Yes, I totally agree. But as I said originally, the original topic that FZ was trying to prove is dying on the vine. What I see is that mostly this target audience are those who are wanting to be Judaized in their Christianity. They are shaloamers, Yeshuites, Yahwists who are more focused on a Medieval Rabbinical experience, or more like an MGM Moses type of Churchness. Where all sides of Judaism glances over at and winces.

Yes, this leads the reader to believe that he also shares those views. So, when I point out to FZ that he has the Jefferson approach, he denies. Yet, that is confusing and ends up impeaching the witnesses he is offering to us.

While being gracious, still doesn't negate that FZ is having a monumental proving the original thought of the thread. He knows it.

I agree with the latter may be in all of us. It takes great personal strength to see inwardly and shake ourselves awake. FZ is a pretty smart sincere brother, and I pray that we all come to the knowledge of truth.

That is quite obvious.
