The Talmud is a collection of JEWISH writings based on Mishnah aka the Oral Torah. There is a Babylonian one written in Mesopotamia and Jerusalem Talmud written in Galilee.
Incorrect. The talmud are not Jewish writings. They came way way after the fact and authored by people who weren't even Jewish.
The Pharisees claimed Judaism for political clout and melded their own demon cult laws and philosophies into Judaism and with Jewish iconography, but it's not jewish.
All Jews in Israel believe in it. Religious Jews to get exempt from army service to go do religious study, study the Talmud.
Israel is not currently inhabited by jews. Most of the people living their claim ashkenazi ancestry and came from Europe.
Therefore, they must believe it.
Religion is prescriptive. In order to be part of a relgion, you have to follow its rules, rituals etc. If youre doing something ELSE, as people living in israel do, you arent part of the religion
if the talmud was not written by jews, and is not followed by jews, what makes it jewish?
There are Talmud scriptures
there not scrupture
online that are non-confirmed otherwise and said to be anti-semitism but even if you throw those away, many of the most horrific scriptures such as the one about it being okay to rape babies are there. (Same for Quaran/Imam, it is actually causing a lot of Muslims to leave because they are awakening to the bullshit in their scriptures)
The baby rape thing is not part ofnjewish literature. It is talmudic. The talmud are religious practices and laws that are not part of judaism.Judaism.
I'm not debating or denying what the talmud says. What I'm asking you is, what makes it jewish? It's not in the Torah, wasn't written by jews, and the people who follow it are not jews.
So perhaps you just think they're Jewish because a gay austrian with a funny mustache told you? I'm genuinely curios
