Call me crazy, but I'm convinced that anti-Semitism persists so strongly because it is a form of revolt against God. The Jews are the messengers who brought us God's blessings (and His standards). Killing the messengers is a way to get at the Source. I know it isn't rational, but that's the point. Rebellion against God and his ways is emotional and insane.
Anti-Semitic societies unravel because they are societies that, over time, foster chaos and the will to power above all else.
Excellent spiritual insight!

Cookcounty, you are exactly right in what you wrote in the above quote. More than you may know. Spot-on and right-on.
Ping to my usual list for cheers to another good FReeper!
