This writing by Rev. Ted Pike is a horrible distortion to Judaism, The Laws of The Toroh which is created by Hashem Our Creator himself, thus a distortion of him, and possibly the term He calls Homosexual behavior along with some other similar activity
and other types of horrific actions, as a תועבה [transliterated: ToAvoh, commonly translated as Abomination] may be appropriate to describe this distortion also.

Firstly, Rev. Ted Pike states:
Today, Judaism, more than any religion, has rejected moral
judgments against homosexuality, and supports the gay agenda. Reform
Judaism, representing 39 percent of American religious Jews, is now in
total endorsement of sodomy. .... etc.

Firstly is homosexuality and sodomy are not equivalent behaviors. Though both are explicitly prohibited in the Toroh by Hashem [G-d] they are not the same. Homosexuality is sexual behavior between to persons of the same sex, gender, thus the prefix homo-.
Sodomy as defined in the Merriam-Webster dictionary as: anal or oral copulation with a member of the same or opposite sex; also : copulation with an animal. The Toroh states these two with different words, and actually one word for a male human with a
female animal, and another word for a female human with a male animal. So we see, sodomy is not Homosexuality, though the act can be with any two humans, homo or hetero.

Secondly, to describe any accepted behavior of any and all types of people ascribing themselves as Jews or as Judaism but do not follow the Toroh of Hashem [G-d], but rather absolve themselves from the obligations and their connection with the Creator [
Hashem], is NOT acceptable to state that "Judaism" has accepted, rejected, or what is the correct stance or position of the Toroh. What can be said, is that a significant majority of those who can be traced to having a lineage of Benei Yisroeil [Sons/
Children of Israel, often called Jews] have accepted incorrect behavior the Toroh, Hashem [G-d] explicitly forbids or requires. This is nothing new, since the vast majority of people with this lineage have strayed from the correct path through the
influence of the society of the other peoples of the world we live among, especially during the last 10-140 years as We left from the Stedel [towns] in Europe, North Africa, Western Asia [Near East] to the modern, Westernized civilizations and integrated.
It is a very sad situation, though many of later generations continue and a large number return to follow the correct behavior of the Toroh [which i have chosen to do with my wife, thus forming a family following too]. In The Land of Yisroeil [Israel],
there are a much larger group continuing to follow the Laws of The Toroh and with a much stronger base. Perhaps it is so because We are separate from the other nations of the World an their influence is less. However, today's modern world has influence
on most everyone via the technology which we are using here, so we are not insulated, but still with some protection and solidarity.
The Rev. Ted Pike states these

Then the Rev. Ted Pike goes on to bring statements and sections from the Talmud [Gemora] to show more "immoral" acceptance including the ADL and others.
The fact is, Rev. Ted Pike does not have an accurate translation nor comprehension and certainly not understanding of these statements, sections, discussions and decisions of the Talmud. The Talmud is written in a manner that requires a Rebi, and teacher
who has been taught by such and connected to those for the Millennium and a half or so since it compilation and to those continuing back to the initial revelation at Mount Sinai. Rev, Ted Pike and those who have printed translations do not convey this
accurately. In addition, Rev. Ted Pike has introduced is own distortions, along with coupling them with those vast amount of "Jews" who have chosen to go astray along with their leaders who maintain these paths.
In fact these Talmud sections are not discussing the aspect of permission for the acts discussed, rather the level of punishment as defined by the Toroh [an Hashem]. One who knows the concepts, principles, rules and laws defined in these and by Hashem,
knows these are forbidden in all cases, manner and way, though the level of punishment executed by the Court is different and some are executed by Hashem [G-d].
The Rev. Ted Pike then goes on to describe the basis for those who have strayed and the position of "Jewdism" and "Rabbis" opposing the religion of Chrixstianity. This again is clearly false, from the actual sources. He fails to give the correct lineage
and development of the religion including it correct initial source and the steps of development into the Catholic religion during the Roman Empire under Michael Constantine. In addition, then the later developments of other sects in Europe over the
Millennium.
The actual facts include the knowledge of a man named Yesha, a "Jew" [one of Benei Yisroeil], who had become among the level of those with high level knowledge, comprehension, meaning, understanding, observance, practice, and more. In the Talmud, it
states of this man and some horrible, horrific things he did. It also states a conversation a man Unkelos Ben Kurnikos, a nephew of Titus The Evil, The Roman General who destroyed Yerushaliem [and the story about him also], who brought the souls of three
evil people from the other world [which is explicitly forbidden for someone of Benei Yisroeil] to speak with each about his intention to convert and become one of Benei Yisroeil. He speaks first with Titus The Evil, then Bilam The Evil, then Poshei
Yisroeil [Yesha]. Only Yesha tells him it is good. Unkelos asks each one what punishment they are receiving. Yesha tells him he is knee high in dung, excrement. The explanation for this specific punishment from Hashem [G-d] corresponds to his horrible,
horrific actions he did. This Yesha is the man You call Yeshua or Jesus or other similar names. He was the Son of G-d, like all of Benei Yisroeil are, not as this made of version, which Hashem [G-d] states in His Toroh, can not exist, for Hashem can
never be himself in any physical likeness nor physical existence except in the manner which ALL CREATION is an extension and manifestation of Him [which need significant learning, comprehension and understanding most which is beyond any human].

