Never claimed I wasn't an idiot. My understanding is sound. I spent 20 years in a relationship with her and have 3 beautiful children and am still amicable and friends with her family. They are not religious obviously as I am a non-jew. As with any religion the more you get into the religion the crazier it gets. Now obviously there's a lot of nuance but as an idiot I'm also explaining for idiots. Very simply put Jewish people are taught a belief that they are "special" in the eyes of G-d. More than Christians. More than Muslims. Yes you can argue other religions do the same thing but I would argue it's not as codified.

Sure I'm antisemitic. I have a weird way of showing it being the one to force my kids to still do all the traditional stuff and strongly encouraging they visit Israel when they are old enough.

Methinks reading so much out of a single comment on Lemmy perhaps you are the idiot.
