First of all, I don’t go by the KJV bible, I go by the Douay Raimes version.

Second of all, I don’t think we had anything against the Torah (far from it, the guy who wrote that blog went out of his way to state that the Old Testament was still very much relevant to Christian teaching, and that Christianity owes much for the Jews), but at least in my case, I have lots of things against the Talmud (which is NOT the Torah despite what Rabbis claim, but a mockery of the Old Testament). One particular irksome aspect of the Talmud, arguably much worse than even how Jesus and Mary were outright demonized in that text, was how they treated God the Father, or if you prefer, the God of Abraham, since they’re one and the same, in Babylonic Talmud Bava Metzia 59b:

“We learned elsewhere: If he cut it (this new special stove) into separate tiles, placing sand between each tile: R. Eliezer declared it clean, and the Sages declared it unclean; and this was the oven of ‘Aknai (which means “serpent,” probably named after either the inventor or because long serpentine pieces of clay were used to attach the separate tiles).....

It has been taught: On that day (of the discussion about the new Aknai oven) R. Eliezer brought forward every imaginable argument, but they did not accept them.

Said he to them: ‘If the halachah agrees with me, let this carob-tree prove it!’

Thereupon the carob-tree was torn a hundred cubits out of its place; others affirm, four hundred cubits.

‘No proof can be brought from a carob-tree,’ they retorted.

Again he said to them: ‘If the halachah agrees with me, let the stream of water prove it!’

Whereupon the stream of water flowed backwards

‘No proof can be brought from a stream of water,’ they rejoined.

Again he urged: ‘If the halachah agrees with me, let the walls of the schoolhouse prove it,’ whereupon the walls inclined to fall.

But R. Joshua rebuked them, saying: ‘When scholars are engaged in a halachic dispute, what (right) have you to interfere?’

Hence they did not fall, in honor of R. Joshua, nor did they resume the upright (position), in honor of R. Eliezer; and they are still standing thus inclined.

Again he said to them: ‘If the halachah agrees with me, let it be proved from Heaven!’

Whereupon a Bat Kol cried out: ‘Why do you dispute with R. Eliezer, seeing that in all matters the halachah agrees with him!’

But R. Joshua arose and exclaimed: ‘It is not in heaven.’

What did he mean by this?

Said R. Jeremiah: That the Torah had already been given at Mount Sinai; we pay no attention to a Bat Kol, because You have long since written in the Torah at Mount Sinai, “After the majority must one incline.”

R. Nathan met Elijah (the prophet) and asked him: What did the Holy One, Blessed be He, do in that hour?

He laughed [with joy], he replied, saying, ‘My sons have defeated Me, My sons have defeated Me.’”

That last portion really irked me due to that passage making an utter mockery of the guy who got your sorry butts out of Egypt, making him such a weak dullard that he ended up forcibly restrained by the Rabbis to such an extent that he can’t even so much as take a leak without a Majority Vote by the Rabbinic Council, not to mention outright LOSING a debate to Rabbis, who religious leaders or not are STILL mere mortals compared to Him, an omnipotent and more importantly omniscient individual who in reality would have outright CREAMED those Rabbis in a debate to such an extent that they’d be huddled in a corner crying and deeply broken, not celebrate that they defeated him. I would have thought that you guys would have at LEAST had enough respect for God the Father to NOT try to make him into a weakling despite, no, precisely BECAUSE He’s an omnipotent and omniscient being. In other words, God would never even conceive the possibility of being defeated by ANYONE, let alone admit to it. But no, you guys couldn’t even do that. I’m actually quite surprised Nicholas Dorin didn’t expose THAT passage to the heads of the Church at the time, or at the very least the Church heads didn’t focus on that passage, because I certainly thought that passage was objectively worse than their making Mary out to be a whore and Jesus the son of a centurion who’s boiling in hot excrement. All I can say is, if I were in God’s position, and you guys pulled that crap on me at Mt. Sinai... well, let’s just say I’d decide AGAINST making you guys the Chosen People after that. Probably act like Kefka here: https://youtu.be/I-cdwDnryY0?t=123

And if anyone wants to find this passage, this link has it, and it’s helmed by a Rabbi, no less: http://www.angelfire.com/ak5/salafi/RabbiDebateGodAndGodAdmitsDefeat.htm

Besides, when the likes of Rabbis Harry Waton and S. Wise outright stating that Marxist revolution was fully in line with the precepts of Rabbinic doctrine, the latter stating it specifically in The American Bulletin, May 5, 1935, that alone leaves Rabbinism to be suspect. Bear in mind that Marxism was created specifically to recreate the WORST aspects of the French Revolution and make it even gorier.
