"Google Crypto-Jews and try and wrap your head around just one example of history."

We're not talking about ancient history. I said give me current examples and you couldn't do it. There goes your "forced" conversion nonsense.

“We’re not talking about ancient history. I said give me current examples and you couldn’t do it. There goes your “forced” conversion nonsense.”

There are still communities of Crypto Jews, and Jews of other forced conversions across the world coming to terms with their lineage and going through a rediscovery process today. Many continued to practice Judaism in hiding.

animal sacrifices were moved to the temple and away from the “burbs” in ancient times. Also, rabbis didn’t do sacrifices anyway.

Anyone espouses “one true religion” isn’t too far removed from “force”.
