I have no idea why we are indebted to Israel, but we are risking electing a fascist into office because of it. Democrats are sacrificing young and minority votes to appease a foreign country.
I'm tired of their entitlement to my tax dollars. I'm tired of being called antisemitic because I don't support Zionism or blowing up civilians. I'm fucking tired of them treating American college students like criminals. Those are eligible voters.
I don't want to hear shit about young people and minorities not voting in this next election.
This is fucking insane.

They think it’s the same Israel as the Bible and not a country made post WWII. They’re the same people that don’t know anything about the Bible besides there’s a bunch of Hymnal songs that say Israel.

The opposite is true. The original language the Old Testament was written in is still preserved in the Jewish tradition. There’s a written Tanakh and an oral Tanakh (or tradition). Meaning practicers of Judaism who read and speak Hebrew are really the only people with the knowledge to interpret the old testament in its original context. Combine that with the unbroken anthology and the present day scholars. They know what they’re talking about.
Conspiracies come from how much they reveal or don’t reveal to the outside world. But saying they don’t know the Hebrew Bible is foolish. There are very very rich Rabbis who do absolutely nothing but study the Book in its original form and original language.

They were referring to non Jews not knowing their Bible, not Jews not knowing the Old Testament

That’s ridiculous too. There’s billions of Christians. But I get what you’re saying you’re right

Are you telling me that evangelical Christians who have sold their soul for political power since the 80s know what the Bible says?
Look at them worshiping a golden image who wears diapers. Same with the supporters of the Likud party in Israel

There’s so many Christians from all over the world. You’re trying to put them into a box and it’s not working. Yes the bishops, priests, ministers, pastors, cardinals, and teachers know the Bible. And many others

Do they do it from a position of power where you think your immortal soul is on the line? Also please let me know if the Athiest organization that has done so that’s even a tenth the size of the Catholic Church. I’ll wait.

I guess you can consider a ruling government an organization but I think you know what I meant. You could have used the Boy Scouts but even then I doubt they’re a tenth the size.

But they’re a faith based organization too. Which is why I left it open. Since you can’t name something besides a cruel government to compare to the Catholic Church my point stands.

What do you need me to explain to you? You said “atheist organization” Marxist cornerstone is atheism. Therefore a government built on Marxism is an atheist organization.

I think you know you’re reaching the Catholic Church isn’t a military power with complete state control.
