Is it true that Jews think Christians are out to kill them? I heard a Jew mention it that way..?
My grandfather grew up with Jews and from the real live stories he told me, they killed Christians with Jews , if you believed in God,you went with the Jews into consintration camps. My family isn't Jewish. My grate ganfathers were persecuted and killed with the Jewish. Jesus Christ was a Jew. He was also written about in Isaiah.. .. why do Jewish put us in the category as the Muslim? And no Hitler didn't kill for Christianity he killed the ones he thought was not evolved leaving only blonde hair and blue eyes.he was a into evolutionism.

There are many Christians who are good people.
And indeed there were Christian heroes who sacrificed themselves during the anti-Jewish persecutions.
But there have also been a substantial number of Christian institutions among whose goals was either to kill Jews (Crusader orders, followers of Martin Luther, followers of Chmelnitzki, Black Hundreds ...)
or to force Jews into conversion and/or kill Jewish culture (a great variety of Christian institutions from the Inquisition to "Jews for Jesus")
Note - insisting on Christian readings of Hebrew scriptures (as you do in your reference to Isaiah) while talking to Jews is often part of a theological mindset and starting point key phrasing of the anti-Jewish institutions within Christendom.

No. Jews do remember though 2000 years of Christian antisemitism which was prevalent in all branches of Christianity, Protestant/Catholic/Orthodox. With the Catholics you had the Inquisition and the accusation of blood libels combined with deadly passion plays in the Middle Ages. With the Protestants you had Martin Luther and his terrible Antisemitism with his deadly tract 'On the Jews and their lies'. With the Orthodox you had the Antisemitism and pogroms of Eastern Europe which resulted in aliyats and escapes, especially from autocratic Tsarist Russia.
So that history has to be remembered and repudiated. The doctrine that Jews are a rejected people(supersessionism) also has to be remembered and repudiated. And active efforts to convert Jewish people and rip them away from their culture, religion, etc also has to be actively repudiated which is what Evangelical groups do when they put up fronts like "Jews for Jesus".

Christians have been a burden to the Western civilisation. Jews were hated by christians because they were rich and hardworking. Jews brought equality, secularism, freedom to the West but the christians justified racism and slavery with horrible verses from the bible. The reason blacks in America are free is because of Jewish contribution to freedom, liberty and equality.

Your knowledge of those of the Jewish Faith is as pathetic as your grammar, phrasing, and spelling.
YOU should fear life ... because your exceptionally lacking education will lead you down a road of abject failure.
