Will Jews and Judaism die out within next few decades?

Yea, it is. LMAO

Again, i'm partial to Jews because they're not interested in spreading their faith. Moreover, they were the only white folks that as an ethnic group were overwhelmingly in favor of civil rights for my people here in the United States...and they didn't just pay that support simple lip service. That means something to me.

Still though, if it gave rise to two religions before, it could do it again...hence my wish that the people remain, but the faith itself goes away.

Religion itself isn't bad, it's the people who have mutilated what religions (and their texts) originally represented. That's probably why you don't dislike us Jewish people as much, because we generally follow what our book represents - and don't use it to spread hate, or take selected passages as literal while ignoring others. I'm not a particularly religious person, but would also never abandon or convert from Judaism for these reasons.

Actually, i think it's VERY bad. Extremely destructive in fact. All of it.

As for Ghandi's quote, boy do i agree with that.

Stalin did it in the name of atheism. Communism = atheism.

Atheism will not only NOT die, but it's very slowly killing off all religion in most civilized First World nations. In fact, churches are empty as hell in Europe, which warms my heart.

The beautiful kicker is this: the more enlightened mankind gets about things like science, technology, art, literature...the faster religion will die off in all but the most backwards places on Earth.

Of course, this won't happen in our lifetime, but in a century or so, even the United States will see a lot more empty churches. And it can't possibly happen fast enough for me.

Who has shaped modern history more so than Freud, Einstein, Marx? Right in the middle of a goy society the Jews not only kept their culture but changed society in a 360 pattern! The Jews have been persecuted in every place they set foot. yet despite this in a short period of time they are blamed for being the leaders of the countries they just landed in intelligentsia, finance and science.

They now have a homeland with 6 million Jews living there. Breeding, dating and making babies with their own kind. In the last 2000+ years they have not had a place to call home, in fact it was world wide German-Russian and American discrimination against Jews that finally made them get their own country.

Jews are the last people on earth who will die out.

Funny in one sentence you call for religions existence to disappear but in the next you give Jews credit for helping your people.

Basically blacks would still be slaves if not for religious conviction. People such as Abe Lincoln, were influenced in their fight for black equality by Christianity and religious teachings. Lincoln was routinely told to drop the war over these "black slaves" but his conviction and belief in religious righteousness kept him going.

Another great example would be Jackie Robinson and how he was the first black ball player.........Im sure if you dug deeper most civil rights given to blacks would have been given at the hands of a Christian doing his Christian duty.
