Why are Jews the only major religion that doesn't try to recruit new followers?
Keeps the slices of the pie small while the pie grows larger
>>17273313They have christianity and islam for that
>>17273313They did in the ancient world, and they stopped after the destruction of the Second Temple, at which point it slowly started shifting towards being an ethnoreligion
>>17273313Hinduism, Buddhism, etc don't care about that either. You have two universalist religions dominating the globe for a reason. As for the joos you can't really convert since you cannot change your ancestry. At most they will tell you to follow the seven Noahide laws. iirc they will also murder you if you try to do more
>>17273373Mahayana and Pure Land Buddhists absolutely engage in conversion
>>17273377They barely have a presence globally and they are a huge group. Meanwhile you will see Christians and Muslims going to Papua New Guinea and the deepest parts of central Africa to spread their religion. I suppose it doesn't really make sense since Buddhism exists to feed monks and spreading your faith to a remote and poor area won't increase your revenue.
>>17273313Gee who knows, maybe they are nothing but some kind of club of people with power
>>17273354Why exactly the sudden about-face on seeking coverts in such a seemingly unified fashion? Were the Rabbis that organised during the 1st or 2nd century? I thought they split into at least two major factions, maybe three?
1. Quality over quantity. 2. We don’t see the world as some grand desperate cosmic battle between Good and Evil. You won’t get tortured for eternity if you aren’t Jewish. You won’t get 24/7 eternal bliss if you’re Jewish. When you remove both the carrot and the stick, there is far less incentive to convert people. If I knew that my goy friends would suffer some endless rape dungeon by a DnD villain if they didn’t become Jewish, it would become a much bigger priority to me. 3. Christians and Muslims would constantly try to infiltrate our communities, and many still do. Insincere converts joined us so they could say “Hey, doesn’t all this sound like what Jesus/Mohammed talked about? Maybe those wonderful Christians/Muslims have a point…”.
>>17273402To be fair, it was more that broader, Greco-Roman polytheists of the Roman Empire became philosemites, and Jews were far more accepting towards converts than they are today. So the rabbis (or back then, it was more the Jewish priestly class rather than outright rabbis) weren't openly seeking so many converts, but they still engaged in more proselytization than they do nowhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/God-fearer
>>17273313Most Jews are actually Phoenicians who converted across the med after Rome destroyed Carthage. They were already basically the same genetically so no one cares in modern times but you can go ahead and look it up, even the Jews accept it happened
Judaism isn't a major religion
>>17273411>he thinks he is qualityMust be the genetic schizophrenia at play.>When you remove both the carrot and the stick, there is far less incentive to convert peopleFair point but also consider that means you have no real incentive to do anything beneficial>constantly try to infiltrate our communitiesYou should have been absorbed by your children akready
>>17273313It's an ethnoreligion today, and was kinda forced in such a way from persecution by Christian and Muslim authorities, who still kept them around for their reverence for the Old testament. The jews would have been wiped out in any non-judaized culture, see Japan.
>>17273427In terms of numbers, no, but if you look at any point in human history there's always at least 1 rat faced kiked lurking in the background moving money around and giving out loans to fascilitate wars.
>>17273427Being relevant in the west makes you a major player no matter the place on earth. Even China had BLM protests because some druggie died in bumfuck America
>>17273439We don’t do good because we want a reward or fear punishment like you do. We do good because good itself is valid enough. We are all G-d’s partners in sanctifying the world he has created. Even if there is no afterlife, so what? We left the world better than we found it: our purpose fulfilled. I volunteer with at-risk youth for this reason.
>>17273377Jews also engage in conversion.
>>17273313Crhristcucks and muzzies are their slaves, why would they need to recruit? They have no shortage of willing christcucks serving zionists.
>>17273313Druze and Mandaeans don't allow converts.
>>17273691I don't think Alawites Sikh or Yazidim allow it either, Indian Zoroastrians don't either Do Confucianists allow converts?
>>17273313There’s always Noahidism.
