Concerns

I have a few concerns about this case.

• I am listed alone against three users who often took an opposing position. This makes it look like I am alone against the consensus, which is untrue.

I don't really see that there are "sides" in this debate; Homestarmy has certainly agreed with you on many of the involved issues. I simply included those of us who have been involved in the dispute of late. We can certainly add others.ParadoxTom 02:24, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

• Issue #1. There has been a vote Talk:Jews_for_Jesus/Archive2#straw_poll and even though I find such votes silly, the outcome may give some impression.

Yes, I do not see the relevance, though.ParadoxTom 02:24, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

• Issue #2. I find it inappropriate and offensive to even suggest that some group, other than religious leaders of mainstream Judaism, can redefine the basic principles of Judaism.

I agree completely. And indeed, that is at issue; whether you, or anyone here, can make a blanket claim about Judaism that may not be in accord with the views of some of its members.ParadoxTom 02:24, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

• Issue #3. I thought we have already found a compromise and resolved it. ←Humus sapiens 00:59, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

I too was wondering about the somewhat small group of participants, even though several of them haven't edited or talked on the article heavily recently, users such as User:Mantanmoreland, User:Abscissa, User:Jayjg, and User:Eliyak might have something to say. (Whatever happened to User:Justforasecond, did he really quit I suppose?) Homestarmy 01:18, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

I think these issues are far from "resolved". Hence, the mediation.ParadoxTom 02:24, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
