The vast majority of Jewish people in the world realize this is wrong and ignore this part of their ancient teachings. Don’t go shaming the whole religion over some violent extremists.
Israel was also secular when it was founded. Look it up. This is 100% on their government and right wing extremists and not Judiasm as a whole.
It's in the religion's text. "Judaism" is complicated as it can either mean religion, culture or ethnicity/race, but they said "religion teaches", so we can assume that they're referring to the practicing religious category.
Why shouldn't I shame the religion because some people choose to ignore part of it?
Because if the majority of people following a particular religion reject a prior view as false or wrong, then arguably that view is no longer part of the religion.
Religions aren't crisp, unchanging, monolithic entities where everybody believes the same thing forever. If we're talking about judaism in the sense of the views and practices jewish people actually subscribe to, then that seems like we are referring to beliefs they actually hold in a mainstream/current sense, not beliefs they previous held but now reject?
So you're saying that because a religion allows you to choose which of God's commandments, carefully passed down through every generation, you personally want to follow based on your gut feeling, can't be shamed?
Why should the ones who choose to deny parts of their religion be seen as representative of it over those who've chosen to uphold them?
No, that is not what I said.
I definitely answered this in my original comment.
I do my best to always use the word Zionist before the word Israeli.
Israel's secularism is irrelevant to the overall racist ideology of Zionism that permeates Israeli society.
