Martin Luther, founder of the Protestant Sect of Christianity was a staunch
|
||
and rabid anti-semite.
|
||
|
||
In _On the Jews and Their Lies_ (1543), Martin Luther accepted at face value
|
||
medieval prejudices aginst the Jews: that they engaged in sorcery and magic,
|
||
poisoned the wells of Christians, desecrated the Eucharistic host, and
|
||
ritually murdered Christian children. In the concluding section, excerpted
|
||
here, Luther advises civil and clerical authorities to treat the Jews harshly.
|
||
Luther's anti-Jewish outbrusts influenced Northern European
|
||
anti-Semitic/anti-jewish prejuidices in later times (Nazi Germany et al).

|
||
Martin Luther
|
||
On the Jews and Their Lies
|
||
1543
|
||
|
||
First to set fire to their synagoges or schools and to bury and cover with
|
||
dirt whatever will not burn, so that no man will ever again see a stone or
|
||
cinder of them. This is to be done in honor of our Lord and of Christiandom,
|
||
so that God might see that we are Christians, and do not condone or knowingly
|
||
blashpheming of his Son and of his Christians...
|
||
|
||
Second, I advise that their houses also be razed and destroyed. For they
|
||
pursue in them the same aims as in thier synagogues. Instead they might be
|
||
lodged under a roof in a barn, like the gypsies. This will bring home to them
|
||
the fact that they are not masters in our country, as they boast, but that
|
||
they are living in exile and in captivity, as they incessantly wail and lament
|
||
about us before God.
|
||
|
||
Third, I advise that all their pryayer books and Talmudic writings, in which
|
||
such idolatry, lies, cursings, and blasphemy are taught, be taken from them.
|
||
|
||
Fourth , I advise that their rabbis be forbidden to teach henceforth on of
|
||
life and limb....
|
||
|
||
Sixth, Iadvise that usuary be prohibited to them, and that all cash and
|
||
treasure of silver and gold be taken from them and put aside for safekeeping
|
||
<uh-huh>. The reason for such a measure is that, as said above, they have no
|
||
other means of earning a livelihood than usary, and by it they have stolen and
|
||
robbed from us all they possess...
|
||
|
||
<Here, we see how Martin Luther propagated the 'money grubbing jew' sterotype>
|
||
|
||
Seventh, I recommend putting a flail, an ax, ahow, a spade, a distaff, or a
|
||
spindle into the hands of young strong Jews and Jewesses and letting them earn
|
||
their bread in the sweat of their brow, as was imposed on the children of
|
||
Adam. <Slavery>. For it is not fitting that they should let us accursed Goyim
|
||
toil in the sweat of our faces while they the holy people, idle away their
|
||
time behind the stove, feasting and farting, and on top of all, boasting
|
||
blasphemously of their lordship over the Christians by means of our sweat. No,
|
||
one should toss out these lazy rogues by the seat of their pants.
|
||

|
||
So here we see, how the founder of the Protestant Religion, which encompasses
|
||
all of Christianity, excluding the Catholic, Greek, and Russian Orthodox
|
||
Churchs, was a violent a deranged anti-semitic. Luther teachings re-enforced
|
||
anti-semitism throughout northern europe setting the stage for the Nazi and
|
||
the Concentrations camps.
|
||
|
||
The Catholic church is no better, from its creation till 1960 (over 1100
|
||
years) it taught as holy doctrine that jews where 'wicked'. The Greek and
|
||
Russian Orthodox Churchs also have a long histroy of anti-jewish action. The
|
||
infamous 'Protocols of the Elders of Zions' was written and distribued by the
|
||
Russian Orthodox Church.
|
||
|
||
It shoud be noted that President Bush, and VP Quayle are both Protestants.
|
||
Bush have 4 prominate neo-nazis on his campaign staff, and both Bush and
|
||
Quayle belong to country clubs that exclude jews (and blacks, hispanics, and
|
||
women). Bush has also support southern racists like Jesse Helms, and has
|
||
engaded in propaganda to hinder civil rights bills, and to increaser acial
|
||
tensions in our major cities.
