the romans had no problem with jesus; in fact, they really liked the guy - he told everybody to pay taxes and be good citizens. it was the jewish leaders that requested he be crucified as he was, by definition, a heretic; and the punishment for heresy was death. the romans only went along with it in order to prevent a revolt; pilate didn't wash his hands because he fell in the mud. > > nazism > > is born out of the christian tradition of anti-semitism, > > Nazism is pagan, not Christian. > http://www.sasquatch.com/~kory/occult_roots.html the "arians are supreme" part of nazism is pagan; the "semites are plotting to destroy us" part is the result of hundreds of years of bigotry pushed, originally, by the vatican. personally, i'm not entirely convinced that hitler or the neo-pagans in charge actually *believed* any of their anti-jewish tripe; either way, it was used by hitler's bosses as a means to bring out long standing societal prejudices and brainwash the people into complete subservience. "you're starving and desperate.....who do you blame? the jews! give us supreme power and we'll get rid of all of them! only then will you be fed and comfortable.". bullshit, of course........but it worked because europe *already* had strong anti-semitic feelings hidden away under the carpet: feelings that were the result of vatican propaganda resulting from the circumstances around the death of christ. > brought upon > > by > > ridiculous conclusions stemming from the historical fact that christ > > was > > killed by a mob of fundamentalist jews. > > Again, Jews who were in bed with the ROMANS. the romans were never concerned with the internal workings of their provinces; they allowed everything from independant currency to religious freedom. they merely desired taxes and a place for their citizens to worship when they happened to drop by. given this, i'm not entirely sure what your point is: true, rome chose to associate itself with those willing to associate with it; but i'm failing to see how this changes the historical fact that jesus was crucified primarily because he was seen as a threat to the continuing existence of the jewish aristocracy, which held supreme power solely through religious subjugation. >At the time, the high > priest was ROMAN-appointed. yet widely despised. > Judea was under ROMAN occupation, not > rising up until 66 A.D. in the first Jewish revolt. roman occupation, yes. yet, truly, not under roman control. pop question: who led the first revolt? inri np: http://chat.carleton.ca/~jparent2/ "there ought to be limits to freedom" - george w. bush "if this were a dictatorship, it'd be a heck of a lot easier, just so long as i'm the dictator." - george w. bush "i'm not going to let congress erode the power of the executive branch" - george w. bush <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/";>www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
