"Are you Anti-Semitic?"
No, I'm not antisemitic, yet! It is tempting at times.
I am, however, critical of Zionism and Talmudic Judaism. The Babylonian Talmud, Toledoth Yeshu and the Kabbalah are the central dogmatic writings that drive the racism and hatred of fundamentalist Orthodox Judaism.
It is impossible in our modern world to pursue truth and justice without being called antisemitic. According to the fundamentalist Orthodox rabbis, Jesus, the Apostles and the Gospels of love are all antisemitic. So how does one escape the rabbinical charge of antisemitism? One can simply NOT avoid it if one is committed to truth and reality.
This is why I have decided to make friends with the term antisemitism! It has lost the original meaning of those who hate Jews racially and now simply means those whom the Jews hate. The charge of antisemitism has become a sort of litmus test to identify those who speak the truth.
As I said before, my wife is Jewish. I do not hate Jews as a race or ethnic group. Jesus was a Judaean and divine son of God. The Apostles were all Judeans and Benjamenites. Some of my favorite writers are Jewish--Israel Shahak, Mezvinsky, Benjamin Freedman, Lilienthal, the chap from Harvard, etc.
It is not the ethnicity of the Jews that's the problem but a anti-Christian theology and political ideology of hate, arrogance, domination and perversion. |
