One of the things that Jews do that the Catholics do not... Is allow their ancient books to be distributed a bit more freely.
While under the Vatican, the library is closely guarded and books often are not allowed to be copied, what there is of Jewish History spanning perhaps
7,000 years is, the stuff gets around.
As I was raised, Purim and Sacrifice was taken in a sense of the word as to... make a sacrifice...
Giving GIFTS...
For me Purim was one of the only holidays I liked, The term Sacrifice around any modern Jew in NY and even for the Orthodox who are considered in NY
to be the most religious of Jews this was about presents, dressing up in costumes, getting and giving candy... like Halloween but with nothing i'd
ever have recognized
Of course I can understand that in ancient times... Sacrifice was LITERAL
Animal Sacrifice I have read of and, I can read Hebrew, Aramaic a bit as well... took 7 years of Hebrew school at a synagogue every day after public
school...
I have always been a book buff and bit of a Historian and I have read some very old Hebrew tombs...
I can Honestly say I have never come across anything that talked of HUMAN Sacrifice of any kind in place of Animal... and again these were the most
religious, The Jews the Talmud is based on ancient Babylon stuff of Jews...
Now i'll be fair...
I don't actually doubt that
There is lots of ancient Babylonia that came with us and in The Talmud
Is it possible that there is truth to some of this....
Sure... Human sacrifice in those times maybe
Is it possible that some old books given the Jews penchant for copying old books endlessly word by word existed until the previous century
Yes
Is it possible that some Jews took it Literally and Sat around and performed these rituals
Yes
But LOL... That's NOT Jews.. In General
And your showing cases from a century or more ago... and hardly a few...
It would seem I suppose awfully similar to what modern Satanists are doing today
The RARE out of their mind ones who actually ACT on this superstitious ancient nonsense...
I'll say this...
Whatever happened back then... This stuff has been erased pretty thoroughly because I have a cousin who runs a congregation in Israel and... I have
never seen the words in a single book either in NY or In Israel...
It's hard to say what can arise out of... reading old texts when mentally ill lol
The Jews have pretty strict laws regarding who should and should not read and at what ages even the most benevolent of stuff...
And ill be honest for sake of education and sanity
The cases could be real
or
they could just be anti Jew propaganda...
But i'll bet for sure that older versions of certain tombs mentioned Ritual Human Sacrifice...
Like most of the world religions once did... not defending, just saying it exactly as your link says it... all religions did.
It would be ludicrous to say Jews still practice this...
If Jews would want to shut down that kind of info... well people think enough crazy things usually for lack of even known a Jew
I don't go to Thanksgiving dinner and mention the slaughter of the Indians and the small pox
I wouldn't go to Europe and talk about the Huns drinking Blood from human skulls and things of that nature...
Or to Mexico on Cinco De Mayo and mention someone pulling the heart from a chest of a virgin every week for a few centuries
It kind of would make people feel bad... on a holiday
But to be fair... there could be truth to this a century ago... heck it could happen tomorrow, it doesn't mean "Jews" practice it... any more than
Satan worship is a part of Christianity.
Mentioning these things, thinking evil thoughts creates Evil...
Thanks to your post here... and that site
NOW... thousands of more people know about this ritual, even if it was never human which I can see no way to determine from 150 + years ago if this
stuff happened or not... some nutty characters might want to try this on Purim...
Just like some Catholics and Christians do play with Devil worship and we occasionally get things that happen
Because they know about it... it's out there...
So sure, as the site says Jew money would want to hush it, G-d forbid some Jewish kid with problems gets his hands on this idea today... 2 or 3
tabloid articles because of one or two people could lead to a slaughter...
Jews don't quite have the land area and numbers of the Christians you know... One kid pulls something like this and it's a fee for all on jews...
But hide anything
No way lol
Even among the ultra Ultra orthodox, if there is copies of this sort of thing preserved they are hidden and exceptionally rare... if after the
holocaust any Jew would actually be stupid enough to Leave around even a single copy of something of this nature... maybe I kind of doubt it though
But no
Purim Today for what I can assure is 99.9% of Jews... wont say 100% there are freaky INDIVIDUALS out there... just 100% honesty
Purim is Halloween and Easter... it's a fun holiday a story of a King and things and...blah blah...
(most Jewish stories are kind of downers if you ask me)
But no one I ever knew sacrifices so much as a pigeon... it's become a gift giving thing in the modern world and for a long, long time... Centuries
and Centuries
IF
Some guy practiced a Human Sacrifice from a Thousands of years old tradition on that day... Or even just interpreted an Animal sacrifice that way he
should hang like anyone else... be it 1840 or 2040
So a serious answer for a serious topic... This might have happened, it very well could have existed in older books although I have never seen it and
Jews do not practice sacrifice today even among the most Orthodox I have known...
and again, if any ONE does... hang em, individually... I assure you the rest of us wont protest
