All of his first followers were Jews and many of us beleive in him today. Yes some bad leaders conspired to have him killed, but he was killed by the Romans, under Roman law. Crucifiction was a Roman meathod of execution designed to terrorize into submission. Pilot had over twohundred and fifty Crucifictions under his belt by the time Christ appeared before him. I am not saying they should, but why don't they hate Italians? It would make more sense.

Meow Joseph was a carpenter. All through the New Testoment Christs Apostles, friends, and enemies call him Rabbi. Read the Bible don't just thump on its cover it will change your life.

Finally! Someone has caught on! I've been reading the other answers and I wanted to clear up a few things. Jesus was called Rabbi by some of His followers, but we're not sure if he ever reached Rabbi level. He was very poor.
Jesus wasn't a Christian, and Jesus didn't teach his own version of Judaism! Paul didn't consider himself a Christian either. Jesus taught the fulfilled and purest form of Judaism. Paul recognized that. The term "Christian" was a name used to mock the people of The Way. The Way, of course, is referring to Jesus.

I always have a little trouble with questions like this, because the idea of hating Jews has always been alien to my experience. I never even had any awareness, when I was growing up, that anybody hated Jews. I mean I knew Nazi's did, but I never knew any Nazi's. I have learned a little bit about it from you, though. But, I still have a little trouble understanding why anyone would or even could hate Jews. All the Jews I have ever known have been very nice people. And, I think you are the coolest, and most awesome person I know...and I am really glad that you are my friend!
People are people, and we are all one, and all God's children. So hating anyone, is the same as hating God. The only kind of people I dislike, are mean, selfish and heartless people. But, mean and heartless people come in all races, and all religions, etc!

I don't have any hate for anyone, no matter what our differences may be. Some of my closest friends are Jewish. I dont understand the hate for the Jewish people either. Could the hate stem from the Jewish being God's chosen people? And perhaps that is why the wars over Israel keep going on? I really dont know. I have never had the mindset to hate someone. I dont understand hate at all. . And the thing is even tho the Romans did crucify Jesus, He was crucified because of all the sin in the world. We are all responsible for His Crucifixion. There is alot of hate for Italians too, Im Italian and have had some hate geared towards me for being Italian also. God Bless

Actually, Jesus' death was caused by the Jewish Sanhedrin. These elders went to the Pilot (Roman) in order to rid there world o f this Man who was preaching against there beliefs. In all reality, it was the Sanhedrin (Jewish Elders) who had to take the responsibility. They were the ones, not the Romans. The Romans were just the "Go Between's. See, JC was speaking a different message. He was saying that U didn't need a sacrifice any more.Ect. The Sanhedrin DID NOT like this. This new message would have put them out of business.
So, they go to Pilot and accuse Heresy inorder to get rid of him. Pilot just ordered JC's death inorder to shut them up. So, ya see, Romans may have carried out the actual death act but when U get down to the Nitty Gritty, It was the Jewish Sanhedrin who condemed Him and Killed Him. So, maybe people are not very forgiving and they still blame the Jewish establishment.

I can't talk for all Christians, but all the ones I know, love the Jewish people. I would guess that these ones who hate the Jews, are not true Christians or that they might be ignorant. The Bible says in the Book of Romans, that Christians have been grafted into the family of God which are the Jewish People.

Are you dreaming, or am i the only witness to humanities money-craving society? In this world of competition for attention, power, control, money....etc...etc...where does a real priest fit in? where did they ever? when did they ever?
Noah? Job? Daniel? John Baptist? Enoch? Elijah? Buddha?
Ghandhi? or...oh, no...ADAM?
Jesus of Nazareth's murder comes as no surprise, considering his threat to the economical structure of the people of his environment... they (Jews or Romans, it makes little difference) simply defended their interests, just as they would if he appeared today, bringing with him the same messages and miracles. The skewed truth about his identity and religion is, was, and shall be propogated by the multitudes of competitive wannabees that define 'business'.
God knows this, and has planned for it all along...read
Zechariah 11! Just as Jesus came as the 'Good Shepherd",
so will He return as the "Foolish Shepherd", (and probably escape detection in so doing), and- taking advantage of all the low prices brought about by the endless price wars and the ever-increasing availability of cheap commodities! (a lot like 'Wimpy' did while Popeye and Bluto fought)...all the while ignoring the complaining of society, all because we would not listen, when He came the first time around! If you think I'm joking, look yet again at Revelations 2&3! Even so, I commend your observations, in bringing these things up.

Yes, what Jesus have been before they worshiped Him? He worshiped himself? And for Italy or the Italians, that is way too nice of a place to vacation to hate their people, compared to Israel. I mean, come on!
Seriously though, Jewish people a lot of the time actually follow slightly different customs and celebrate slightly different holidays. And for this slight difference, the main stream Christians hate...well, anyone that is slightly or very different than they are.
As you can see, I'm not a big fan of American Christians, but that is a huge generalization...and there's always more to it.

This is how I would apply my personal spiritual view:
Of those that claim to "love" Jesus, most have not actually reached that point in their relationship to him. I think that to TRULY love Jesus, a supernatural being, you must first master the test of loving ALL your fellow humans. Until a comparable level of maturity is reached in an individual, the creator-follower relationship will be tinged with fear.
Many Christians follow certain rules because they are afraid of being punished, not because they fully realize the reason for the rule's existence. They may not even agree with some of the rules of their own religion. Many times I've heard Christians say something very similar to "If Jesus hadn't preached non-violence, I would kick your ***."
It seems to me that someone that truly "loved" Jesus would be able to comprehend the reasons behind teachings such as love thy neighbor, and fully subscribe to them.

formerly you tell others to make certain The Bible why do not you attempt reading It your self? "throughout the time of the Sanhedrin Trial of Jesus, the severe priests and elders asked Jesus, "Are you the Son of God?," and after he replied, "you're saying that i'm," they condemned Jesus for blasphemy (Luke 1ff1de77405f8da13f42943881c655f1ff1de77405f8da13f42943881c655f:70–seventy one). The severe priests then became him over to the Roman procurator Pontius Pilate, based on an accusation of sedition for claiming to be King of the Jews.[1ff1de77405f8da13f42943881c655f1ff1de77405f8da13f42943881c655f] whilst Jesus got here formerly Pilate, Pilate asked him, "Are you the king of the Jews?" to which he replied, "that's as you're saying." in accordance to the Gospels, Pilate individually felt that Jesus grow to be not responsible of any crime against the Romans, and because there grow to be a custom at Passover for the Roman governor to unfastened a prisoner (a custom not recorded outdoors the Gospels), Pilate offered the team a call between Jesus of Nazareth and an insurrectionist named Barabbas. the team chosen to have Barabbas freed and Jesus crucified. Pilate washed his arms to point that he grow to be harmless of the injustice of the alternative (Matthew 1ff1de77405f8da13f42943881c655f7:11–1ff1de77405f8da13f42943881c655f6)." Wikipedia Christians are the followers of Christ, Jews have not got faith that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, whilst Christianity is predicated on that. finally, might I remind you that the Vatican, the Catholic Holy See, is in Rome (ITALY)?

People are not well educated about that subject. Jesus was born a Jew and followed all the laws of the Jewish religion. The Last Supper was a Passover celebration.
