The First Bigots (from an e-list item, 2003)
Girl: "Dad, are Christians bigots?"
Father: "Uhm, not that I know of. Why?"
Girl: "Well, every time my teacher, Mrs. Silvergoldfeldwitz, mentions something about Christians, she tosses in the word 'intolerant.' Like Christians are automatic bigots or something."
Father: "Well, the truth is, of the three main religions in the world -- Islam, Christianity and Judaism -- only one holds a blatantly supremacist worldview: Judaism. In fact, Jews refer to non-Jews as animals." [1]
Girl: "Well, but that is because Christians oppressed the Jews, right? In other words, the Jews were responding to the Christian hatred of them with their own hatred?"
Father: "No, actually, Judaism predates both Christianity and Islam by many years." [2]
Girl: "You mean, Jews were the world's first bigots?"
Father: "Uhhh..."
Tell her, Dad. Jews invented the idea that one group of humans is superior to all others. The Nazis didn't get around to doing that until many centuries later -- and when they did, they based their beliefs on reality, not on sick teachings about money and toilet habits.
[1] "Thus an Orthodox Jew learns from his earliest youth, as part of his sacred studies,
that Gentiles are compared to dogs, that it is a sin to praise them, and so on and
so forth." -- Jewish author Israel Shahak, from his book "Jewish History, Jewish Religion,"
1994, Pluto Press. See it online Here.
[2] some experts date Judaism to as early as 1440 BC and some to as late as 200 BC, depending on various factors; we use 458 BC, following the 1978/1985 book "The Controversy of Zion" by British journalist/author Douglas Reed. Reed uses 458 BC as the beginning of the official "chosen" racial ideology of Judaism, which he calls "the Law" and which he says is the Jewish self-segregation from mankind by design; Reed shows quite clearly that Judaism is outright bigotry against all gentiles; the later religious arrivals are Christianity, which emerged in roughly 30 AD, and Islam, which emerged in roughly 622 AD
