The website of "Veterans Today" had an interesting article on the "Talmud". It seems this document refers to gentiles as dogs and animals whom it is ok to deceive and lie to...the Koran has the reference of infidels for gentiles and non believers...what are your thoughts out there on this subject?
While there appears to be a lot of condemnation of the violence in the Koran, the Talmud seems to go even further in this respect, and is actually a sickening document, in it's reference to Gentiles...anybody out there bothered to read some of it?
I would like to see what you're referencing with regards to "violence" in the Talmud. There is no doubt that the Talmud refers to gentiles as dogs so does Christ. As far as deception and lies go, I would say a more accurate description is that they are already deceived and therefore they are simply deceiving themselves. For example. A Jew may charge interest to a gentile. This was mandated by God as an instrument of war to destroy the inhabitants of the Promised Land as the Isaelites moved in. It is an evil thing to engage in usury against your brother, but for those who are already degenerates it makes no difference to the Jew because they are doing them a favor. Those who are deceived do not have the ears to hear the truth. They don't want to hear it. They just simply want to be degenerates. There is nothing wrong in entering into a mutually beneficial voluntary agreement. The degenerate gets what he wants, or at least what he thinks he wants, while the Jew is simply relieving the degenerate dog of his money. Think about it; what use does a dog have for money in the first place? A dog doesn't want to hear that borrowing money is foolish; he just wants his money. Under the New Testament dispensation one would think that we should look at everyone as our brothers in which case usury would be something that a Christian wouldn't engage in at all. For some reason this isn't the case though. Instead the reasoning is that we can engage in usury with everyone.
Similarly when a Jew slaughtered an animal improperly, or perhaps found a clean animal such as a sheep or goat that had just died, he could not eat it, but he could give it to a gentile. In the New Testament a gentile who converted to this new sect of Judaism could not receive an improperly slaughtered animal anymore. However, it doesn't state that any other gentiles couldn't still benefit from this practice. I say benefit because gentiles were going to eat this anyways. A Jew couldn't eat pork, shellfish, catfish, etc., but if he were to discover some swine on his property he would want to get rid of it asap, and the only person he could really depend upon to come and pick up his garbage was a gentile. So it's a win/win situation. The Jew gets free garbage disposal while the gentile gets a free meal. Gentile converts were also instructed to refrain from fornication and idolatry as they did when they were degenerates. So the Christian scriptures still continue to look at those who have not joined the fold as degenerates.
And yes, I've read more than my fair share of the Talmud.
