Jews don't really hate anyone for not believing in their God. Unlike Christianity and Islam, Jews don't believe that everyone has to follow their religion. They don't really believe in Heaven and Hell, and they don't proselytize to people who aren't already Jews. Judaism is for the Jewish people and that's it.
Well, it is true that unlike other religions, Jews don't try to necessarily recruit new people, They do try to recruit non-religious Jewish people into religion, which is still bad. And the Jewish religion still has a bunch of terrible, racist, misogynistic and overall just terrible beliefs that are inherent to the religion. And there are still a bunch of Jews who just hate all other religions, especially Orthodox Jews.
No, but a key tenet is the belief that Jews have a "higher purpose" in life than gentiles, and unfortunately this manifests as ethno-religious supremacy in the more conservative circles. A lot of the rhetoric surrounding Gaza is that Jews have a biblical right to the land over...the people that actually live there.
Interesting. That's almost the opposite of Baha'is. Baha'is don't proselytize because everyone is a Baha'i. They just haven't discovered it for themselves yet, and they have to do that, it's not the job of the Baha'is to do anything but live the best way they can. Their "Kingdom of God," or afterlife is also distinctly different from the concept of Heaven and Hell as well.
christians learned their lesson after the crusades. muslims are currently on their way of learning it
This is a really poor understanding of the crusades as well as religious violence in general.
please educate me on religious violence
Well for starts the crusades were about more than just religion, and it's pretty obvious that they weren't the end of Christian religious violence and that nobody "learned their lesson" from them.
of course but they also were about religion
I'd say they were the epitome of christian violence (against non-christians) and from then on it decreased overall
after enough of the desasters that were the crusades they stopped doing them altogether
Number of deaths in the crusades- 1,000,000
Number of deaths in the colonization of the Americas- 59,000,000+
