Just like a religion that said people of your religion killed your savior. It's all so stupid.

Jews are connected with banking. There are some very powerful jewish families that basically control banking. It's is just a fact and it's not even a conspiracy, they were simply allowed to do it when Christians said nobody but them could do it. The "Gentiles" basically killed the Templars(old bankers), Lubed up and shoved their asses upon the Jews. Perhaps they thought they could kill them off too when the debts got too high...wait a second...things that make you go hmmm...
hmmm?
There has long lived a legend about the day in Scotland long ago when the Scots defeated a much greater English host at Bannockburn. In recent years this legend has gathered a far stronger basis in fact. Fascinating historical detection by several authors appears to have restored the truth about those days long ago when the Templars were men on the run. These men did not just vanish from history without a trace after all, but continued to greatly affect and even shape its outcome.
When the Papal letter reached the hand of Robert the Bruce of Scotland to imprison the Templars, he summarily dismissed it. No effort at all was ever made to prosecute the Knighthood in Scotland and this was undoubtedly a major attraction to many noble Templars in hiding. Though perhaps no longer able to openly call themselves Templars, they appear to have continued to exercise real power in the world.
Scotland had suffered greatly at the hand of the English. Under Edward I they had been cruelly treated and their continued subjugation had been the cause for much bloodshed, most notably under the leadership of William Wallace. After Wallace's death, Robert the Bruce, a claimant to the Scottish throne took up his mantle and endeavored to once again free Scotland from England's yoke against Edward's son Edward II. Not nearly as able a leader as his father Edward II none the less had far superior forces and resources than did the Scots.
Edward's armies harried Bruce's army all about Scotland in an effort to exterminate the rebellion. Much evidence supports the belief that Robert the Bruce apparently welcomed renegade Templars into Scotland, both by overland journey from England, and as well as on ships from France. He was in great need of experienced and well equipped fighting men of this there is no doubt. The English outnumbered and out-eqquipped him badly, particularly when it came to armor and horse. Dispossessed of their lands and primary means of support, the Templars sought shelter anywhere they were well received. Such a place was Scotland.

Presidents of Scottish or Scots-Irish descent
At least twenty three presidents of the United States have some Scottish or Scots-Irish ancestry, although the extent of this varies. For example, Ronald Reagan's great grandfather was a Scot and Woodrow Wilson’s maternal grandparents were both Scottish. To a lesser degree Bill Clinton, James K. Polk and Richard Nixon have less direct Scottish, Scots-Irish ancestry.
James Monroe (Scottish & Welsh)
5th President 1817-25: His paternal 2nd great-grandfather, Major Andrew Monroe who was descended from Robert Munro, 14th Baron of Foulis, chief of an ancient Scottish highland clan, emigrated to America from Scotland in the mid-17th century.
Andrew Jackson (Scots-Irish)
7th President 1829-37: : He was born in the predominantly Ulster-Scots Waxhaws area of South Carolina two years after his parents left Boneybefore, near Carrickfergus in County Antrim. A heritage centre in the village pays tribute to the legacy of 'Old Hickory', the People's President. Andrew Jackson then moved to Tennessee, where he served as Governor[47]
James Knox Polk (Scots-Irish)
11th President, 1845-49: His ancestors were among the first Ulster-Scots settlers, emigrating from Coleraine in 1680 to become a powerful political family in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. He moved to Tennessee and became its governor before winning the presidency.[48]
James Buchanan (Scots-Irish)
15th President, 1857-61: Born in a log cabin (which has been relocated to his old school in Mercersburg, Pennsylvania), 'Old Buck' cherished his origins: "My Ulster blood is a priceless heritage".

You're right. It really has nothing to do with religion. It has to do with control.Just like a religion that said people of your religion killed your savior. It's all so stupid.
Nonsense. Some Jews are in banking and lots and lots of other people are also in banking. It's just that the Jews get attention because they happen to be Jews.
- Mark TwainIn estimating worldly values the Jew is not shallow, but deep. With precocious wisdom he found out in the morning of time that some men worship rank, some worship heroes, some worship power, some worship God, and that over these ideals they dispute and cannot unite - but that they all worship money; so he made it the end and aim of his life to get it.
You're right. It really has nothing to do with religion. It has to do with control.
My father said something meaningful to me once:
"Why is it that when I am being good with my money I am being a Jew but when a non Jew is good with their money they're being smart?"
Me-Ki-Gal is right. Only the Vatican switched their fiscal capital alliance from the Templars to the Zionists. My reading likewise suggests that the majority of the Templars went underground and moved their base of operations.
