Thank you for posting this. I watched the entire series.
He was brought before the Roman judge, He was nailed to the Cross by Roman soldiers, a Roman soldier pierced His side. All the Jews did was give Him up. Technically speaking. When people accuse Jews of killing Yeshua they don’t know why He came in the first place. Total ignorance on their part for the past two thousand centuries and is still the same today.
My best friend in grade school was Jewish. He has been a lifelong friend, but as he has gotten older he has gotten more and more annoyingly liberal to the point that we don’t get together anymore. I once told a person sitting next to me on an airline flight who for some reason brought up Judaism that the older my friend gets the more he resembles the Jewish stereotypes that he despised as a youngster. It turned out that the guy was a Jewish lawyer and he gave me a ration of crap after that.
We have other Jewish friends. They are almost all liberals.

And despite all that Jesus still said the Jews who turned him over to the Romans had the “greater sin.” Peter says much the same thing in Acts 2.23

Mark Twain explained it perfectly in this piece. Best explanation I have ever seen.
So you continue to blame Jews for killing Christ.
People hate Jews because they hate themselves.
I was merely quoting scripture in response to your incorrect post. I have enough of my own sanctification to deal to be blaming someone else for something that happened 2 thousand years ago. But the scripture says what it says.
Thanks for the link. The Pinker talk is interesting. It’s long, but if you listen to the end, he pretty well dissects a big chunk of modern leftism. Pinker doesn’t push the talk in political directions but the implications are unmistakable. Given his own politics, I wonder if he’s reconsidered any of the views expressed here. (The talk was given in 2002.)
I never figured out Jew hating. Personally, I see not difference between a Jew and anyone else.
Case in point, in the Army I was assigned a room mate. We went out together during off duty time, drank together, and became good friends. One day this guy floored me and asked my why I don’t hate him, I asked why, he said because he was Jewish. I had no way of knowing, he never had it tattooed on his forehead. Finding out this guy was a Jew never affected our friendship.

I had two business partners that were Jewish, and I learned A LOT. One was moderately religious...the other worshipped cash. Both decent guys.
The apikorsim do not speak, act, or represent the Jewish people, despite what they claim.
Judging by replies to your post, it appears no one here saw that hilarious episode of Mary Hartman.
bkmk
Jews invented capitalism didn’t they?
