I'm Jewish, don't worry! For me, I would think it would a great thing to do as a mezzuzah does bless the house. Are you putting one up out of respect for your step family or because you do indeed think it will be a blessing and a "mitzvah" to do? If you truly believe in it's sanctity, as it is a sacred object whether then to appease your step family then it's fine.

Well, your word was censored (thanks Yahoo!), but th eanswer is probably "yes".  So long as everyone involved is kosher with it.

Actually the Bible only condemns certain foods for Jewish people, later in the New Testament it says that all things are cleansed by God's grace with the giving of thanks. Basically the premeal prayer

It's a Jewish thing. It's a way to respect & honour G-d by not daring to write his name.

MERRY CHRISTMAS...It's ridiculous that anyone gets offended by it.  If someone were to tell me Happy Kwanza, or Happy Hannukah, I wouldn't get offended either.  It's obviously something that person believes in, and they are trying to wish me the best.  There's no harm in it, whether I believe in it or not.

kosher dills have garlic in them,  regular dills do not\n\nQ: What is a ‘kosher pickle?’\nA: The word "kosher" itself is derived from Hebrew and actually means religiously proper or acceptable.  Today, however, for many avid pickle lovers "kosher" has come to mean that garlic flavor has been added. Mt. Olive's pickles are both kosher and kosher: our kosher dills are not only garlic flavored, but they are also produced in accordance with kosher dietary laws. All of our products have the approval of the Jewish Orthodox Congregations of America and carry the widely recognized OU symbol.

Definitions of Kosher salt  on the Web:\n\n    * Coarse-grained salt that is easy to handle; keep a container near the stove and use it while you cook.\n      http://www.recipestogo.com/glossary/glossaryK.html\n\n    * keep a small dish of kosher or coarse salt near your range and season at every stage of the cooking process\n      http://www.ciudad-la.com/CIUFOO/CIUFOOGM/body_ciufoogm.htm\n\n    * Pure, refined salt used for pickling because it does not contain magnesium carbonate and thus does not cloud brine solutions. Also used to prepare kosher items. Also known as coarse salt or pickling salt.\n      http://www.ciakids.com/forkids/dictionary/p_dictionary.html\n\n\nTypically kosher salt, unlike common table salt, contains no additives (for example, iodine).

I do like them and they are used throughout the net. I especially like the Zionism=Naziism because that bares more truth than anyone wants to acknowledge.\n\n Seems to me that you are ahead of the game considering that you have observed that "NAZIISM" in fact has grown out of Zionsim which only serves the Zionist interest and creates a reason to lend sympathy for these repulsive lying people.\n\n It takes a great deal of insight and intelligence to know that Naziism is the creation of Zionist and not the German people. I bet most people don't even know that Hitlers entire army was Jewish? Thats a fact! Do a search on  "Hitlers Jewish Army" and you will find that it was the Jews alone who allegedly committed the so-called holocaust acts. Well , they fabricated most of them in order that people out of guilt would not question Zionism .\n\n  What will happen whem people realize that Naziism is of  the Zionist? Will when then have to pay reparations to the Germans for alienating them and accusing them of the holocaust myth? \n\n I have nothing but praise for the young today as most of them are beginning to understand the truth and are searching it out and revealing the myths that have been perpetrated upon America and Germany. our young are our future and I prey  you continual to thirst for the truth and reveal it to all and never back down. The truth must be know and it seems you know a little more of it than most do. Keep up the good wook...... i agree with you wholeheartedly.\n\nMatt : Yes I do ! Goto Whatreallyhappened.com and also read Titus 1;3-4 and see that God instructs us to never beleive anything that comes out of the Jews mouth, that the Jews are liars, and perverters of the word of God and will tell myths and fables. We are not to love the enemies of GOD. I hate them because they hate all mankind!\n\nMagicman: Why don't you use some of that magic to conjur up a brain. The state of Israel was created in 1948 after the Jews stole that name and applied it to their little terrorist country. The biblical saying of Those who bless Israel was spoken some 2000 years ago before the tiny state of Israel was stolen and created. The word Israel NEVER means a tiny piece of land that was stolen from its rightful people and will never mean a land at all. Israel means a people which have been dispersed from the so-called holy land never to return, and they, TRUE ISRAEL will never be back in the holy land because GOD will give them a new land and that land was America when it was first inhabited by whites.\n\n  That land was Judea before they stole the name of GODs chosen people and applied it to their stolen land so therfore it will always be Judea in accordance to scripture and will never be Isreal..... only in their dreams! Israel is a people and if you really want to bless Israel then you should start blessing the Anglo Saccsons people ,,,, Thats Saccsons from the tribe of Issac before the word was perverted by those who stole Israels heritage and changed it to SAXON so true Israle could never discover whom they are.\n\n Also Mr bible scholar, the Bible says GOD will leave the name "ISRAEL" as acurse unto those whole stole Israel's heritage and give Israel a new name. So ....according to scripture, anyone calling themselves Israel until Jesus comes back is an imposter and can never be true Israel unless they are under the new name. Do you know what that new name is? If you don't know then you are not a true Christian and you don't know Gods true word!\n\n And BTW the Holocaust is a hoax. The Holocaust is to happen to the Christians never any others. That is why it is yet to happen.

