(western) jews know about christianity bc we’re surrounded by it. it’s pervasive in our lives, whether we want it to be or not (we don’t.) we know how it works because, for many of us, we were led to believe that many aspects of christianity were actually universal, or at least part of a common “judeo-christian” (or even “abrahamic”) system that works in the same way for everyone.

we know all about sin, and about jesus, and about god-as-anthropomorphized-dude-in-sky, and many of us didn’t know that those AREN’T actually part of judaism for a long time, since they are SO entwined in “secular” culture.

so yes, most of us are fully qualified to talk about the differences between christianity and judaism, since one is our religion and the other is forced on us in every conceivable way.

this does NOT mean that christians have the same ability to talk about judaism, since the majority of you don’t know a single fucking thing about it that’s actually true, because why would you?

Not to be atheist on main but the entitlement of some Christian missionaries in this day and age is astounding. After all the international trauma and destruction they’ve caused spreading their mind poison to various groups of people throughout history, namely my own African American ancestors via slavery and the indigenous Americans, they’re STILL seeking people out to continue the cycle like the year is 1818 instead of 2018. Here’s to hoping they get an arrow to the jugular from now on if they keep trying it and that’s that on that. 🍻

In Mormonism it’s basically required you go on a mission and it’s weird if you don’t please don’t hurt them they’re not trying to enslave people and sometimes they barely even understand what they’re doing. There’s lots of stories abt missionaries going out with no faith in their own religion.

Just shut your door on them if you don’t want what they have.

How about yall tell those brain rotted zealots to stop proselytizing people they think they can exploit instead of telling the rest of humanity to turn the other cheek. Ignorance or a lack of understanding is no excuse (which is a lie, they know what they’re doing) for their continued manipulation. They can go on a mission on THESE NUTS.