Party hounds have lots of sayings for savers . Miserly , Frugal, I like the one squeeze a penny till it screams the best. I can squeeze a penny till it screams . Now that is a miracle to make metal scream out . You must admit.
Look the money flow is blocked or all would be as it was pre heat up of markets . Except consumption is the new dirty word so it is doomed to fail anyway. That will have to work its course through the system . Painful as that might be
You're right. It really has nothing to do with religion. It has to do with control.
Just like a religion that said people of your religion killed your savior. It's all so stupid.
Me? When? Where? I don't remember doing that. . . .You connected Jews with banking as if they were synonymous, and also placed high ranking Jews as the Masters on your pyramid of slavery, as if Jews rule the world. Both of these are typical anti-semitic points of propaganda.
The other event has to do with a mistranslation of the Bible. There's a passage in Hebrew that identifies usury (loaning money at an exorbitant interest rate) as a sin, but the Christian translations of the Old Testament rendered that word as simply loaning money at any interest rate.
This made it impossible for people who had surplus wealth to invest their money: it would be sinful to earn interest! So they might as well dissipate it on champagne and hookers. (Oh wait, perhaps those are sins too. I haven't read the Bible, Mein Kampf, or the Communist Manifesto, all for the same reason.)
However, the Jews, who pride themselves on literacy so they can read the Bible for themselves and not trust a priest to interpret it accurately, knew better. They were happy to loan out their money for interest. And notice that while the Christians believed it was a sin to loan money, apparently it was not a sin to borrow it.
So--is everybody now saying "duh" in unison?--the Jews ended up being Europe's bankers. That's an easy way to get everybody to hate you, even today.
Matthew 25:14-30
New International Version (NIV)
The Parable of the Bags of Gold
14 “Again, it will be like a man going on a journey, who called his servants and entrusted his wealth to them. 15 To one he gave five bags of gold, to another two bags, and to another one bag,[a] each according to his ability. Then he went on his journey. 16 The man who had received five bags of gold went at once and put his money to work and gained five bags more. 17 So also, the one with two bags of gold gained two more. 18 But the man who had received one bag went off, dug a hole in the ground and hid his master’s money.
19 “After a long time the master of those servants returned and settled accounts with them. 20 The man who had received five bags of gold brought the other five. ‘Master,’ he said, ‘you entrusted me with five bags of gold. See, I have gained five more.’
21 “His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness!’
22 “The man with two bags of gold also came. ‘Master,’ he said, ‘you entrusted me with two bags of gold; see, I have gained two more.’
23 “His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness!’
24 “Then the man who had received one bag of gold came. ‘Master,’ he said, ‘I knew that you are a hard man, harvesting where you have not sown and gathering where you have not scattered seed. 25 So I was afraid and went out and hid your gold in the ground. See, here is what belongs to you.’
26 “His master replied, ‘You wicked, lazy servant! So you knew that I harvest where I have not sown and gather where I have not scattered seed? 27 Well then, you should have put my money on deposit with the bankers, so that when I returned I would have received it back with interest.
28 “‘So take the bag of gold from him and give it to the one who has ten bags. 29 For whoever has will be given more, and they will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what they have will be taken from them. 30 And throw that worthless servant outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’
Luke 19:12-28
New International Version (NIV)
12 He said: “A man of noble birth went to a distant country to have himself appointed king and then to return. 13 So he called ten of his servants and gave them ten minas.[a] ‘Put this money to work,’ he said, ‘until I come back.’
14 “But his subjects hated him and sent a delegation after him to say, ‘We don’t want this man to be our king.’
15 “He was made king, however, and returned home. Then he sent for the servants to whom he had given the money, in order to find out what they had gained with it.
16 “The first one came and said, ‘Sir, your mina has earned ten more.’
17 “‘Well done, my good servant!’ his master replied. ‘Because you have been trustworthy in a very small matter, take charge of ten cities.’
18 “The second came and said, ‘Sir, your mina has earned five more.’
19 “His master answered, ‘You take charge of five cities.’
20 “Then another servant came and said, ‘Sir, here is your mina; I have kept it laid away in a piece of cloth. 21 I was afraid of you, because you are a hard man. You take out what you did not put in and reap what you did not sow.’
22 “His master replied, ‘I will judge you by your own words, you wicked servant! You knew, did you, that I am a hard man, taking out what I did not put in, and reaping what I did not sow? 23 Why then didn’t you put my money on deposit, so that when I came back, I could have collected it with interest?’
