Who cares what people think about you? Why would you go through life wondering if "people" liked you or not?
We have EVOLVED past this primitive mindset no?
Just treat others as you wish to be treated and your life will be sweet.

There are so many threads here claiming that Jews are evil. As evidence of that evil people show Jews who happen to be in positions of wealth or power. Everybody thinks that having money means someone is evil. I'd like to disagree with this and I`d like to do it at this site where the mentality is just the opposite. I`d like to challenge your preconception of Jews and "TPTB" and suggest that quite a number of Jews are not in their positions because they are evil, but simply because they are smart.
Do these two Jewish guys, founders and CEOs of Google, look evil to you? Or have they gained one of the most powerful positions in our modern world because they are just smart? They look friendly to me. And their Google has been extremely beneficial to Billions of people around the world.
Does Mark Zuckerberg, the founder of Facebook, look evil to you? Or was he just a smart kid when he turned Facebook into the #2 Internet-Site after Google? Is it because he is part of a Jewish-Conspiracy, or just because he has brains when it comes to Business?
What about Steve Ballmer, CEO of Microsoft? On this site you often read that Jews are Khazars, that the Holocaust is made up, that they have money because they are wicked to the bone. To me, this Jewish Gentleman just looks very intelligent, nothing more, nothing less. He does not look like he gained his position thanks to some evil beneficiary.
I`d also like to suggest that a number of non-jews who are in positions of wealth and power or members of the elite are not necessarily there because they are "evil" but because they are either industrious or smart.
Please note that Im not saying all Jews are smart. And Im not saying non-Jews are not smart. All Im saying is there may be something in Jewish Culture, Upbringing or Brain-wiring that makes them susceptible to being Business-Savvy - and that anti-semites turn that into a conspiracy-theory.
But maybe there is no Jewish-Conspiracy. World War II showed that there was a Conspiracy against the Jews.
Please keep the Discussion in this thread nice and cool. I respect your opinions, please respect mine.
Paganism (from Latin paganus, meaning "country dweller", "rustic") is a blanket term, typically used to refer to polytheistic religious traditions, although from a Christian perspective, the term can encompass all non–Abrahamic religions.
