Sorry, finished up the shitposting then tech issues got brought up. Ok, good faith religion thread go. Only an hour late to the party.

> Jewish identity proper died with the resurrection of Christ and destruction of The Second Temple along with the earth swallowing the attempted third temple.

Cultures change yeah, but if being born a jew is all it takes for an instant dismissal of everything then it still applies. Those bloodlines were, and still are, jewish. He followed judaism at the time, including the stuff later omitted from the OT to manipulate the message's development. For all intents and purposes he was born a jew and died one.

> "Judaism" as it is known today is a younger religion than Christianity

Christianity as it's known today is the same way, it's been significantly altered at multiple points and has branched out into 100s of much younger sects. But judaism is a more direct adaptation of jewish mythology, and christianity is closer to a more convenient fanfiction. Like islam.

> The jews are an ethnoreligious group

That's the main problem imo, it's like the muslims who hide behind "Attacking islam is racism!". It just muddies the waters to use the same term for two very distinct things. The ethno side I don't give a fuck about, the cultural/religious side affects their actions more imo. Fuck zionism.

> There has always been mysticism and occultic practices since old testament times

Way way before that tbh.

> Do as thou wilt

That's just human nature, it's inherent in all of us. We're all selfish skin monkeys, even when we do things for others it's because we want to. Or we feel resentment in some form when we are forced into doing things for others against our will. It's certainly not limited to jews and/or occultists like Crowley.

> This matters because "LeVay" and his "satanism" is an understandable byproduct of this.

LaVeyan philosophy blasphemes against the shared god of the kikes/xians and goatfuckers, not just jesus. Otherwise I'd say this point would be more solid, if they only went after the main difference between christianity and judaism. Blaspheming against the kike god is still a nono under judaism, the religion not the ethnicity.

> Christ as Logos incarnate is not a "Jew" in the modern semblance of the word and it is disingenuous to claim as much and is either from ignorance or malice.

As far as ethnic jew goes, it's irrelevant that the culture/religion has changed. Christians again, have also undergone similar changes/reformation etc. For jesus, he worshipped his era's version of judaism and was born of at least one jew (who his mum fucked is allegedly unknown, I suspect a roman soldier personally). He's a jew, there's no wriggle room there. He did deviate from the traditional judaism of the time, and rebelled against it enough to get himself killed as a cult leader, but he was still born and died a jew.
