For as long as I can remember, I have always believed there is no reason Jews and Gentiles couldn't co-exist and remain in their own cultures. This was something I longed for, worked for, and prayed for. That belief was shattered by one incident.
It all starts with a girl. A girl I met at the local Barnes and Noble book store. We grew to become friends, only calling each other on occasion. Nothing too juicy. Religion was something we discussed often, as our faiths were so important to us in our lives. I am a Jew, she is a Jehovahs Witness. The Watchtower.
I could go into great detail as to what recently happened. When it occurred, I swore it was a violently anti-semitic brainwashing cult and their immature drone that caused all of it. She had changed in seconds over the fact that I was a Jew. Something she had known for the past year.
Apparantly, according to the Elders of her Kingdom Hall, we Jews drew a curse upon us for killing Christ. He went on to say that the proof is in the bible. He quoted the gospel of Matthew: And all the people answered, “His blood be on us and on our children!"
Lets look at this passage, found in the Christian New Testament, with a bit of grey matter. I understand that Christians are taught not to think, but come on! This is obvious. Lets look at the secular reason first.
THE JEWS DID NOT KILL JESUS! THE ROMANS DID!!!
I'm glad that was cleared up. Honestly, though, had those few Jews not killed Jesus you gentiles would be dancing naked under the moon while masterbating with pumice.
You don't agree? Lets explore a few truths.
At the time the Jews were the only ones who had a sin sacrifice. Meaning, if you screwed up we were the way to go. We had a sacrifice for whatever you did.
Second, with the GENTILES performing the actual execution, the Jews were left to oversee it. Interesting how that is alot of the same way our sacrificial system worked. The priests oversaw the execution of Jesus. The Sacrifice YOU GENTILES made for the sins of the world.
Now, the religious side.
“His blood be on us and on our children!"
According to Christianity the blood of Jesus is atonement. Really? Are you seriously suggesting that we cursed ourselves by asking for the blood of atonement to cover us? Again, Christians are taught WHAT to think..as opposed to actually thinking.
I have never experienced such a brainwashing, violent, racist cult in my life like the WatchTower. Honestly, the position these people put me in was so unlike anything Jesus would have done, it only shows how far away from the truth they are. My views are changed forever. I do not believe the christians have a clue about G-d, the bible, or basic life in general.
This incident was actually a very good lesson for my daughter. She saw what a false religion and a false god can do to someone. My daughter will never convert after what she saw.
HaShem has blessed us beyond measure after surviving this incident with the JWs. We are among our own people again. We are taken care of and loved. Warm, fed, and safe. Gentiles, you can take a lesson from us.
As far as Us killing Jesus, let me say this; You're Welcome. You wouldn't have your religion had he lived.
As far as how I feel about how we see each other..well..let Maurice Samuel answer that one.
"You have your way of life, we ours. In your system of life we are essentially without 'honor.' In our system of life you are essentially without morality. In your system of life we must forever appear graceless; to us you must forever appear godless." - Maurice Samuel
