I don’t know. A sense of humour, an ability to reflect on one’s situation – the laws of nature don’t seem to tell the whole story.
“What if the history of our relationship with Jews in the Human network actually follows the template for how nature evolves all its systems?”
Well plainly, it does. But as mankind specifically has the freedom to annihilate or correct itself, the fact that the history of the relationship with the Jews follows the template is small comfort.
What did I take from this section?
That we are all Nimrod and Abraham
That the development of humanity has narrowed the options for Nimrod, and that the last stretch will either be kicking and screaming, or running with open arms.
That having been there before, the Jews have a residual memory of another state of being that can act as a guide to themselves and to everyone.
My name is David and I am living in Cambridge in England.
Why does antisemitism exist? Hitler said he was freeing man from the chimera of conscience and morality and personally taking on the burden of free thought that few people could bear.
The Jewish message to the world is one of responsibility, each to the other. And who wouldn’t resent being told there is a correct way to behave, when it is at some cost to oneself?
And when the Jews themselves seem to be getting ahead, that’s another cause for resentment. It encourages a belief that something else is going on, and that the Jews aren’t telling the whole story.
At a deeper level, the Jews have to ‘get ahead’ otherwise they would not come to the notice of the world throughout the ages.
And when some among the Jews seem neither moral nor considerate, then there is a perfect storm of resentment.
What would the world of today be like for the Jews if there was no antisemitism?
If the Jews were to forget the whole thing and go to the beach, or if they were to decide to forget the desire to uncover that which is hidden in Creation, then antisemitism is there to remind them.
