I don’t get why people hate that particular religion so much.
Me, I would do away with all religions, I think they’re all nonsense invented to control people or as a way to escape from reality, but that doesn’t mean I’d ever hate a religion or go to wild lengths to genocide it’s followers.
People who think there’s a magical man in the sky are a bit batty, but people who persecute others just for believing in magical sky men are truly off their rockers.
My experience is that the hate is for the ethnic group, not necessarily the religion.
Ethnicity and religion is intertwined in this case though, in a way that is quite unique. And which is probably significantly influenced by the way Jewish people were treated.
