Excellent Critique of Anti-Jewish Sentiments and Claims

Post by Matthew »

I thought these articles would be excellent reading for any Orthodox Christians who want to hear BOTH sides of the "Jewish Question". The laws of God and the Church instruct us to hear BOTH sides of a case before even beginning to form an opinion. Please consider these articles if you, in general, feel Jewish people are in any way your enemy, simply because they are, in fact, Jews.

Both Unger and Muchnick said that when people begin to understand the vast differences between different types of Jews, rather than seeing the Jewish people as a collectivist monolith represented by a handful of prominent establishment figures, anti-Semitism tends to melt away – at least in people susceptible to logic, facts and reason.

I read the first one you posted, and it's the same 'side' I heard for my whole life until some brave people informed me that the truth is a bit more complicated and goes far beyond simply choosing a 'side.'

The type of disinformation WND produce has become more refined and difficult to deconstruct, it has gone from doublethink to triplethink to quadruplethink, and it's too hard to wrap my head around these days, and so I will say one thing only:

The lie that Christianity is based on Judaism is the greatest heresy ever. As long as someone, in this case, WND, repeats this lie, they are my enemy and forever will be. Do I want to hurt them? Of course not. Do I want other people to hurt them? Of course not. Do I want Christians to stop listening to these liars and start thinking for themselves? Absolutely, yes I do. If people want to be Jews, I don't care, go ahead. If people want to equate my faith with Judaism, I will speak up until they physically stop me.

Judaism is based on Kabbalah and Talmud, which are almost identical to gnosticism, the source of freemasonry, sufism, theosophy, and every other incarnation of the serpent's lie. If you want to defend Jews from persecution, love your Jewish neighbors and don't let hateful people harm them. Supporting lies about the faith doesn't help any one except the gnostics within the institutions that create the labels and categories that people allow themselves to be defined by and fight over until, yes, they hate each other and spill blood.

Spiritual decline equals mental decline. So many Christians, Muslims and Jews now view the world in such a simplistic way, because they consume media unthinkingly, they have become like big blocks of ideas that clash endlessly. Bombs and bullets overseas, culture wars at home. Who benefits? The creators of the paradigm, the media lords. Lets escape the endless hate/anti-hate and start loving truth and freedom. Switch it off, shut it down, have a rest from all commercial and mass media, especially North American protestant rubbish. Go back to first sources and don't judge by appearances or swallow the feel good, feel bad, spin.

I've been lost in endless lies, all my life. Now the Church has shown me, within myself, how this caused me and others so much harm. I have many sins to account for, and hope to find redemption in a peaceful, keyboard commando way. I would love to discuss this further and perhaps this is a good thread to do it. These things are difficult to understand and it takes time and great care and mental struggle to do it. It is also scary and dangerous, but we have the Lord to help us, and the prayers of those who died for Him, and each other.

“(Peter Lalor) knelt down, the head uncovered, and with right hand pointing to the standard, exclaimed in a measured tone: ‘We swear by the Southern Cross to stand truly by each other to defend our rights and liberties. A universal well-rounded Amen was the determined reply.”
– Raffaello Carboni (1817-1875), the author of the main eyewitness account of the Eureka Stockade, writing about the oath taken by Peter Lalor, leader of the rebelling miners, on the 29.11.1854, the evening before the assault by Government troops.

It takes so long to decide to post or not! I tremble, Lord have mercy, I take myself too seriously :)

Everything that makes manifest is light.

Do not be shocked by those who teach new doctrines but seem to be worthy of credence. Stand solidly like an anvil under blows. A good athlete suffers blows but wins. St Ignatius.

Thank you for taking the time to produce a serious response. I personally think that, while much could be said on this topic (in favour of viewing zionists as public enemy number one, as David Duke and his racist and eugenicist KKK friends love to do) I will repeat the old saying, "the road to hell is paved with good intentions." Or to rephrase it, "The road to inciting pogroms is paved with claims of 'truth-seeking'."

We need to see ahead of time what is the fruit of blaming another entire RACE for anything. We need look no further than the Russian Pogroms, Hitler's Germany, and the Spanish Inquisition. Take your side, but choose well. God's TRUTH produces a harvest of LOVE for ALL men, including the Jewish Race, or dear friends, and beloved of God who has not forgotten them, for as St Paul the Apostle said, "Boast not against the natural branches, for he is able to graft them in again."

Two things: Christianity based on Judaism is a heresy? Could you provide the specific Council which proclaimed this a heresy? Thanks.
Arcmode,
You must realize that words have consequences. If you want to defend Jews from persecution, don't begin the persecution by giving ammunition to the persecutors through unproven or unprovable statements that condemn an entire group of people. That you seek the truth is laudable; but a great deal of the information you present is not the truth. It is merely the opinions of people who have evil motives.
You know what a blood libel is. The mere suggestion that Jews in Europe used the blood of Christian children in their matzos fueled hundreds of years of bloody persecution. And, judging by the Palestinian videos I've seen, this blood libel is still perpetuated to this day. It all begins with words.

Agree !
