Why always Jewish people are more Intelligent than the others ?

Question

I really want to know ...
Most of them are rich
and smart !

So why many people hate jews ?
Are they jealous ?

Answer 1

Learning is valued that highly. If any other culture put as much emphasis on learning and debate as we do, they'd be just as intelligent. Although it might take them a couple thousand years. ;-)

The skill with money comes out of that emphasis on learning and literacy. It's also an artefact of all of the centuries when Jews weren't allowed to own land or were restricted from certain occupations. Kings and tsars liked to use Jews as tax-collectors, that way resentment was misdirected into anti-semitism.

If you don't know when the next pogrom will force you and your family to flee your home quickly and desperately, then it is just good sense to put your effort into something you will always have with you, your mind and a skill that everybody needs.

Answer 2

Other people are equally intelligent. Hard work and good education are key to success. It is not related to religion. What about your opinion about Germans and other nations having a very high literacy rate. This is also the secret of richness.
Some of the replies given are very disturbing. Differences with Arabs are political in nature. There is no religious issue involved. In one program of BBC (day 24) a question was put to a Jew youngster whether he hated Arabs. He immediately burst out "No,No, no.." This is a reality. People who are spreading hate are enemy of civilization.

Answer 3

In ancient societies, the most educated and intelligent people were the clergy. That means rabbis in Judaism and priests in Christianity. But there's a big difference. The priests are not producing offspring. Meanwhile the rabbis are married and encouraged to produce lots of children. The result, after a few generations, is that the Jewish population gets smarter and the Christian population is dumber.

Answer 4

Its no scientific fact only example of there societies may have lead you to that conclusion. But as hitler saw in them they're unity proved to be a great strength for them they watch out for each others back and help each other invest in there OWN businesses in reality there lifestyles enable them to become so empowered or to us looking on the outside in VERY RICH AND SMART:)

Answer 5

Germans, East Indians, Japanese, and now Chinese are falling into the "intelligent class"--as noted by the previous post, hard work in getting a good education makes up for any lack of any "natural" intelligence--true in any society.

Answer 6

That is a fallacy. I have known some who stupider than the rocks of the Earth. In addition, being rich does not necessarily mean you are smart. Bush is very rich. Is he smart. I doubt that.

Answer 7

Because they are gods chosen people. They are blessed. They also stick together unlike white people. They have a good work ethic, they are greedy, so they dont blow money.
They help each other through school, and take care of their own. They have also gone through a lot over the years, so they deserve it. By the way, I am not a Jew.

Answer 8

Same reason as the Asians -- parents put a high value on a good education and working hard.

Answer 9

i am jewish and i can think of a many people just here on R&S who are smarter than me. as for being successful, its because culturally we put a lot of stress on education and working hard.

1. Glory to ((Allah)) Who did take His servant for a Journey by night from the Sacred Mosque to the farthest Mosque, whose precincts We did bless,- in order that We might show him some of Our Signs: for He is the One Who heareth and seeth (all things).

2. We gave Moses the Book, and made it a Guide to the Children of Israel, (commanding): "Take not other than Me as Disposer of (your) affairs."

3. O ye that are sprung from those whom We carried (in the Ark) with Noah! Verily he was a devotee most grateful.

4. And We gave (Clear) Warning to the Children of Israel in the Book, that twice would they do mischief on the earth and be elated with mighty arrogance (and twice would they be punished)!

5. When the first of the warnings came to pass, We sent against you Our servants given to terrible warfare: They entered the very inmost parts of your homes; and it was a warning (completely) fulfilled.

6. Then did We grant you the Return as against them: We gave you increase in resources and sons, and made you the more numerous in man-power.

7. If ye did well, ye did well for yourselves; if ye did evil, (ye did it) against yourselves. So when the second of the warnings came to pass, (We permitted your enemies) to disfigure your faces, and to enter your Temple as they had entered it before, and to visit with destruction all that fell into their power.

8. It may be that your Lord may (yet) show Mercy unto you; but if ye revert (to your sins), We shall revert (to Our punishments): And we have made Hell a prison for those who reject (all Faith).

9. Verily this Qur'an doth guide to that which is most right (or stable), and giveth the Glad Tidings to the Believers who work deeds of righteousness, that they shall have a magnificent reward;

10. And to those who believe not in the Hereafter, (it announceth) that We have prepared for them a Penalty Grievous (indeed).

11. The prayer that man should make for good, he maketh for evil; for man is given to hasty (deeds).

12. We have made the Night and the Day as two (of Our) Signs: the Sign of the Night have We obscured, while the Sign of the Day We have made to enlighten you; that ye may seek bounty from your Lord, and that ye may know the number and count of the years: all things have We explained in detail.
