As I said in a PM the Israelites are just people trying to survive and make more of themselves just like everyone else. I had a drunken rant about the Sanhedrin whom, at the time, I considered to be responsible for the death of Jesus. Now I'm not so sure.
Largely I consider the Israelites to be totally irrelevant to western culture and suspect instead that western degeneracy has more to do with ancient, local customs and belief systems revolving around celebration of mid-winter, paganism and the symbolism of the sun setting in the west. I suspect that the prophecy of revelations has only worsened the situation amplified by how unhappy many westerners are with their own culture.
Considering that Christianity had to adapt to local beliefs and practices to be accepted and spread I consider "the Jews" largely irrelevant to the state of western society.
Though I am open to considering alternative opinions if anyone has any to provide?
Laying flat.
