While I'm at it putting people on the spot and making "not really dobie" threads, here's another. Rivka, and Ela? And others? Maybe you can help me (and others) out.
There's a couple of things I've always wondered. First, I know that in older times, the Jewish people made animal sacrifices. When did this end and why? What is the current doctrine on the subject? Did the change happen when the temple was lost?
Also, what is the Jewish belief about the Messiah. Is this still an important part of Jewish doctrine? Is this a being still waited for? I know there are some smaller groups of "Messaianic Jews". How do they fit in? And does Jewish doctrine on these subjects differ in different kinds of Judaism?
