This question has been asked countless times and it always gets the same results. Some people say "I don't hate the Jews " and some people say "Oh, they "control" all the money" (prove it) and some people don't answer the question and just quote scripture about how Jesus is the one. You know what, as a Jewish woman, I don't care whether anyone who doesn't know me hates me because I'm Jewish. I think they are all just jealous of our achievements and the fact that we are still here after 5000 years and they haven't been able to wipe us out.

First before I try to answer your question I want to say something about your spelling. I know a lot of people are going to criticize you but I think the fact that you asked such a GREAT question and see you with an inquiring mind which is MORE important than spelling anyway. YOU GO GIRL! My boyfriend is a terrible speller and I'm in the gifted program, he isn't. I work with him all the time on that and he's improving. I gave him a page of commonly spelled words that he checks out before he tries to write them. I'm using his screen name so if you go back to the beginning of the questions way way back under this screen name you will see what I mean. I use his yahoo screen pass code now.
Ok, I'm Jewish and personally have never run into any anti semitism. Both sides of my family came from Russia and the Soviet Union and many were the subject of anti semitism. I had a radical side that were comunists but many were imprisoned and murdered because they were Jewish. Before the October 1917 takeover of Imperial Russia by the Bolshevik many were discrimminated by the old government. I have a Great Great Uncle who was kidnapped by the Russian Governmnet in 1905 while going on an errand as a 12 year old boy to buy somethings before the sabbath for his mother. He wound up in the Russian army and in fact became the drummer boy for a Russian Calvary Unit. These elite units were generally not open to Jewish males but I saw a picture of him once in an old family photo and he was a really cute looking boy. I think these elite units liked cute boys as their drummer and mascot but would not risk the safety of Russian boys so used a cute kidnapped Jewish boy. He used to write home but eventually died ten years later during WW1.
I think the thing about Jesus is that the Jews refused to acknowledge Jesus as the Messiah. When Christinity became the state religion of the Roman Empire, the Romans decided to blame his death on the Jews and established the Roman clergy as the governing body of the Christian Religion. The Roman Clergy in fact in fact supplanted the earlier founders of the Christian Church who believed in peace, love, and forgiveness.
I think the biggest source of anti semitism today is in the Muslim world. The Muslims call themselves the "religion of peace" but forgot all about their early history of how murderous their prophet was, his pedophilia (he loved to have sex with underage girls and maybe boys too), and the fact that they even kill each other when their are no Jews around to kill (The Shiites and the Su nnis). They make the early Christians look like "CHOIR BOYS" lol lol.
Oh keep up the good work and asking great questions. I hope you can improve your spelling but don't let that stop your inquiring mind. Your asked a GREAT question.

I don't really understand the relationship between your question and your explanation.
Hatred of jews seems to be a racial thing more than a religious one - although external signs of a religion that is not the majority sometimes seems to be offensive to some people. I'm referring here to the yarmulka, and to side burn curls, for instance, as well as the dark clothing. But in general it seems to be toward the Jewish race. A lot of that seems to be developed by what we now call urban legends "the jews ar all ..... the jews all control ..... etc." A lot of people find it fun to either make up, believe, and|or repeat such stories, because it takes the heat off their own failings as human beings. Then again, so many people are like silly sheep, following the leader.
For someone claiming to be a Christian to be prejudiced against Jews is about as contradictory and illogical as you can get. Jesus was a Jew, the apostles were Jews, every day I read my Bible that was written by Jews. The vast majority of the first million Christians were Jews. As Christians, even if we are not descendants of Jacob physically, we are considered to be, by faith, according to the book of Galatians, spiritual children of Abraham, and according to Romans 11, grafted on to Israel.

This isn't a chat room. Do you really have to write like that?
I don't hate the Jews but some people do because they took land away from Palestinians. They believe that Jews are trying to take over the world for some scary, if undefined, purpose and that they already control major parts of the world in gov't, entertainment, etc. Some people think that they are some sort of subhuman demon-like creatures.
Many Christians believe ANYONE who does allow Jesus into their lives will go to Hell, not just Jewish people.

Suppose that you have two friends. One of them likes sci-fi movies and the other one doesn't. One day you see a brand new sci-fi movie, and it completely blows your mind. It changes the way you look at life, the universe, and everything. You believe that this movie is so good, that anyone who sees it will be changed for the better. So you tell your two friends about it. They both watch it, and aren't particularly impressed.
You will probably be more frustrated with the friend who alreadly likes sci-fi than with the friend who doesn't. The friend who hates sci-fi can be excused for not liking the movie. He just doesn't like sci-fi. But your friend who likes sci-fi will really frustrate you. He likes the genre and many of the same sci-fi movies you do, so how can he not recognize the genius of this film? It really bothers you that he misses the value of it, and perhaps it makes you start to question whether or not perhaps you yourself have overstated how good the movie really is.
The Jew is to the Christian like the sci-fi fan friend. Jews already accept the same basic idea of God as Christians do, but they don't accept Christ. Christians can't accept this. How can Jews not see that Jesus was the messiah? He fulfilled all the prophecies! He died for our sins! They of all people should see that Jesus is The Way The Truth and The Light.
People who follow other religions don't bother Christians so much, because they don't accept the same basic ideas, so their beliefs are not a threat to the Christians' beliefs.
At least, that's my theory.

okay well first of all you say that you know alot of people who are not Christian but are good hearted people right?? well even if they are good hearted people, they still are sinners. there is no one on this earth that has'nt sinned at least once ( infact we all sin everyday.) how many of your friends do you know that haven't done anything wrong in life? the Bible also say's "for all have sinned and fall short of the Glory of the Lord" ( Romans 3:23)but if we confess with our mouth to Jesus that we sinned then he will be faithful and Just to forgive us. and we'll make it to heaven ( as long as we repent.) (John 8.11)(.Luke 23.34.)(1 Timothy 2.3-4)(John 3.17)
so my question to you is ~who does your good hearted friends ( the ones who are not Christians) pray to, to ask for forgiveness when they do wrong or sin?? Because the bible says that Jesus is the only way (Jhon 8;12) ( John 3:16). I hope this helps out. God bless.=)

i think of Jews are disliked by way of fact there's a bigotry it quite is inherent to their faith. the religion can basically be observed if one is born into it. Judaism is very anti-assimilation, and that i think of clearly maximum each physique is often dissatisfied at any team it quite is exclusionary. additionally in some industries, Jewish persons flow out of their thank you to grant promotions to different jews and sense that by way of fact they seem to be a minority it is okay to discriminate against non-jews. The entertainment corporation is a real project section- there's a real loss of selection between people who run studio's and artwork on action picture's and television shows. it quite is totally complicated for minorities (asian, Latino's and Blacks) to ever get on the factor of any severe point positions by way of fact the discrimination starts at even the beginning up ranges.

It's because people believe that the Jews sold out Jesus to the Romans who crusified him on the cross. And also the old sterotype of jews being rich but stingy wiith money, taking "their jobs" I thinks it's stupid, It's mostly because of religion.

Religion is filled with bigots, especially the fundamentalist cults who think that only they deserve heaven. Just ignore that, and live a good life. If there is a heaven you will get there.

Jesus was God... He is apart of the Trinity... he came to the earth as the ultimate sacrifice.. John 3:16 "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only begotten son that who so ever shall believeth in him shall not perish but have everlating life." Christ also said that the only way to God is through him... You can't get to God or heaven without Christ... and believe me the whole Bible say's that! You just have to read it!
