Chavurath B'nei Noach: The Seven Laws of Noah: Courts of Justice
B'nei Noach cannot, under the laws of the land, establish courts that would mete out punishment for transgression of the Seven Noachide Laws.
In this manner, B'nei Noach are observing some of the aspects of this prohibition.

 The acceptance of the Torah
The mitzvot given to the Bnei Noach were given simply as commandments, and their obligation to keep them stems from their being commandments.
Bnei Noach are killed for violating any of their seven commandments, and they are killed whether or not they were warned before the violation occurred.
Bnei Noach lack this unity with their commandments, and thus their intention is worthless until it is actualized in the form of the performance of the commandments.

 Sanhedrin to Establish Bnei Noach Council
The purpose of the council, which was the brainchild of Rabbi Avraham Toledano, is to assist the B'nei Noach in their struggle to observe the word of G-d.
"The goal is to unify, serve and organize all kosher B'nei Noach communities of the world under a single body that can operate under the direct authority and supervision of the Sanhedrin," the decision to establish the body reads.

 Lech Lecha 5758 - Rabbi Gedalia Hochberg
Bnei Yisroel - the Jewish people - constitute one group, and are bound by all the mitzvot and laws of the Torah; all gentiles comprise the group of "bnei noach," and are obligated by the seven mitzvot of bnei noach, with their particular rules and specifications.
The Gemara in Yevamot (78b) teaches us that the nationality of bnei noach [such as, who is considered to be a Moabite, Amalekite, etc.] follows the father, not the mother.
The status of Yaakov and Yosef was Yisroel, not ben noach.

These laws were given to mankind at the time and in the way that was necessary for mankind's survival.
Just as Avraham, and even the sons of Adam and Chavah knew how to offer sacrifices to HaShem, Noach and his family knew G-d and listened to His commands concerning the building of the ark and the saving of a remnant of mankind for the future.
Seven of these laws are incumbent upon all humans because they were given to Noach and his family.

 The Noachide Law of Justice
He claims that if the view of Rambam were correct, then Yaakov himself should have killed the people of Shechem (a Ben Noach who violates one of his seven laws incurs the death penalty in all cases) and certainly should not have rebuked his children for their actions.
According to the view that the word "va-yetzav" (and He commanded) is the source, the law of dinim is merely for Bnei Noach to have a court system, but what laws they enforce will be decided, to some extent, by their sovereigns.
The gemara in Sanhedrin notes that their are various laws of courtroom procedure that do not apply to Bnei Noach, such as the requirement for two witnesses, the restriction against a relative testifying, and so on.

 Sedrah Selections
Since Noach convinced no one to repent, perhaps his merit to live was ancillary to the merit of M'sushelach, just as we find Avrohom entreating Hashem to save S'dom in the merit of righteous people who lived in its midst (Breishis 18:24).
Since in our world Noach was unable to turn the many to the right path, a "tzadik in peltz" as per the Holy Admor of Kotzk, only keeping himself warm, but not affecting others positively, he had to step into a different world to save himself.
Noach would immediately be in need of the ark as a place of refuge independent of the flood.

Parashat Noach recounts the deluge and its aftermath.
Rashi says that Noach was "lacking of faith, he believed but did not believe that the flood would arrive." We suggested that although Noach invested a lot of effort into the construction of the ark, he lost sight of the overall purpose of this project.
Noach firmly believed God's promise of a flood, but he did not live with a sense of impending danger the way he did once the waters began to rise.

As the children of Noach, we are challenged to follow his example of resisting the corruption of our society, walking with God and living with our brothers and sisters in love and peace.
Perhaps the difference is that Adam and Chava lived in a less complicated world than Noach did--they had violence in their family, for sure, but they didn't have to face the pressure of resisting a whole society and its unGodly values.
Noach did; he and his family weren't perfect, but in a society filled with violence, greed, theft, corruption, materialism, and so on, he resisted and "walked with God." (cf.

 The Origins and Derivation of the Noachide Laws
The Bnei Noach (Sons [and Daughters] of Noach) are no longer meant to keep the Laws merely because they were originally given to Adam and then to Noach.
The Bnei Noach are now required to keep the Laws because they are the Will of God for all mankind as expressed in His Torah.

Noach is also told, now by Hashem, the infinite God of mercy and relationship to take "seven seven, husband and wife..." of all clean animals (perhaps those good for the soul, especially the Jewish soul) into the ark (7:2).
Noach later curses Canaan, then sole heir of Cham; his descendants will be slaves of (sometimes) fellow slaves, Godly Shem and expanding Yafes-- the body and its enthusiasts are to be guided by the spirit and its masters toward painful freedom.

Places such as Dallas, Texas are host to hundreds of Bnei Noach and Wendell Jones (the famed archaeologist on whom the Indiana Jones movies were loosely based) even led his church to become Bnei Noach “removing the cross and the New Testament from the house of worship.”
What makes me uncomfortable with this Bnei Noach business, even if it did provide its followers with something to *do* as liora pointed out, is that it's a movement originating with people who don't want to join, as in "Here's a religion that we think would be good for you people, but not for us.
There is another movement besides the Bnei Noach, to call these folks "Ger Toshav," "resident alien," but I find that is just another way to keep them in a separate status.

 [No title]
But underlying these comparisons is often not so much a desire to understand two individuals as a contrast between Noach as the father of humanity and Avraham as the father of the Jewish people.
The term "Bnei Noach" is, after all, the most common rabbinic appellation of non-Jewish humanity.
Noach was the father of humanity, and great nations that arise from him are basically distinguished by their number - seventy nations, the entire world's population.

Welcome, bennoach31! I don't know b'noth noach offhand, but I think there are web sites (and web-rings) for communities of Bnei Noach (iirc, Chabad has been rather active in that area).
Of course, I am not an expert on Bnei Noach so the usual ask your local Orthodox rabbi disclaimer applies (I may be way off, or on the other end even a garden variety Xtain may be halachically acceptable for you- though I doubt you'd be willing to consider getting married to such a person).
It is really sad that there are not ways for B'nei Noach to meet each other because I was just thinking how sad it is that the best we can do is suggest meeting someone who is not Christian.

However, God recognized Noach (from the godly line of Seth) as a tzaddik, a righteous man, and graciously made provision to save him from the wrath to come.
The specific commandments given to bnei Noach (the sons of Noah) are detailed in Genesis chapter 9, but may be summarized as follows:

Therefore Bnei Noach also could not contribute to the yearly half-shekel fund, the "Temple tax" collected from all of Israel, from whose proceeds the Korbanot Tzibur were paid for.
Quoting Zevachim 116a, he continues, "Therefore every Ben Noach may build himself an altar and offer upon it whatever he wishes." However the offering is considered an authentic Korban, only if the altar is artificially constructed as it is written, "And Noach built an altar…" (Bereishit 8:20).

In order to prevent the movement of Bnai Noach from becoming a new religion it is necessary to study the Jewish Sources.
It is remarkable that directly after the national catastrophe in which about half of the Jewish population in Eretz Israel was murdered, these rabbis were discussing the matters of the Bnai Noach, their relationship to the non-Jewish world.
The concept of the Bnai Noach as the Rightous Gentiles was born in the aftermath of the roman genocide.
