Sad but true.Actually, that may be quite true. Because of the powerful Jewish lobby, the US aids and supports Israel more than it would've normally, and that makes a lor of other nations in the world quite upset.

Actaully I think the Evangelical Lobby shares a good bit of the blame here as well. They support Israel because they believe that all of Israel was given to the Jews by God in the Bible, thusly they support Israel over Palestine. There are some "end of the world" types as well that see the existance of Israel as a sign of Armagedon and the return of Jesus and therefore they are perfectly happy to see a state of Israel.Originally Posted by DarkLadyNyara
Then there's the Jewish Lobby.
I'm not sure, but most people I know my age dislike jewish people. It makes me sad.
That's collectivism at heart. Don't worry. It just means the people who think that are evil.
I've found that most people who claim to hate Jews, have never actually met any. Even in Nazi Germany, the Jewish stereotype that was portrayed before the Germans was of a Jew that they have never met. German Jews weren't particulraly ugly, short, curly-haired or anything of that sort. They were heavilly integrated into German society, sometimes even to the point where they lost some of their Jewishness. Still, the Germans hated the Jewish stereotype, a stereotype they've never encountered.I'm not sure, but most people I know my age dislike jewish people. It makes me sad.

Judaeism is both a race and a religion. As a race, their culture is intricately tied with the religion. Thus, often people refer to Judaeism as both a race and a religion.

No, Judaism is a religion. 'Jew' refers to someone of either Jewish ethnicity or of the Jewish religion (and save a few very rare cases of conversion to Judaism, both go together).Judaeism is both a race and a religion.

I am sure this has been said but
People don't like Jews because they killed Jesus!
While I don't believe that there are so many that do...and its sad.
Bastards!!! Good thing no one has ever been killed in the name of Christianity!
By the way, something that does bother me, though, are some victimist Jewish associations. Same go to feminist associations, both seem to be the great fans of victimization, seeing anti-them conspirations in every damn movie, song, videogame, book or play that appears. Of course, I'm not saying this always happens will all asociations, but when I see asociations complaining about something, they tend to be feminists first, Jewish second. Of course I don't mean this applies to all Jews.
Wasn't Jesus supposed to die on the cross? Then why would anyone be angry at the Jews for killing him? If he wasn't supposed to die on the cross, then he wouldn't be that good a god/semi-god/whatever.
Logic and religion don't mix.Wasn't Jesus supposed to die on the cross? Then why would anyone be angry at the Jews for killing him? If he wasn't supposed to die on the cross, then he wouldn't be that good a god/semi-god/whatever.
Why would they indeed, seeing as it was the Romans who killed Jesus, and not the Jews.Then why would anyone be angry at the Jews for killing him?

Under Jewish law. The Roman law had no problem with him, it was the Jews that demanded his crucifiction, but the Romans that carried it out, as they carried out all punishments. The Romans had control of the area, but they still respected Jewish law--law that called for the crucifixion of a person claiming to be the Messiah.
Ah, I get what your saying. I don't honestly know of that myself. I don't hate any Jews. My friend is one. and you're right. Judiasim is a religion, not a race. most people blame Jews is for the death of Jesus Christ. but that's not true. a lot of people here believe that. People just feel the need to point fingers at other people, so i guess they started on the Jews. But, i do agree with you. you've got my agreement.
