My name is Elisheva Placeres Madrid-y-Acevo. My four generation ancestors were from Spain. Two sisters, one married to Bauer and the other married to Acevo migrated to Mexico City (Bauer) and her sister (Acevo) to Puebla, Puebla City. They escaped at the beginning of WWII. Placeres Madrid, my Papa’s surname and Acevo my mother’s surname. Traditionally, we honor both in our maiden names. I believe that our family, Jews, were chosen by G-d to be His people. The other side of that, particularly when we celebrate Pesach, we have survived all peoples who have tried to annihilate us.
Hello from Hungary.
I am Jon. Raised Christian, I always had a neutral positive view of the Jews. Then slowly, I grew more compassion, specially after being exposed so much to holocaust content. Then later at the age of 30, kabbalah drew a bridge between Christianity, Judhaism and science, I was finally able to fully relate with Jews, and its ancestry we proudly come from.
When I am asked about the Jewish problem, I can only answer this: If there is hatred, it is from indifference, and a desire to lower a group, to gain something from another. Narcissism vs empath. Actually, its quite complex that I can’t relate to antisemitism, to truly grasp its roots.
From a kabbalistic lens, I can see the Tikkun behind all this. Its just tragic how slow learner we are. Fortunately, technology and AI could give some hope. I understand things happen so we exist. But its time to choose wiser…
The Jews were chosen to lead the nations to spirituality. When others see the Jews divided it seems that the hope for them to attain spirituality is dead. If the Jews can’t do it then how can anyone else? This of course is subconscious but leads to Jew hate. That’s why it’s a gut feeling and not rational.