>>17273313you're retarded for not being able to figure it out yourself1 they don't joom from joomers2. they joom from goyim3. less joomers and more goyim = more rich joomersnow go watch some basic maths on youtube
>>17273586>We do good because good itself is valid enough.Your "good" works certainly have been showing for the past year... Human beings without any real incentives have no reason to prevent the evil within their hearts. For example take idolaters, you only dislike them because it makes you feel superior and not because it is morally wrong. Even if your book tells you to end them. Why do you think your supposed righteousness amounts to spitting on Christian in practice? It's all about pride and supremacy, you even admitted that you think you are quality compared to the rest of humanity. For the same reasons you people have tortured and persecuted the prophets. Because they actually reminded you of the actual purpose you should be doing these things for in the first place, and it hurt your massive egos. The chosen can't be told what to do, right? You believe your tribal leaders have a higher authority than the Lord >Even if there is no afterlife, so what? We left the world better than we found it: our purpose fulfilled. You have no purpose it's just guesswork on your part. And fulfilling it or not is optional anyway. Being compelled with an eternal reward/punishment means someone with a fully free will gets to decide based on reason than a coin flip if doing good is personally worth it for him.>I volunteer with at-risk youth for this reasonThat reason being simply because it makes you feel good and you like others knowing what a good person you are. It's essentially a form of free therapy and a means to make people like you. If you don't do it for the sake of God it is useless trash. At least do it to show gratitude to your creator for all the blessings you have in your life.
>>17274005That doesn't make any sense whatsoever. G-d handed down the Mitzvah because just like him, our nature as humans is ultimately good. A far cry from the cynicism of Islam and Christianity which hold that humans are rotten and broken and never good enough. A man who does the right thing because it is the right thing is much more in line with G-d’s nature than one who demands repayment, or requires threats from above like a child.
>>17274099>G-d handed down the Mitzvah because just like him, our nature as humans is ultimately good. A far cry from the cynicism of Islam and Christianity which hold that humans are rotten and broken and never good enough.I aint a jew but this is much more palatable than the "HUMANS ARE INHERENTLY EVIL AND WICKED!" schizophrenia from Christcucks and mudslimes. Unironically if Christianity had a more human = good perspective of life more people would be less skeptical about it
>>17274128muslims don't believe humans are inherently evil, the fitrah is pure. original sin does not exist in islam
>>17273313Judaism isn't a major religion
>>17273373>Buddhism, etc don't care about that either.Buddhists do make missionary work and historically worked to spread their religion>As for the joos you can't really convertyes you can
>>17273487Jews giving loans don't make judaism a major religion and they didn't facilitate wars>>17273489It also isn't relevant in the west nor is it a major player in earth>BLM that's not a product of judaism but of american leftism and the so called "BLM protests" in china were made by a handful of american ex-pats
>>17274099>G-d handed down the Mitzvah because just like him, our nature as humans is ultimately good.And yet you stray all the damn time. Why? You don't even believe Satan is outright evil. He's just a trickster employed by God to mess with you. But deep down he is happy when you reject him.>never good enoughImagine being so arrogant you think you deserve such a position just for being born Jewish lmao.>A man who does the right thing because it is the right thing is much more in line with G-d’s nature than one who demands repayment, or requires threats from above like a child.The reward/punishment is a promise from God. Our "demands" mean nothing. And don't be delusional you know very well that there are people who require the threat of eternal damnation. Different people have different motivations. What your religion provides is nothing. You're just like an atheist really.
>>17274143>Buddhists do make missionary workNot all branches and it is very niche. An exception does not make the rule. Consider how they act here in the west. They just do not give a shit about converting westerners. Only other westerners do that because of their Christian upbringing making them want to save other people.>yes you canNo you will always be a second class citizen who isn't accepted by the tribe. Why do you think early Christians were debating whether gentiles have to follow the law or not?
