About all the religious hate...?

No, this is not an "atheist v. Christian" question. Goodness knows that there's too much of that in this community. No, I want to know why Jews are hated.

Throughout history, they've been condemned. They were made as slaves thousands of years back, and were slaughtered in the Holocaust. Why were they the scapegoats? Was the religion looked upon as blasphemy? Was it because the practitioners had a dispute with the churches and were slandered? Or...was it just there? Were they just random scapegoats? If so, be thankful it wasn't your religion. For all we know, the Christians or Muslims could've been massacred instead. Be kind to your neighbors, no matter what religion, race, gender, age, intellect, or ethnicity they are.

    Yah… if only w could change the way we have been taught. If only our religion had not made it a point that we all believe that what is in our faith is the source of truth and that others are but blasphemy… If we only learn to see what is within a person not what **** misconception the world had created about a group of people that person belongs to we would have a better world. Peace be with you…

    According to recent archaeological finds Egyptians didn't keep slaves, they were well fed hired workers.

    I don't think it was right of what happened to the Jews.....but God is the way to go....and if you have him in your life, you'll have such a good life.

    Source(s): I'm Christian....it's more of my personal opinion though

    Agreed...until I get an earful of dogma.
