No, and neither is Islam, nor Judaism. Thousands of years ago, violence against those who didn't believe in the same stuff you did was acceptable and the norm.\n\nBut the thing is, America and Europe realized this (around the time of the Renaissance), and made their governments and society more secular. Islam never did, and thus they still cling to the notion of "We're offended by your cartoons depicting us as violent! Burn and die, infidel scum!"

Jewish people do discuss their opinion on the immigration issue.  I don't live in the United States at the moment so I'm a bit out of the loop on this issue, but I tend to be very compassionate towards illegal immigrants.  I think it's important to remember that we were all created in the image of G-d, that all people are entitled to live with dignity, and that we should try to think of what is moral and what is just, and then make that into a legal reality.  Sometimes laws are not just.  One of the central ideas in Judaism is that it's our duty to create a more just world.

It's ironic that so many anti-Semites consider themselves good Christians, isn't it. Thanks for a brilliant post.

It is more of a culture/religion. Judaism is the religion and Jews are the culture that go with it. They have their own customs as with any other culture or nationality. One thing, you cannot change how you are, but you can worship any way you want.

The Jewish people have been quite successful in surviving many centuries of hatred, prejudice and the Holocaust. And maintain an unproportionately high role in society. There are only about 13 million Jews worldwide, about 1% of the total population.\n\nAs a good guideline to a healthy and prosperous lifestyle, I feel the Jewish culture is one worth passing on down to ones children.

Read the book Judaism for dummies which is written by a rabbi and peer reviewed. My local rabbi bulka wrote a book called religion from A to Z whch was meant to be generic but had jewish slant.\n\nIm not jewish but doies not prevent me from respecting other faiths..

Yeah, you're right. We should show more respect. Now since the title "God" is the highest, why not just call God as God God? Or God God God? Or better still, God God God God God God .........

I totally agree with how you feel here. I believe that people should (learn to) respect one another, no matter how different we are. And we ARE created to be different!!! And differences SHOULD be respected and tolerated. I also think that people should stop harrassing others just because they are different. This applies to EVERY case.

I think I understand where you are going there.  My timid answer is 'yes'.  You may be sympathetic to the Jewish cause, but know that Israel (back then there was no Israel) is a pawn in the American military that causes more strife than it's supposedly worth.  \nJust know that Israel is located VERY strategically in the middle east, ok.  While we, as modern day Americans, think that Palestinians and Jews should just get along, there are big religious problems there.  We're Americans, we understand that.  Both sides deserve to occupy land they consider to be holy and to live in peace with each other.  The issue is, they consider the same land to be holy for different reasons.  That is why America is there.  Americans revere Jerusalem as Jews do.  So, we pretend that we support them when in actuality we are there to police the middle east.

i support zionism.  everybody deserves a home, but where can the jewish people go?  now they have Isreal, so they should keep it.  but that land was arab land, taken from other people.  who has the right to decide who gets what land? well, mabey superpowers :).  i am truely happy for the jewish people that they finally got a place to call home after thousands of years of hardship and opression.  i hope Isreal lives a long and prosperous life as on of the only civilized countries in the Middle East region.

I have no problem with any religion, I dont agree with all of them, but I dont dis on any of them, God made us belive what he wants us to believe in. The Jews were great people and if you actually talk to one from the Holocaust youll want to cry This guy came to my school when I was a senior, and gave a speech, I went just to get out of class and was so suprised by what I heard, They are amazing people

Every Jewish person I have met has been different. They are always extreme characters and I rarely meet one I don't instinctively like or admire. I have met them both in Israel and the United States, and I can tell you for a fact, that our world is a better place for having them around. I am glad the United States is still an allie with Israel. They are indeed God's chosen.

Do you have high integrity, respect and genuine appreciation for your fellow human beings?

I don't hate Jewish as Jewish, they're a religion group such as all others, but I hate controlling the western media and money world, I hate what the Zionist did in Palestine, the same I hate what the Spanish did in the new world, what America did in Vietnam and Iraq, what Bin Laden did in 9/11, it's about hating evil, not about being a bigot, which is the reason why some people hate the Jewish for..

Ken Livingstone tried peddling this garbage the other day, saying Britain was treating Muslims like Germany treated Jews in the 1930s. PLEASE! Did German Jews blow up buses? No. Have Jews in this country made an effort to integrate? Yes, and they have had an impact on this country far greater than their small number would suggest possible. Jews in Europe and Britain were not seeking to subvert western culture, while an increasing number of Muslims hope to see their religion rule us all. There was no reason to fear Jews, who owe their success to industry and energy. There is good reason to fear the increase of an aggressive, alien minority seeking to subvert our values and who don't respect civil laws.
