You are either profoundly retarded and unable to understand simple English, or you are willfully and deliberately misrepresenting what I have said in public for all to see. In any case, I want nothing to do with you, or anyone else so lacking in either intelligence or simple integrity.

Actions have consequences. Your actions are a matter of public record.

Not to jump into an argument between you fellows, since you seem to be enjoying it so much, but Yehuda, I followed the link you posted: Yehuda's Link
and it seems to me to focus on something called British-Israelism and the Worldwide Church of God - but not about "White Power", "Christian Identity" (both racist groups) or "anti-Semitism".

Since it is a google search, it may list those sometimes with British-Israelism, but it also lists Wicca, for goodness sake - on links that group "cults" or general reglious listings.

Did you mean to post a different link?

20 THINGS THAT IT TOOK ME 50 YEARS TO LEARN

By Dave Barry


4. People who want to share their religious views with you almost never want you to share yours with them.

Forgive me if the search was too broad. Use the search with results at the bottom of the google page - for instance, searching on "anti semitism" within the results of the previous link gives these results.

Okay, I did that.
The very first link that appears says: "The Worldwide Church of God did not endorse anti-Semitism, nor racism."

Then there is another link that does not say that British Israelism was anti-semitic, it says that the Christian Identiy groups were rooted in teachings that were derived from it and "In the 1920s the doctrine was heavily advanced by Reuben H. Sawyer, a Ku Klux Klan member who transformed the philo-Semitic views of traditional British Israelism into a virulent anti-Semitism by linking Judaism with Bolshevism". Right there it says that British Israelsim is philo-semitic - means love. The KKK guy flipped it to be anti-semitic..

But I can see where you are coming from. Other sites like link appear to be making the claim that you are making - that British Israelism is anti-semitic because it is synonymous with Nazis, Christian Identity, KKK, etc.

My view after looking over some of these different sites is that "British Israelism" as a religion is dead. It has been officially repudiated. It was moderately big in the 19th century and early 20th century BEFORE the KKK twisted it. It no longer exists as a religion.

However, it does make an interesting historal perspective. Clearly, if the "Cimmerians" are descended from some of the old Israelite tribes, they lost all of their Jewish "culture". That does not preclude their being genetic descendents. It's possible. Forced migration of populations have occurred throughout history, and in some cases the transported populations did lose their cultures entirely. Only extensive DNA testing of populations will tell that. Since such testing is being done throughout the world today, the science will tell whether this theory is total garbage, a historical suprise, or something in between.
