The Catholic Church stole at least 300,000 Spanish babies and still faces trials because of its crimes to this day.

This is all coming from the guy that said real Jews were all psychopaths not so long ago...

Why are "Jews" "Jews" then.

Are you a follower of Christ?

No, I believe the figure of Jesus is simply a deification/mythological character based on Julius Caesar:

Constantine eventually took the figure to make Christianity the main religion of Rome, with the whole thing being his psyop. Then the Jesuits came along and corrupted Catholicism a lot further with their neo-platonism etc...

I honestly don't get why so much people place so much value in the Christian and Jewish holy books. The story of Enkidu and Gilgamesh predates both by a long mile, we've been around for far longer than any of these clowns. Well, I actually do, the power of the Vatican comes from them. I myself am an agnostic. I also like to practice some of the ascetic traditions of the "Santeros", but I still mostly do my own thing.

A deification of Caesar? Polycarp was killed by Caesar and the Romans for simply following Christ and calling himself a Christian.

Quote from Come-and-hear.com:

There is no doubt that Jesus of Nazareth and the Pharisees had a violent dislike for each other. This point has been a delicate one between Jews and Christians ever since. The tension, however, provides a good object lesson on the use of euphemisms and code words used in the Talmud to censor or obscure the meaning of the text.

(Unless otherwise indicated, in the following excerpts we have omitted the Soncino footnotes. To study the footnotes and the full context, follow the link below the excerpt.)

Let us look at this short excerpt from Tractate Sanhedrin. Speaking of a character called "Balaam," a Sage states:

GEMARA. … He practised enchantment by means of his membrum.

In the opinion of many modern rabbinical scholars, "Balaam" was often used by the Sages as an alias or code word for Jesus of Nazareth. For example, consider this statement about Balaam from the prestigious Jewish Encyclopedia:

Henceforth he became the type of false prophets seducing men to lewdness and obscene idolatrous practices (Rev. ii. 14; II Peter ii. 15; Jude 11; Abot. v. 19). The name 'Nicolaitanes,' given to the Christian heretics 'holding the doctrine of Balaam' (Rev. ii. 6, 15), is probably derived from the Grecized form of Balaam, [Hebr. char.] = [Greek char.], and hence also the pseudonym given to Jesus in Sanh. 106b and Git. 57a.

The Jewish Encyclopedia's article on Jesus contains much information about various pseudonyms used for Jesus in the Talmud, including "Balaam," "son of Pandera," and "Ben Stada."

Why would the Sages use a code word for Jesus of Nazareth? Perhaps to avoid confrontations with the Christian establishment. By disguising unflattering remarks about Jesus, only those inside the circle of Talmud believers would understand; Christians, if they ever saw the material, would miss the significance. An example is given by Rabbi Rodkinson in his book, The History of the Talmud. In 1239 A.D., Jewish apostates brought charges in Rome that the Talmud contained sacrilegious sayings about Jesus and His mother. Rabbi Jechial answered the charges (in part) by denying that the Talmud contained any mention of Jesus of Nazareth:

To the other accusations of Donin, that the Talmud terms the followers of Jesus Christ "Minim" (infidels), that it condemns Jesus, that it allows ill-usage of people of other nationalities, etc., he [Rabbi Jechial] replied: "In the Talmud there is no mention of Jesus (Jesu) Christ, but only of another Jesus (Jeshua) who was a disciple of R. Joshua b. Prachia, who lived two hundred years before Christ."

— Rabbi Rodkinson

In a footnote, Rabbi Dr. H. Freedman promotes scholar Rev. Dr. Herford's view that the "harlot" is a reference to Mary, mother of Jesus.

Herford, Christianity in the Talmud, p. 48, suggests that Balaam is frequently used in the Talmud as a type for Jesus … Though no name is mentioned to shew which woman is meant, the mother of Jesus may be alluded to, which theory is strengthened by the statement that she mated with a carpenter.
