    So which did you read? The Babylonian Talmud, which is incredibly long, or the Jerusalem one?

      Babylonian. It’s where we get to learn about how the Jews view Mary… a whore. And Jesus boiling in excrement. And how to treat goyim/gentile… like slaves. And killing them without consequence. Steal from them. Deceive them. etc… etc… Granted different rabbis, different times… but rabbis are held with high regard. Disrespecting a rabbi, even when he’s in the wrong, is like disrespecting God. As if they’re held in higher regard than the Prophets. Talmud teaches Jews - its practitioners, loopholes, as if they they can trick or bypass God and what He commands of them.

      I know you’re trying to find a way to prove I’m full of chit… but the Abrahamic religions and history are two subjects that I don’t take lightly.

      Mods: This is not anti-semitic. It’s just examples directly from the Talmud. Presenting these examples are not ill intended but simply informative. Take it or leave it, it doesn’t effect me one bit.

        No, no, not trying to be oppositional at all, just interested. Sorry if I made it look the wrong way. I’ve read parts of the Babylonian Talmud, not the whole thing, and I would agree with your points. Not to mention the parts like those where they act like demons are real things that exist, and prescribe a method for how to see them.

        Interestingly, lots of the differences between the new and old testament are also differences between the Torah and the Talmud, eg demons, heaven and hell, interpreting the biblical laws differently (although obviously the new testament takes it much further).
