Why Do Jews Sacrifice Animals? | |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 25390958 12/09/2012 11:42 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I suspect because they feel superior to them. Apparently their tribal deity needs animals to suffer and go to waste. It's a weird thing to do to waste ones efforts in order to please an entity that could imagine them into existence. Really I dont have a clue, as it's a stupid act unless those that choose to find it makes them closer to god, but, in the end, there is very little getting close to god if you look at their heros. Most of that is taking other peoples stuff for themselves. THAT seems to be sacrament, then, as now.... |

When you give something up of value, an expectation of something in return is created. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 29402464 A rather insightful observation. Another interpretation of the chosen people, who in effect are demanding they be chosen for perpetual world rule by trading the equivalent of 23 dollars worth of beads to their personal god |

God freed the Israelites from Egypt because they were trying to escape Sheol on their own. The Jews are still trying to escape Sheol with their sacrifices because they never accepted the sacrificed lamb who has already redeemed them and opened the seals |

(Genesis 3:21) This was actually the world's first animal sacrifice and it was done in order to "cover" up Adam and Eve's sin, or shame. Later in Israel's history, God commanded them to sacrifice animals at His Tabernacle and/or Temple to make atonement for the sins of Israel. Sometimes you have to run, before you can walk. |

Quoting: mopar28m All other sacrifices require a temple & a levitical priesthood. So on the off chance that those practices are somehow *not* obsolete in light of Christ's offering at Calvary, doesn't this make jews everywhere non-compliant with the Torah's demands? Wake up, folks. |
| Yes I Did !!!! User ID: 29497151 12/10/2012 03:14 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Every time I've read the Bible, I feel so sorry for the animals !! When God created the animals, he blessed them, and he talked to them - he told them to be fruitful and multiply. He put MAN in charge of taking care of the animals....not eat them !! He specifically told man what he could eat - the grain and the fruit, and the nuts, etc - NOT ANIMALS. I don't know WHO decided that it was OK to kill and eat animals, or WHO decided that it was OK to sacrifice them (which means cutting their throats, and then disemboweling them... then throwing their blood around in a ritual) but it was NOT MY Heavenly Father. My Heavenly Father/Creator is NOT a god of confusion. If he said care for the animals.... that's what he meant. If he said, don't eat the animals... that's what he meant. Who was it that began masquerading as God the Father and Creator of all that is ?????????? There's been a terrible mistake or lies.
