Christian Apologetics: Difference between revisions

Bodian’s course ought to be entitled “Modern Jewish Propaganda: Accusation of anti-semitism for cultural and political control”. Though some Western heterodox innovations in Western Europe do fit the bill of anti-semitism (e.g. the Judan Sow), she essentially argues for Christianity as distortion of Jewish monotheism, whereby abuse of Jews is justified. [[Christian_Apologetics#Alfred_Edersheim|Alfred Edersheim]] by way of much greater historical depth and inspired interpretation shows otherwise.<br>

Bodian ignores all intemperate and indelicate accusations of Jewish Rabbis (Scribes and Pharisees, “lawyers”) against Christians over the centuries as recorded in their Talmud, preferring instead to play pot to kettle’s black. What she doesn’t understand is that anti-semitism, like any form of racial or other hatred, is not Christian, but anti-christian, the sinful product of temptation of humans by the Evil One and his minions, regardless from whom it originates. Neither does Bodian acknowledge that all modern human rights are Christian legacy from upholding of all humanity as created in the image and likeness of God, and therefore deserving of respect and humane treatment.<br>

The same cannot be said for historical Judaism as expounded in the Talmud; there we find that all non-Jews are subhumans, “cattle” (dumb beasts) and therefore not deserving of same respect and treatment required of Jews. In short, Bodian doesn’t acknowledge that Jews are part of humanity, all of which (including Jews) have ”sinned” (fallen out from comm-union with God, the One and only as revealed through Abraham and all other patriarchs and prophets of the Jews).<br>

Jews are not more righteous than everyone else, more perfect fastidious keepers of the Ten Commandments than gentile Christians.<br>

Such “we do no wrong; everyone is against us”, [[wikipedia:Playing_the_victim|playing the victim]] of Jewish Supremacy is racism of the worst kind.
