How would it change the theology?
Didn't know that. I would love to see the respected brightest minds of Catholicism and Judaism debate.
Don't know if it would or wouldn't.
Been there a lot and well documented in Jewish literature. Was a dangerous thing to engage with, but many of our sages where forced to by the ones in power, and often ended up in the Auto-da-fé for forcibly speaking their minds.
There were numerous debates over the centuries. I have searched in the past for records of them but only found among Jewish sources.
Was gonna post these as sources, but I see every single footnote leads to a clearly Jewish source. Interesting.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disputation_of_Barcelonahttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disputation_of_Paris
Was looking for something current.
Jewish religion didn't evolve an inch. Anyway, do your research and you'll be glad we don't go back to the dark medieval ages. The world is a better place without.
There is no way they could have a debate about the internet in the 1200's.
what is the debate topic exactly?
Jewish religion didn't evolve an inch.
it's good to be a Lubavitcher
Well, that would depend on how you define evolve now, wouldn't it?
First find a new topic (like internet) that Judaism agrees upon internally, then we can talk about debating other religions. Haven't you learned anything hanging around here about our monolithicity?
The two religions have many things in common. It would be about things they don't have in common. The one listed from the stone age was about the Messiah.
I don't fully understand this. Wouldn't the ideal debate be about the validity of either religion
That would be an all out brawl.
but debating opinions on which frosting is the best option for chocolate cake without agreeing on the chocolate cake seems like a waste of a debate
