Reply To: The Torah is Emes

It is also known as the “miracle of the sun” you can google it if you like. however I dont feel that this is the proper forum to write other relions beleifs in to much detail.

I cannot google it on my computor because I’m on a network and can only access like twenty sites or so. I cannot google anything.

When I’m at the library I will try to do that.

Okay everybody, I forgot the Aztecs were a civilization at the time the Spanish arrived, but it is still highly likely that at the birth of their culture they were still tribes, but let me change the scenerio.

The tribal priest chants incessantly under the dark sky next to the altar, where a bound maiden will soon be sacrificed to appease the gods. And then in a low voice the priest tells the barbarian pagans of the secret that was passed down by his forfathers about the “sun god” that brought the people to Mexico.

The reason their culture was reduced to nothing was because they were quite literaly wiped out by the invading spanish, with the only few survivors being those that converted to christianity. It has to do with the fact that the spanish had better weapons then them, it has nothing to do with the strength of their beleifs.

Did you read what it says in the pesukim I brought down above?

“And those of you who were left over…”

Do you think the Aztecs would practice their culture in secret like the Jews did when the Romans forbade them to make a bris, to observe Shabbos, or learn Torah?

The Jews survived not one conquest, but two, where thousands upon thousands of Jews were killed or sold off as slaves.

The Jews were dispersed between the nations and the Aztecs remained in their homeland. and yet, Judaism prevailed.

The Jews also went through forced conversions and yet Judaism prevailed.

Whole Jewish communities were murdered by the Crusaders and the Cossacks. The Jews were offered the chance to save their lives would they convert to Christianity and most chose death. And Judaism and the Jews perservered.

After the Holocaust, Eurpean Jewry was decimated, and our grandfathers started from scratch to build new frum families and communities.

The Aztecs crumbled precisely because they had no real faith because their religion was not the truth. The Jews have survived and persevered with their faith even though they have gone through what the Aztecs did hundreds of times over.
