Due to the concerning rise of anti-Semitism, I'm considering making a video talking about the Talmud and its role in Rabbinic tradition, and I also hope to address anti-Semitic conspiracy theories on the Talmud. With that being said, I need the WORST (and most prevalent) anti-Semitic takes and conspiracy theories you have heard about the Talmud. I already have:

- Talmud tells Jews to kill Goyim (among other theories about goyim)
- Talmud says Jesus is burning in Hell
- Talmud says Mary was a prostitute

Are there any others y'all have heard? I need to finish my bingo card.

I just watched the "archaeology" adventure movie, "The Fountain of Youth" with Natalie Portman and John Krasinski. Overall, it was a lame movie. However, the thing that bothered me most was that the supposed "Egyptian hieroglyphs" in "secret hallways" under the pyramids were actually NOT WRITTEN IN EGYPTIAN, but they were written in a hodgepodge of CUNEIFORM, LINEAR B, ARCHAIC GREEK, and ETRUSCAN.

They had one job, and they screwed up SPECTACULARLY. All they had to do was google "Egyptian hieroglyphs" for five minutes, copy and paste for the prop department, and they'd be fine (sure some Egyptologists would probably get frustrated, but at least it's Egyptian). How does a screw up this bad even happen? Even Monty Python and "The Mummy" got their ancient languages correct.

After a year hiatus, I'm coming back with content soon. Currently writing the script, and I will also talk about why I've been gone so long in the video (in addition to the actual content). Here is a sneak peek for the next video on Moab!
