    There is only debate about that because of thousands of years of persecution very particular to Jewish history.

    Being that it is one of the few religions that only survived (not because of temples and cities) because they wrote down their customs in a few books that also allow you to criticise and debate about what is written.

    So the only reason why Jewish people survived in certain points was not by grabing on to religion but yes to the culture.

    So the it’s like they where a country without borders or physical location, but the books provided the sense of unity normal countries have, like Spain or Finland, but nearly in written

      Yeah, but that’s true of a lot of religions. Even Scientologists have a culture that transcends borders, but I don’t think we should be making a Scientologist state.

      I really think people are underselling the dangers of religion just because it is popular to like this religion right now.

      Theocracy is bad regardless of who perveys it.
