And the Jews, ravenous as they were for any sign of the long-sought Messiah, were not taken in by either of these two pretenders, or not in large numbers or not for long. Both of them were first encountered by the Jews. Neither of these figures can be called exactly historical but both have one thing in common even in their quasi-mythical dimension. Christianity and Islam, theistic though they may claim to be, are both based on the fetishizing of human primates: Jesus in one case and Mohammed in the other. ![]() “I think I have a very good idea why it is that anti-Semitism is so tenacious and so protean and so enduring.
