I'm afraid you're all "a day late, and a dollar short"!...
Recently I was reading a major headline in The Hindustan Times, regarding the anger among Indian idol makers resulting from the Red Chinese having completely taken over and replaced the Hindu idol making industry of India.
Lewinsky Stinks, Dr. Brennan Rocks:
Allen, I am a Christian too. I want to encourage you to please not allow yourself to get down. We know that both Scripture and common sense lead us to support the nation of the Bible and that showed the entire world how to have a relationship with God. Ignore the critics; your work and your heart will win them over in time.

I am going to look into the statuary and idol making business. When Bush opens our southern borders full wide and all the Catholic wetbacks come rushing in they will need plenty of idols for all there new homes maybe the Pope will give them a subsidy. The way them Catholics put them idols up inside and outside there homes I will be rich in no time. Now I have to figure a way to make some dollars on the praying to the dead thing. Just joking my Catholic friends I am just trying to prove a point. By the way didn't Richard Nixon like to keep lists. See all the good they did him.

Hate ta break it to ya CJD but your business venture probably won't make a big profit ;D Over half a million illegal hispanics have invaded my city in the past decade, yet there are hardly any new Catholic Churches. Hrmm....maybe if you sold the idols in a package deal with fake Social Security cards...hrmmm that might work

Re: "...They also think their Rebbe is going to rise again. (Ala Jesus)..."
With all due respect, Dawntreader, the Lubavitch concept is the correct one, and it is the Jewish concept which was adapted by those which eventually became known as Christians; not the other way around.
Also, there is at least one Jewish Prophet in the "Tanach" raising the dead back to life, exactly as is attributed to Jesus in the "New Testament" regarding another Jew named Lazarus.
The very ideas of Moshiach, Resurrection of the Dead, Judgement Day, "The End Times", "a New Heaven and New Earth", a "New Jerusalem", etc... are completely Jewish theological innovations.
The actual sad fact, is that the vast majority of Jews worldwide, have no idea what Judaism actually teaches in Torah. I myself was one of those I refer to, until just recently when I took it upon myself to read Torah in depth from cover to cover, and then seek out the answers to the most perplexing passages I encountered.
As to whether or not the Lubavitch Rebbe is Moshiach, I can't comment; having never met him. He was and is spoken of with the highest superlatives by all of his peers who mastered Torah and Jewish Law throughout the world. I do hope and pray that Moshiach arrives soon and sets the world straight!

Massuh did you learn Hebrew first and read it in Hebrew? Or English? I want to read the Torah but not sure where to start or how to go about the whole thing.
