Interesting thread.

I was raised jewish... and pretty much knew 2 kinds of "hatred"... the pure ignornace kind where stupidity dominated, and the jealousy kind, where anger towards success, possessions and tight knit community dominated. I fortunately never encountered the 3rd kind of hatred while growing up which I consider to be about the religious aspect of it only which obviously dates back centuries.

I see more hatred towards the jewish community than anything else regarding alleged "elitism" and how several jewish people only help one another out and shut out the rest. The irony here being that I can't really attribute any of my personal or professional successes thru nepotism or community and actually in my adult life I've denounced all religion and am agnostic.
