its a city like none other... coming from a NY asswipe like me says something...
the best spot i was at, in my opinion, was a "nothing" corner of some courtyard. what was so special about it was that in one view, you could see first the tomb of king david (jewish), directly on top of that is the location of the last supper (christianity), and in the distance you see the mosque (sp?) (muslim)... in essense, thats what jerusalem is all about--the conversion of the three altogether.... |

Great job Doc.
eric, your partially correct...the differenc being: He died innocent, willingly, and had the power to stop it at any point. Thank God for all the mothers that gave their sons willingly to pay the high price of freedom. |

i dont mean this in a condesending (sp?) or arrogant way at all.. but when i was there, i did learn he had a jewish burial.. i saw the place where his tomb lay too... i might not believe in him or it for that matter, but for the sake of history, it still was interesting...
