Truth about Jewish Expulsions

[Stubble]

But the real reason that Jews have been persecuted for millennia is that they refused to convert to a religion that they did not believe was true.

Are you a Christian or religious in any way? If somebody tried to force you to convert to their religion and you didn't believe in it, what would you do? Would you just reluctantly submit to stay out of trouble? What if you had very strong convictions in your belief system?

If somebody threatened to physically hurt you unless you publicly proclaimed that the Holocaust was real, would you do it?

Tell that to Sabbatai Zevi.

He had no problem with conversion, as did many others, because conversion to a jew is nothing.

Tell that to Sabbiti Zevi.

He had no problem with conversion, as did many others, because conversion to a jew is nothing.

A small number of Jews have converted over the years but not many. If Jewish people were very susceptible to adopting other people's beliefs or just going with the flow, they wouldn't exist today.

There's a certain stubbornness that is required and encouraged to be a Jew, for somewhat self evident reasons, but it is what it is.

Shabtai Tzvi was considered a heretical Jew, by today's standards, and may have even suffered mental illness.

But you still didn't answer my question.

OK, so I guess you then understand why the Jews have been persecuted for thousands of years. They held different beliefs than the prevailing regimes and didn't want to adopt a belief system that they didn't agree with.
