An old Jew eventually dies of old age and goes to heaven. He meets God and tells him a holocaust joke. And God says “That’s not funny”. And he says: “I guess you had to be there.”

(I like how philosophical the joke is, heard it from Ricky Gervais.)

    And a whole classroom of kids getting gunned down is god’s plan and not something that can be stopped with common sense laws like the rest of the world has.

    How can anyone still believe in that shit. The same people freely give away 10% of their income to a charlatan and believe Trump is god’s choice of a leader. I’m afraid you picked the wrong community if you wanted this conversation to be casual. They have a fucking book with a selfless hero that tells them exactly how to live and they IGNORE IT ALL!

        Wouldn’t do any good. An organization built around raping children for centuries is still going strong. Good Christian morals tho

      Considering the actions of the Israeli government grotesque, and hating Jews are not the same thing.

      You don’t have to be callus or confrontational every time people mention jews or the things they’ve been through as a minority community.

      I get you’re angry at the injustices of the world, but it doesn’t help to paint an entire minority group with the brush of a genocidal government just because they’re loosely associated.

      Let me give you all another reason to downvote me. Religion has been one of the most destructive forces of society. Causing countless deaths, genocides, torture. Removing all civility from humanity. “Christians” elected one of the worst presidents twice. Even the pope threatened to excommunicate Biden for standing up for women’s rights. The world would have been better off without religion.
