonsense petty laws about burning witches and other such trivialities.
In any case Judaism and Christianity although connected through Christ are two distinct and separate religious beliefs.
@Rajk999 saidWell then, my 8 years going K to 8 in the First Lutheran School, cudda fooled me. I would have sworn the old testament was still included in Christian religions.

I clearly remember them telling the 'let there be light' story, and if I am not wrong, that IS in the old testament.
But think of the money Christianity can save by making the bible only that new testament thing, half the weight, hundreds of useless pages nobody needs to read and a lot cheaper to sell at church.
@sonhouse saidLike I said, because of a lack of understanding, you would have joined in with the Catholic Church and persecuted people.

@Rajk999 saidExcept for the tiny detail I knew by the time I was 9 Christian religions were all fake man made power plays. So I profoundly thank my Lutheran school years.
