Why are so many people anti-Semitic? I guess in the early Christian years they were hated for rejecting Christ, something they would not be able to make up for simply by being social conservatives. However, today, in the present, those who hate Jews usually hate them because they are disproportionately involved in liberal and leftist causes. Jews are viewed as being behind Communism, feminism, gay rights, racial equality, and a general anti-Christianity.
Maybe these accusations are true, but they are true for liberal Jews only. Orthodox Jewry has always shunned these movements. The problem is that Orthodox Jewry has not been loud enough in their condemnation of liberalism and leftism, it was until now the liberal Jews who took the stage.
But that is all changing now that the Orthodox have finally started promoting the Noahide Laws. The Noahide movement only started as early as the 60s or 70s, and until recently there were few Rabbis involved in disseminating Noahide information, though they did make inroads in government by getting the U.S. congress and president to recognize the Noahide Laws as the foundation of American civilization.
The Noahide Laws appeared in the Talmud more than 1600 years ago, when Christianity was young and Islam had not even been invented yet. What if Jews had preached the Noahide Laws from the beginning? First, could it have tempted Christians and Muslims away from their religion and into joining the Noahide community? Yes, it could have, and there would have been less Muslims and less Christians. With more help on their side, the Jews could have easily fared better during the middle ages.
But again, the problem today is liberal Jews. What would have happened if the Orthodox had been preaching the Noahide Laws all this time? What if the Jews were viewed as a source of social conservatism rather than leftism? What if Jews were busy opposing gay marriage and abortion? What if Jews took a hardline against idolatry and said it should not be permitted in society? What if Jews told Christians they should not allow blasphemy in their midst. Isn't this good advice on how to maintain a healthy civilization? What would have been the Christian or Muslim argument against the Noahide Laws? Really nothing.
If Jews had been promoting traditional values since the start and especially the Noahide Laws, I suspect there would be many more Noahides today and the Christians and Muslims and White Nationalists would not despise Judaism as much as they do. Jews can correct this measure by promoting the Noahide Laws louder than liberal Jews shout their leftism. When Noahidism is taught by every Rabbi, anti-Semitism will all but disappear.
Jews have not been fit for the purpose of promoting the Noahide laws, which was why God had to reveal the Koran.
