Do you now what you earn by calling any group of people “the dumbest group of people on the planet”?
A label.
But, of course, you do not know the name of the label, Hm?
Furthermore, you confuse the creator of the universe with Jesus.
The Jews wrote nothing about Jesus, they care nothing about Jesus and they are no Christians. Find somebody else to blame for Christianity.
As regards the Jews and their writings, they had the courage and the intelligence to transform their oral traditions into the history of their nation.
At that time, my ancestors (ancient Greeks) had just acquired a writing system and they were recording unprocessed raw traditions. How about your highly intelligent ancestors? Did they already possess a writing system and what was that they had been recording?
Why are you still talking to me again? I do not care what the isrealites believe in now, what they cared about then, or what it is you think I actually said. It isn't antisemitism, there were several other cultures two thousand years ago which would have been better for the birth of a mangod who boasted to be the creator of the universe, but instead he came to the desert, where the vast majority of residents were wholly uneducated and highly superstitious. The entire middle east was centuries behind every other culture on the planet. They still are. From the middle east spawned all of the abrahamic religions, Islam, Judaism, and Christianity.
My ancestors were scottish, so around that time i'm relatively certain my ancestors were butchering each other over small squats of land. It is, however, irrelevant to the conversation at hand.
And furthermore, every civilization turned their oral traditions into the history of their people, that's what heritage is. This isn't something unique.
"In our youth, we lacked the maturity, the decency to create gods better than ourselves so that we might have something to aspire to. Instead we are left with a host of deities who were violent, narcissistic, vengeful bullies who reflected our own values. Our gods could have been anything we could imagine, and all we were capable of manifesting were gods who shared the worst of our natures."-Me
