[QUOTE="Sanity, post: 2648761, member: 574654"] Christians are good in propagating all the falsehoods about Judaism. Christianity selectively picked some verses from Isaiah, Jeremiah and Micah and distorted the messages to falsely claim that those are prophecies of the messiah (Jesus) when the fact is that those verses are about the redemption of Israel. In Judaism, there is no such thing as original sin (from Adam and Eve), but Christians distorted the Adam and Eve story to claim the 'downfall of man' and justify the claim of the 'need for redemption by sacrifice'. This contradicts YHWH's words that he does not need sacrifice. Moreover, Judaism is both a way of life and the philosophy of how one conducts oneself - primarily behviour (actions) over belief, whereas Christianity is about belief over behaviour (actions). The historicity of Jesus is backed up by absolutely no evidence. Jesus is not mentioned in Romans records nor Rabbinic records. Neither did Philo (supposed to be living in the lifetime of Jesus) mention about Jesus though Philo wrote 30+ manuscripts (containing more than 800,000 words) on god and on Jews affairs. The gospels were not written by disciples or eyewitnesses as the gospels were written pseudeponymously (writers of unknown origin), and furthermore, these gospels were written after 70 AD, and according to Papias, those accounts were from 3rd or 4th hand of somebody heard from somebody who heard from somebody. What is plainly obvious was that someone with knowledge of the Old Testament weaved a story (likely a mythical figure) around the "claimed prophecies" of the messiah and built it into a "life and blood" character that existed in the early part of the first century. Matthew errer in his claim of (Matthew 2:3) that the prophets proclaimed the 'one born in Nazareth and that he shall be called a Nazarene.' Such a claim can never be found anywhere in the Old Testament. Moreover, the account of the massacre of innocents (babies) by Herod never took place [not recorded in any historical records nor by Josephus], and that Herod died in 4 BCE. Therefore, it is another claim in the bible that does not match up to actual history. How could Jews kill a mythical figure? But the excuse had always been used in history against Jews: by Martin Luther (On Jews and their lies) and by Hitler when such people wanted to stir the emotion/hatred against Jews. "Jews are greedy" was a situation forced by Christendom Europe. For refusing to believe a lie and to convert to a belief the Jews knew to be a lie, the Jews were persecuted all over Europe from 4th century AD till about 1100 AD, when these Jews were able to settle at a safer sanctuary in Poland. The church set rules that Jews could not be employed, and that forced Jews to make a living through renting or through money lending (pre-cursor of banking). Forced from such circumstances, the Jews stick together as a community, and also to use whatever means necessary to survive through the hostile hardship. Culturally, the Jews stood together as a people and became more innovative at money-making - never giving up an opportunity because of the harsh conditions imposed upon them. [/QUOTE]
