Have you ever seen the horror of the suffering which Hitler inflicted upon the Jews during World War II? Have you ever paused to reflect upon WHY God would allow such pain, suffering and death to be inflicted upon these descendants of Abraham? Well, I have, and each time I see TV footage which shows their efflictions I am reminded of the words of their ancestors, who many years ago, at the time when they cried out for Pilate to impose the sentence of death upon our Lord, they explicitly stated: "Let his blood be upon us, AND ON OUR CHILDREN." (Matthew 27:25) Is this not further evidence which supports my assertion that the sins of our forefathers are heaped upon their descendants?

After all, it was their words which condemned them, and we see the results of their rejection of our Lord being meted out upon their descendants. Hitler just happened to be the instruments through which such destruction came.

No, your god killed jesus, dumbass. And if it existed, it would've stopped the Holocaust, not sat around on its ass allowing not just the deaths of the Jews, but the Russians, Americans, English, French, Poles (i didn't forget poland), and all of the other millions who also died.
The Holocaust and the lack of response by any deity has been more instrumental then just about anything else to show me that there is no god. How any god could allow that to go on, for years and years, and do nothing about it, yet tries to tell me that he watches and cares about my every move? Preposterous. that is no kind of loving god, much less a god I would worship. I don't care if god does have a grudge against a group of people, allowing that to happen to cats and dogs would've been enough to show that he doesn't care, much less millions of innocent people.
Your god is a fucking monster, and so are you if you think he would allow that. Sick, bloodthirsty pricks you two.
If this is what your god does to his Chosen People, it sure doesn't give much hope to the rest of us, now does it? You have the god with the bloodiest hands. Congratulations.
Is this not further evidence which supports my assertion that the sins of our forefathers are heaped upon their descendants? Could be... but both God and Jesus said that no child would pay for the sins of their fathers.
You guys have been punishing Jews for an act that led to the founding of your religion for almost two millenia now. Don't you think you've gone just a bit overboard?
Besides, the synoptic gospels were written around the time that Jews were in open rebellion against Rome and it was politically expedient for the early Christians to distance themselves from their Jewish roots.
Well, the same kind of God who'd flood the entire earth because he didn't like the way we were acting, really. I don't even bother to pretend to be surprised anymore when some fundie preaches hate and wrath. Hitler being an agent of God is a new one though. No, wait, I'm pretty sure that's been said before too.
Ah, well, you're an anti-Semite AND a Holocaust apologist. You're obviously not fit to join the general population, so back to the monkey cage with you.
Following that stupid logic, what about the Armenians?, which offense did they to suffer so much?, what about the Native American?
Matthew had an agenda, dude. And it was the blame that Matthew intended to give the people of Jerusalem (at the urges of the leaders, who are the real scapegoats), not the suffering itself. And it's long been the line used by anti-Semites for millenia, in spite of the fact that Matthew (or the anonymous author who wrote the gospel we attribute to Matthew) was Jewish and likely writing to the Jewish Christians persecuted by Jewish leaders who expelled them from the temple.
Not this dog crap again!
If that whole bullshit scene of the Romans offering to free "just one" prisoner ever did take place, then Jesus could not be freed. Otherwise, the alleged almighty Jehovamagod would not get the opportunity to kill himself to free himself from a rule he himself made, and was not almighty enough to just rescind, but rather had to resurrect himself so he could forgive us. WTF kind of Loonytoon are you worshiping?
Fweee Bwian!
Even if we were to assume that the Jews killed him, it was God's will, because God is omnipotent, omniscient and must have planned the ordeal. So, God is punishing Jews for doing what he wanted them to do?
See, this is why I don't believe in God.
It makes me sick to my stomach to think that in this day and age, there are still people who think this way.
As someone who has ancestors who were killed in the Holocaust, all I can say is...fuck you and your fairytale god, asswipe.
If anyone ever did that to your ancestors, you'd be just as horrified as everyone else, not trying to make excuses as to why your family deserved it.
Die in a fucking fire. Slowly .
Matthew is a forgery.
Next idiot.
At least you have identified the fundamental reasoning behind historical antisemitism and, by extension, the holocaust itself. Unfortunately for you, it's still a load of complete and utter bollocks and your failure to recognise it as such coupled with your willingness to align yourself with Hitler, Himmler, Striecher and the rest of the Nazi fuckwits makes you worthy of the same contempt and revulsion that they, so deservedly, endure.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
