Does anyone know the real answer? - Simon123 - 10-09-2019

Hi, 

I am not a Jew my self, however i have been interested in this religion for a very long time. I'm a 30y old male from Sweden who is looking for answers that no one seems to be able to give me. I have formed discussions about Jews at work, with my family and a lot of other people over the years.

The thing i can't get to grips with is this: WHY are Jews followed everywhere? I have some Jewish friends who are super nice, they do not openly promote their religion and does not want any part of wars or conflicts. From what i can tell Jews have been one of the most "nice" religions compared to Christianity or Islam. So i really don't understand....

Now i get that Jews are a select group and that you are "the selected ones", but i have no idea why your people are followed and hunted around the world, in different places seemingly without provocation by so many different groups of people? 

Can someone please point me in the right direction to learn more about this topic? I am genuinely curious.

Hello Simon and welcome to the forum!

Just to let you know, the first 3 posts are moderated to help keep out spam and bots.

As for your question, I'm not sure there is a real answer.

I just think this is nothing new and is something that has been going on since we became "a people".

There probably is more than one reason why, each being real for that person or group.

When you say "followed," do you mean "persecuted"?