24 “Then he said to those standing by, ‘Take his mina away from him and give it to the one who has ten minas.’
25 “‘Sir,’ they said, ‘he already has ten!’
26 “He replied, ‘I tell you that to everyone who has, more will be given, but as for the one who has nothing, even what they have will be taken away. 27 But those enemies of mine who did not want me to be king over them—bring them here and kill them in front of me.’”
Just about the first thing my folks always say to me every time they see me is how much did you save this week?Miserly , Frugal, I like the one squeeze a penny till it screams the best. I can squeeze a penny till it screams .
The people that are in control? Whether their families are outwardly Jewish, Christian, etc. are more concerned with control and power. They do not defer to religious texts or spiritual teachers at all. Not most of them anyhow. I am sure of this. If they did, the world would not be in the shape it is in.I do think it has a lot to do with religion. Most of them do not value doubt, so people don't doubt themselves. That creates arrogance and self-righteousness.
Why this system of control? Because religion dictates it by it's very nature. Christianity is a totalitarian structure and the society that lives by those values is also totalitarian. It describes a state in which evil is always working to undermine the good, so it's never well enough to leave things alone. Freedom of thought could undermine the eternal destiny of millions of souls. It's essentially a control structure that perpetuates itself.
Of course I've taken economics courses. I understand the basics, Keynesian, and Austrian schools of thought. I also understand that all schools of economic thought are merely humanities attempt to control society. The very study of economics is called the "dismal science" and in that, the only truth there is that it is indeed dismal, but a science? huh. . . . far from it.You obviously never took even the most basic course in economics. Until you do, I suggest that you keep quiet rather than continue to embarrass yourself in this community of scholars.As I said, you have not the faintest understanding of how an economy works. That money does not "sit in a bank." It is being lent out to other people to start businesses, including the "business" of sending children to college so they can become prosperous adults who help make civilization even better, a "business" your parents obviously did not practice. It is being spent on the building of factories, warehouses, computer networks and stores, not to mention paying the salaries of their workers.
Do you have any clue what nepotism is? :bugeye:The essential question is whether it is right to treat Jews in general as being better then non Jews at handling money on average. On average I would say yes, not that non Jews can't be good or excellent at handling money or that Jews can't stink at it. But there are more non Jews that stink at handling money then there are Jews.
The second question is whether it is justified to penalize the Jews for being so good at it. Absolutely not.
Were you making a point or were you just trying to show your smart enough to know what a synonym is?
Do you have any clue what nepotism is? :bugeye:
You see? This is the sort of arrogance, this is the attitude that breeds hatred of Jews. Jewish people are so clueless of their bigotry.
:worship: Of course, their ability to work with money is in their genes. I have an idea. . . why not just let them have the power to create money out of thin air, so the rest of the world's populations can slave for them, give them interest payments for that money, so they and their children never have to work ever again. We will install them in the banks, media, and top positions of corporations and governments of every nation on the planet. How does that sound? Then the whole world will be grateful for their service?
I can't take credit for this idea of course. This idea comes straight from the Zionists. And there is a "forged and plagiarized" book you can read about all these ideas in as well. Funny thing, if you pay attention, you can see these things happening before our very eyes in the world we live in today. . . unless you don't want to look. I've heard it said that something like 80% of the plans in that book have already come to pass. hmmm. . . Sometimes turning your head and not looking to see the truth is easier.
-Mark TwainIf the statistics are right, the Jews constitute but one percent of the human race. It suggests a nebulous dim puff of star dust lost in the blaze of the Milky Way. Properly the Jew ought hardly to be heard of, but he is heard of, has always been heard of. He is as prominent on the planet as any other people, and his commercial importance is extravagantly out of proportion to the smallness of his bulk. His contributions to the world's list of great names in literature, science, art, music, finance, medicine, and abstruse learning are also away out of proportion to the weakness of his numbers. He has made a marvellous fight in the world, in all the ages; and has done it with his hands tied behind him. He could be vain of himself, and be excused for it. The Egyptian, the Babylonian, and the Persian rose, filled the planet with sound and splendor, then faded to dream-stuff and passed away; the Greek and the Roman followed, and made a vast noise, and they are gone; other peoples have sprung up and held their torch high for a time, but it burned out, and they sit in twilight now, or have vanished. The Jew saw them all, beat them all, and is now what he always was, exhibiting no decadence, no infirmities of age, no weakening of his parts, no slowing of his energies, no dulling of his alert and aggressive mind. All things are mortal but the Jew; all other forces pass, but he remains. What is the secret of his immortality?
