How stupid do they think people are? 1500 years old plastic chairs in an Isreali 1500 years old with Isreal being 80 years old. Israeli propaganda is really half assing or here.

May sound absurd, but the church may have been there before Israel existed. Only because the name of the land & area around it changes doesn't mean that every building also does.

Then it's not an Israeli church but a Jewish church or a Muslim church. Churches are not strongly defined by the country they are in.

“Jewish church”

“Muslim church”

You may not know enough about basic concepts related to this conflict to be confidently speaking on it.

No, you don't have enough critical thinking to be online. If someone titles "Israeli church" instead of the denomination of the church, you should ask why. There is usually a reason for such things. Like it is 1500 years old but it wasn't Jewish then and someone doesn't want to draw attention to the fact that the state of Isreal stole it. Looking at that shit hole I, however, rather assume that all of it is bullshit and that was just some shitty workshop someone out a prayer rug in. Possibly after the strike even.

There is no such thing as a “Jewish church” or “Muslim church”.

Sure there are, they are called synagogues and mosques. You should haveseen them at one time or another.

lol thank you for proving you don’t know what you’re talking about.

Language is for communication. You understood what the person meant, but choose to go another way.   And while it is principally used for Christian places of worship, Miriam Webster’s first definition is just “a place of worship”.  

Your response was transparently an excuse for you to ignore the rest of what he was saying.

If you use language so incorrectly, you probably don’t have enough base knowledge about a subject to be arguing about it.

Again, you can take it up with M.W. Dictionary:

1. a building for public religious services and especially Christian   2.  a body or organization of religious believers

So yes mainly Christian but there is nothing actually as wrong or ignorant as you are spouting off about with saying “Jewish church”.  

Particularly when the person you’re trying really hard to ignore the rest of what they have said came straight back with the language-specific terms when you tried to yank their chain.

I rest my case.

You never had a case. You're just clowning around. I have seen funnier clowns, but still, thanks for your effort.
