Israeli journalists can’t really say anything else…
In one notable incident, the ultra-orthodox leftwing journalist Israel Frey posted a video saying Kaddish (the Jewish prayer for the dead) for the victims of the Hamas slaughter and Palestinian civilians under fire in Gaza.
Soon afterwards, an anonymous user of the Telegram messaging platform published his address, which was shared widely by rightwing groups, and a mob turned up outside, lobbing fireworks at his windows, forcing him to flee with his family. He is now in hiding.
They’re racist against the actual Palestinian race Jews that lived there for 100s of years because they look like Arabs and not like the European jews. They probably think Mozes was a white dude.
israel is such a massive racist hypocrisy meme that movies that made me go “wow that’s completely unrealistic humans would never be that stupid” now makes me go “yeah that makes sense”.

The point is that every religion has problematic shit, because when they were made up society was less developed then now.
And back then when a new religion showed up, the major one usually tried to stamp it out with violence. So any new religion that wasn’t also violent, got wiped out pretty quickly.
The problem with religion is the tiny percentage who are far right extremists insisting that rules from over a thousand years ago need to be followed by everyone, and exactly by their interpretation. Not the vast majority who take the general message but understand shits changed since it was written.
Like, you get that right?
I thought I was being clear, but lots of people don’t seem to be getting it…
That’s crazy how Jainism is still around then with tenets like non violence.
Anyway, I wonder if you realize you just implied that the far right extremists of any given religion are interpreting their religion correctly (i.e. closer to the original author’s intent) by virtue of being violent.
Like I said, it’s fine to just say a religion is morally bankrupt.
Society was no less developed 3000 than it is now. When you look at “modern society” they are no better than the Nazi’s in 1940 standing right behind another genocide for decades. Our society is morally bankrupt.
Humans are humans. Humans have not changed. We have funny phones and clothes now, but our hands brains and eyes are exactly the same as 3000 years ago.
Its quite blatantly obvious nobody who comkits atrocities in the name of the text actually reads the texts. If they did they wouldn’t find time to do the atrocities or generally spread chaos.
“Fight those who do not believe in Allah, nor in the latter day, nor do they prohibit what Allah and His Messenger have prohibited, nor follow the religion of truth, out of those who have been given the Book, until they pay the tax in acknowledgment of superiority and they are in a state of subjection.”
Isis and Hamas are literally doing what their holy book tells them to.
I’m open to other interpretations of what that verse means but it seems pretty clear to me.
As for the polytheists who have honoured every term of their treaty with you and have not supported an enemy against you, honour your treaty with them until the end of its term. Surely Allah loves those who are mindful ˹of Him˺.

So they’re now doing pogroms on their own people.
They’re racist against the actual Palestinian race Jews that lived there for 100s of years because they look like Arabs and not like the European jews. They probably think Mozes was a white dude.

Wow, attacking Jew, that’s very antisemite.
Reminds me of what happened to the teacher who shared the cartoon of mohammed.
The problem isn’t any of the religions, it’s the far right extremists.
That’s why their actions are so similar, the religion honestly doesn’t matter at that point
Religion is just one of the tools used by fascism. Another lever of power to be bent and broken to ensure absolute control.
religion itself is a fire accelerant
Have you… read any of the texts?
It’s okay to say some of the shit in these religions is morally reprehensible on its face and not just because someone is interpreting it wrong.

Wow, an example of a religion made up primarily of isolated monks that make up about 0.05% of world population…
Weird how that’s the most common example you could think of.
But I’m not getting into a slap fight about this. Which seems to be what your looking for, so you might get want to look elsewhere
Na I think you just realized you accidentally argued the problem IS the religions.

This verse is about going to war with people who broke a peace treaty. You skipped the parts before that.
