The destruction of Jerusalem was not called a holocaust. You've merely labeled it such. And, you've inflated the numbers of Jews who sacrificed themselves for Judaism.

The NT of Rome indeed had something more important to write about - how to escape Judaism.

The Jews didn't give anything to Rome. Rome's church fathers invented their Gentile religion and called it Christianity. The Jews hated the Romans because the Romans used their OT against them.

The Greeks gave Christianity, thinking Judaism was dead. That was an error.
The church of Rome should have constructed their Gentile religion without any mention of Jews. However, had they done this, you'd still find something to complain about. :Cheeky:

Israel lives. Rome is dead. Shame on Europe for glorifying a depraved power as an enlightenment.
My nephew just came back from a Roman holiday. He said Rome was alive with tourists and like tourists he bought a lot of useless stuff.

Oh, and I wanted ot tell you Joseph, that I warned my nephew not to go to Israel because he might get an m16 shoved in his face at one of the guard posts and a bunch of angry Jews dressed in black yelling "we killed Jesus and we'll kill you to".