>>17274171>Not all branches and it is very niche. An exception does not make the rule. Consider how they act here in the west. They just do not give a shit about converting westerners. Only other westerners do that because of their Christian upbringing making them want to save other peopleA lot of times it's specific Monks who want to make profit out of westerners who want something spiritual but without "supernatural stuff"It's why they downplay the shit out of the Supernatural aspects of Buddhism to make it a fashion statement for boring white people like Sam Harris or that one Divorce white girl who listens to Lana Del Rey I do think Early Buddhists did want to "save" Indian Oriented civilizations
>>17274154Your feelings and actions are not evil in themselves, how you apply them to the world around you is. Sin in Judaism is not like Sin in Christianity or Islam. It doesn’t mean “evil” or “disobedience”. “Khata” means “failure” or “miss the goal”. For you, sin means to hurt or defy G-d. That your sins will be logged on some kind of divine balance sheet. And when you die those sins will be weighed against the good you did, like the Ancient Egyptians believed. For us, sin means you made a mess: of yourself or your neighbor or the earth itself. It’s not a good boy points system. And what do we do when we make a mess? We clean it up. The Law of Moses is an elaborate cleaning manual. Every year before Yom Kippur, we walk around thinking about all the messes we’ve made in the past year or years before. Fussing about making sure we’ve cleaned them all up to the best of our ability. Christians shrug and say “Jesus forgave all my sins. I’ll just say sorry to anyone I wrong and call it a day. Hope my sin tally isn’t too high!”. Muslims are a bit more insidious in that they say converting to Islam voids all your sins…but now you’re in a spiritual Chuck E. Cheese where you need to run around collecting 1001 good boy tickets to avoid hell. Sin in Judaism is not irredeemable on your own. G-d EMPOWERS us to clean up our own messes. Death is NOT how you clean up sins. Christians and to a lesser extent Muslims mistakenly believe that the temple sacrifices meant G-d will ONLY forgive you if something or someone dies, and that’s not it. The sacrifices were simply the cherry on top of atonement. We are not “paying” for a sin by sacrificing a goat. It represents ourselves: our failure, our mistake, and the consequences. It’s a reminder that your choices matter. Showing G-d your gratitude: unlike the goat, YOU are still alive thanks to him. It’s not a transaction of blood for sin.
>>17273313Can't let goyim know the secrets of banking, subverting nations, competitive racism etc.Get fucked goyim, there's a good chance you worship a dead jew on a stick
>>17273411>>17273586>>17274099>>17274469Not the anon you're talking with, but explain all those teachings in the Talmud then, y'know like the stuff saying Jews can steal from, kill, and rape, the Goyim and so on. I mean, there are real Jews right now, in Israel, who openly speak of non-Jews in similar ways, as well. And of course we all see what Jews bring to nations not their own; Usury, Sexual depravity, and general Cultural subversion. You see, you can claim all these things about Judaism, about how you're oh so morally superior because you do Good for no other reason than because you want to and are inherently good and so on, but it falls completely flat for anybody who's actual seen the fruits of Jewish belief in action. Seems you guys love to spend a whole lot of time saying and believing you're good but fail to ever get around to actually being Good. This is undoubtedly the result of your inflated egos, tangible in your very posts, which is unsurprising of course, as Pride is the root of all sin, which you guys allow yourselves to become utterly steeped in out of stubborn refusal to listen to the teachings of the man who, like it or not, was and is still your and everyone else's Lord and savior. For he showed us how it is done and gave us the truths necessary to fulfill our, yes, in fact, INATE, desire to do good, that we are, however, unable to fulfill all on our own. Until you can accept this, that we are good yet fundementally limited and imperfect beings who must necessarily rely on God to reflect his degree of Goodness, and drop your idealistic fantasy that "doing ya damn darndest to be good simply because ya heckin want to" isn't good enough (which, by the way, is all too clear to all those all the non-jews who actually have to deal with the consequences of your guys' prideful ways), you'll continue to out yourselves as a moral dead-end through your works.
>>17274576The Talmud is a collection of arguments between over 700 ancient rabbis, all constructing sub-arguments, hypotheticals, and citing Jewish legends based on the written and oral Torah. Judging from the sudden hostility, multiple conspiracies, and wording of this post, I’d wager you are most likely a Neo-Nazi with Christian characteristics. In which case, as you say, I will not “cast pearls before swine”.
I'm so tired of kike's. How much longer until they fade away to a handful of backwater communities like zoroastrians? It's been like 3000 years already
>>17273489>Even China had BLM protestsSource?
>>17275435Judaism as spiritual treasure for humanity, it’s not going anywhere and I’m grateful for that.
>>17273402Judaism was always an ethnic religion.Jesus suggested that the followers of God were a spiritual people, rather than an ethnic people, who embodied the law of Moses through their behavior. So they killed him.
oy vey
>>17273313Its not a religion, its a racial supremacy movement.