1)there is no such thing as 'Jewish blood.' A person can convert TO Judaism, and is therefore a Jew, and a person can convert from Judaism to another faith and is no longer a Jew. Jews define who is a Jew, not the wannabe-Jews.\n\n2)'clean' and 'unclean' are a bad translation. better would be something like, 'they will be considered gross to you,' or 'disgusting.'\n\n3)to answer your question, they are still relevant today TO JEWS. Jews were at Sinai, Jews received the commandments, and Jews were the ones commanded. \n\nPlease see http://WhatJewsBelieve.org

Cosha? You mean 'kosher'? That has to do with Jewish preparation, they have all kinds of rules too.\n\nMuslims and Jews do not eat pork of any type because the pig is considered an unclean animal. It's an omnivore, which means it can and will eat anything, and in the desert regions of the world, where these religions originated, the pigs ate whatever they could find, and it was often carrion, old rotting meat, even human remains ... so naturally pork wasn't considered safe for human consumption. If you look through old newspapers, you will find gruesome stories of pigs attacking very young children because the pigs are hungry and the children are there ... and easily overpowered. But the pigs are omnivores ... like us.

I believe the people that answered above are actually antisemitic and don't want to believe what you are saying. \nThis is a sad world we live in when they are willing to suffer as long as they can turn a blind eye towards truth.

I was raised as a Christian for safety reasons, but when my family moved to Florida we openly practiced Judaism again. \n\nI have no love for my fellow "Jews," most of whom have are converts, or are of mixed descent. The communities in Florida such as the Chabad on the Space Coast, and Temple Israel which is a reformed synagogue farther inland were as welcoming as a hornets nest. \n\nMy family and I tried to fit into their way of thinking, but they never accepted us.\n\nWe are Jews by birthright, and my family's lineage is pure on both my paternal and maternal sides. Unfortunately we weren't accepted by the Chabad because our birthright was not purchased, and the Reformed temple wouldn't accept us because most of the congregation had Nazi blood and was run by the daughter of a high level Nazi official. \n\nThere are very few left today are can truly be called Jews (despite what you may believe it is a birthright NOT a religion, and it takes ten generations/100 years before a convert's family/descendents are considered Jews). Unfortunately those that remain are well hidden and very far between.\n\nI don't believe that this generation's "Jew Haters" actually know who they hate. Their anger is simply directed at the group most obvious to them, and this is often their own people who have simply forgotten their past. \n\nFrom what I have seen, it is not the Nazis, or even the KKK and other such radical groups that cause most of the problems. It is the tightly-nit and inbred communities currently posing as Jews that create the hostility. They are unwilling to accept those who are not raised with their mindset, and while refusing to allow acceptance, try to force people to stay. \n\nMy family left Florida because we were not accepted by the Local "Jewish communities," they closed off the jobs, and it was near impossible to find work. Now that we have left they are the biggest problem. We are still alive and safe, but it is only by Hashem's hand and his alone that we survived the trip. \n\nI am sorry if I have offended anyone, but Nazis and other such groups are no longer the greatest threat to "True Jews", they are only the most publicized. It is the communities of Nazi-Jew descendents, Lilith worshipping converts, and mumzirm who pose as Jews that have become the true Jew haters. They are also the reason I have little respect for other "Jews" and no concern about the welfare of such people.

Everything smells like anti semitism to most Israelis  and I am sick of it   When will you jerks realize that you are in a religious state - and when someone speaks out against Israel, he is not necessarily anti-semetic - it just means they disagree with the policy of your government.  While we are talking about the Jewish State - when will Israel give us its illegal stockpile of nuclear arms?    I woul dlike to see the US begin to distance itself more and more away from Israel and would also like to see us curtail the defense "gifts" in foreign aid we send you --- and if you think that makes me an anti Semetic - Then Damn it, I am, and I am proud to be one....

Actually, africani, it would be most effective not to take your chances and wear a label around your neck that says you are not kosher. I found that was the best way to scare off Jewish Vampires. It's easiest when the vampire is Anabaptist. Shalom.
