Centuries of pograms and enslavement, perhaps? Jewish history is pretty fucked, honestly. And yet many, especially orthodox, truly see themselves as God’s chosen people and superior beings to other ethnicities. It’s an odd paradox.

Egypt was for more than a hundred years under occupation. It is quite possible that the occupants were the ancestors of the Jewish people. They were not slaves there.

Minuses… People believe that the religious books are something more than collections of fairy tales. But the religious fairy tales were created by other people, with vested interests. If I like reading fairy tales by Jim Butcher, it does not mean that everything described by him is real.

Did you know nothing in life is based off nothing. There has to be an element of truth in every single fairy tale. You can name a couple and we can get your opinions out of the way. What do you believe? What have you been taught? I look forward to your answer

You are right there are grains of truth in every story. I have not been taught, I have read many sources. And my interpretation of those events looks very plausible, much better than the moving story of the Jewish slaves in ancient Egypt.

Maybe their parents did. Nobody governing right now was alive to experience the holocaust except in history books