If any "Rabbis" are opposed to this religion of Chirxtianity, it is to the extent of the statements, representation, manifestations and extensions of these non-truths, falsity and distortions of truth [some of which am stating here].

If the Rev. Ted Pike or anyone wants to know the actual truth, We can help, aid and abed it.

My first suggestion is to read Deuteronomy 13 [all of the chapter] about the false prophet. Add the verse at the end of Chapter 12 to it. This will give a good basis for how We know the entire concept of Chrixstianity and that which is presented and
believed about Yesha, Yeshua, Jesus, etc. is an impossible prophet and what should be his judgement in the Sanhedrin Court. However, in his time, there was not any prophecy, since the destruction of the First Holy Temple on the mount, nor could the
Sanhedrin execute this necessary judgement against him, so Hashem did and does. In actuality, the Toroh was given only to Benei Yisroeil in a written and oral form as a package. The written form has been translated under duress, and penalty of death by Tholomy upon The 72 men of the Sanhedrin of his time, thus called the Septuagint.
It was translated into Greek for him with a specific set of changes each made individually, by a miracle, exactly the same, which We have a record of along with the reasoning. Later in Rome, this was translated into Latin. Later in England under the
direction and demands of King James the first English version was compiled and printed; KJV. Each version has distortions in them. A more modern version of the Bible was compiled and printed; NKJV, The Prophets and Writing were translated similarly.
Although these are inaccurate, incorrect and distorted, still it can have some value. Have seen those who see these verses in these versions gain a different knowledge, comprehension, view, perspective and perception. These books, their laws, rules,
concepts, adherence, observance and preservation were meant for the Benei Yisroeil [Sons/Children of Israel]. Reading all of Deuteronomy will aid in the expansion of this knowledge, comprehension and more. Even better, as many who have contacted me have
said, reading the first five, from Genesis at the beginning of creation through to Exodus, then Leviticus, on to Numbers and Deuteronomy in order, chapter by chapter, verse by verse, developed a new, more complete knowledge, comprehension, view,
perspective and perception. Then continuing on in order the next twenty books through the Prophet and Writings. This is the complete set of written books who's words come from Hashem [G-d], Our Creator, Our King, Our Master, etc. There are none else.
In fact He states explicitly, there are and will be no changes from what is contained in the first five called The Toroh. Any changes are clearly a distortion, obviously false and not to be accepted. In fact the idea of changing what is written, which
Rev. Ted Pike states about a large amount of "Jews" [Reform, Conservative, etc.] is exactly what the Chrixsitan religion basis has. This IS obviously clear as its distortion to Who, What Hashem [G-d] Is, Was, and Will.

There are Laws and Rules the other nations of the World are responsible and required to follow. They are known as the Seven Noahide Laws, which were known in the World through Noah's time until Avraham [Abraham]. After the revelation at Sinai, which
included the knowledge of these Seven, the knowledge, comprehension, preservation, transmission and access of these is with Benei Yisroeil [Sons/Children of Israel] which include all of the details of observance, adherence, execution and judgement. There
are some groups of people today who have chosen to follow these, some with leaders who were Ministers or Reverends in the Chrixstianity. and see the clarity of truth. This is something am encouraging also, to look into.

Now that We are in a New Year, especially in the ten days of judgement, it is a good time to review, look into these sources, aspects, knowledge, comprehension, views, perspectives, perceptions, adherence, execution and judgement.
My Blessing Is One of Success in Your venture of Life and Truth.
May You have a Judgement for a Good, Sweet New Year and All The Best from Hashem [G-d]
May Hashem Be With You, Always
[for those who want to be connected with Him]
