Jesus of Nazareth existed. The academic opinion behind people who study this period of history outside of the Bible are fairly unified on this. You have a few outside opinions from a few lone voices but the majority of people who study this stuff seem to believe Jesus was real based on the...

I was in a "discussion" where an anti-Semite accused Jews of creating both communism and capitalism to control the world 🤔

They'll probably do two versions. One that's inner robo accurate and one that's shell accurate

A lot of Jesus' story makes sense when you look at it for what it is- a political movement in a very polarized region of the world. Let's refocus. Judea, 1st century CE. Rome occupies, but retains local Judean authorities in a puppet state kind of deal. King Herod is nominally King of Judea...

That's just... incorrect. Judea was a puppet state of the Roman Empire meaning it nominally maintained its own government in the form of the monarchy (King Herod) and the High Priesthood. And strictly Jewish affairs were the realm of these authorities. And Jews had their own means of capital...

The mistake you run into is that you assume because Jews do not have faith in Jesus they must not have faith. I have faith. I have faith in a lot of things. Jesus' divinity isn't one of them. If it is for you, then I hope that faith serves you well.

St. Paul lived ~250 years before Constantine and if you read into what he did... yeah. It's not.. um... great. ofc. We have more historical documentation (extra Biblical that is) for Jesus' existence then we do Hannibal's. Jesus of Nazareth was a real person, that much is certain to anyone who...

I'm going to assume you're Christian based on some of your other postings. And as a Jew, I will attempt to answer your questions. I will try to do so in as respectful a way as possible to your own faith. Jews don't believe Jesus was the Messiah because according to Jewish theology Jesus did...

I'm sure all the dead people appreciated that.

Oh you sweet summer child. This was clearly a mistake.

I'm going to guess, based on how you've acted in this thread, that you're on the younger end. And there's nothing wrong with that, but a big thing people need to come to terms with as they leave childhood and enter adulthood is that the world does not, and will not, conform to how you think it...

You can draw a line straight from this to the Nazis.

Then account for the over thousand years of Christians persecuting Jews.

Satan in Judaism is G-d's asshole lawyer. His job is to basically point out all the bad things in your life so when G-d judges you He judges everything about you. The idea is that no one is perfect, no one is all-good, and that G-d loves His creations, so maybe He has a bit of a blind spot for...

Well he called Nazis "very good people" so that one's on him. You think he wouldn't have done that if his Jewish family members mattered to him. I don't know if you're aware of what's going on in Israel right now, but a lot of Israelis don't seem to like Bibi. Much less Jews the world over. I...

That actually works if you view RiD, G1, and Armada as connected. 'cause Dark Scream had a sword made from his tail. And once he gets his Starscream body back... he's got a sword.

This better have a BSG Crossover figure.

Raksha... that's a name I haven't heard in a long time. A long time. Thing is... funnily enough... she kind of got what she wanted? Her whole thing was that the Decepticons were put-upon good guys forced into war by oppression from the Autobots, who were secretly bad guys. Well IDW1...

The big rumour I remember back when Armada was announced was that it picked up after Rebirth, which explained why Megatron had seemingly Scorponok-inspired design elements. He even had a Scorponok-esque colour scheme. The rumour being floated is that when Galvatron and Zarek fled with the...

I'm sorry people are having fun, Joe.
