What do you think of the Jews?
Favorited (undo) 35 Comments

I am a Reform Jewish girl in America, and while I've seen many people be kind to Jews on the Internet, I've also seen a lot of anti-semitic language which has made me question whether or not I should be proud to be Jewish. Is there a difference between Jews and Zionists, in your opinion? What do you think of the Jews?

I guess I am Jewish by race though my family hasn't been religious for almost a hundred years. I neither dislike or like other Jews as a rule but I do find some Jewish culture interesting like the cooking and language. I dislike Zionists regardless of if they are Jewish or not since I don't see the point. I don't feel all that strongly about it though.

Is it possible to judge a whole race of humans? o_O
I would have to now every single one of them, before I could say anything about every Jewish person.

It's possible.

How? I mean, I know people do it. But why? Perhaps out of ignorance?...
I'm not saying you are ignorant, not at all. Also I don't think you are implying that you do this. At least not in a negative way.

I try not to generalize, because I know each person is different.

Stereotyping/racism often seems to originate at home. A person could have family that hate a certain group and the hate ends up rubbing off on that said person. Sometimes, it can be that someone wronged another person and that other person decides to hate everyone of that specific group.

The "fundamentals" are ridiculous. Ignorance. Misinformation. Stupidity.
It defies all logic.

I never understood If Jewish was a religion or a race? I know it is a religion but is it a race as well?

In the Bible, Jews were called Hebrews or Children of Israel
The terms "Jew" and "Judaism" come from the tribe or kingdom of Judah
"Jew" now refers to all physical and spiritual descendants of Jacob
A person can be Jewish by birth or by conversion
Traditionally, Jewish status passes through the mother, not the father...

You're welcome.

@OP my opinion on this topic is; I like the Jewish religion. If you are a good person, I like you just as much as any other good person. :)

I hate Jews, mostly because they always find a way to draw attention to them selves and their Jewishness. Example: This thread.

We should avoid words with -ist or -ism (or similar forms) suffixes. These only seek to label and divide people.

As a jew and a zionist myself ill tell you. First of all, jew can refer to religion and it can refer to race, it refers to people who are descendents of Abraham. Religion is just like any religion, some are conservative, some are secular, some just dont give a darm. Zionist is a jew who believes that the land of israel belongs to the jews, and that its the jews duty to return to zion (thus the name). Not all the jews are zionists, some are even anti-zionists, such as Neturei Karta. And as for your question, always be proud to be jewish, because if some people hate you without even knowing you, you know you got something to be jealous of. Thats another reason why im a zionist, israel is the only place where you never be hated for being a jew.

I read somewhere that Jews originated from southern Russia and not Isreal like their crazy books say. So to me theyre all fuckin self deceptive liers kicking innocent people off their land.

u ever notice europeans converted many religions such pagans, christianity, jewish, muslim, buhdas, hindu yogi and more. no matter what religion they're in they're still europeans and when there was a war with hitler and they travelled to middle east , they have no right in walking up to natives and killing their same religion because they look like different because they're not white enough ( remember ppl were still racist back then )

and then they push the muslims and christians out . did u know the whole world though it was just a civil war but it was very strange that they insult arab race ? if they insulted religions then thats obvious about territorial reasons but as for saying " u look like an arab " loooool seriously i know u noticed and seen many jews who dont look like their from middle east and always talk about the holocaust about nazis turning pple into soap, lampshades and gloves

so u tell me , would u turn a human being into soap and rub it all over ur body ? and would u believe me if i tell u i jumped over a 10 feet fence into a rail road train ? lol wow " it vws a meracle "

europeans who lied escaped into finding land for their own and a white man cannot come to another region and say " oh u don't exist so this land belongs to me "

oh really ? now all u have to do is listen to a white person and u believe him even though he says the world is flat ? im not against jews or any other religion but i am against westerners who convert and demand a new land. and oh Jesus is not Blonde ! the crusaders killed many who does'nt look like them.

I've seen alot of " Western " pictures that are drawn either blonde with blue eyes and Brown with blue eyes . just start thinking have u ever seen a real middle eastern with brown hair or blonde ? remember why the famous boxer asked wether Jesus was white ?

They are people like anyone else. Race does not determine the worth of a person.

I like and hate people regardless of race, ethnicity, color, gender, etc.

Don't feel ashamed about your religion just because some people didn't agree with it. Be proud of it. I love jewish people, but I haven't met everyone in the world who is. There's a possibility that I wouldn't like some, the same goes with other groups. I can't speak for one group.

A lot of the anti-jew language you hear could be cruel jokes, made and said by people that don't actually have a problem with you.
A lot of Americans are just immature and make jokes about serious issues and events, sometimes it can be funny, usually it's just sick.

I don't care what religion you follow, I care if you're a nice person to know or not.

"I don't make generalizations. Some are nice, some not. They're people." Sums it up.

I have the greatest sympathy for the Jewish people and have travelled to Poland quite a few times to show my family the atrocities of Auchwitz and explain the theft of their homes by the Nazis etc. I think you should be proud of your ancestory as there were many heroes and wonderful people who came to the fore, during that time!

I have no problem with any religion, nationality or colour though - so maybe I'm not the best one to comment.

I see Jewish people as I do any other person. I treat them like a human being, because thats what they are; human beings. I don't see why people are so judgemental of people who's beliefs, looks, religion, etc, might be different... it just seems so fucked up to me. I don't even care. You're jewish... whatever! Thats cool. I'm still gonna treat you the same way I'd treat any other person.

You shouldn't let it bother you either. Some people are just assholes.
