You are wrong because staying alive doesn't count as a "profession." Food has inherent value. Sex doesn't. When you take sex and assign it an arbitrary value (i'll have this much sex with you for x amount of berries and nuts) it becomes economic, aka a profession.

>Yeah, no. The oldest profession could have been nothing but the acquiring of food, which can then be distributed and the distributor can expect some kind of reward or compensation - be that in the form of not doing other forms of labour, greater access to living resources/luxuries, or services from other individuals.

What if people exchanged sexual favours for that food?

Yeah, it's a retarded meme. If prostitution was the first profession then how did the clients acquire the resources to pay for the prostitute? By hunting, gathering? The hunting, gathering predate prostitution.

food

Because protestantism is trash, my dude.

I would think it is because faith was stronger for them. We often think of it as an after thought, and it is not taken to seriously.
I always hoped that Christians would take it more seriously because it IS a serious subject. I would think if one was to become a Christian they would do so by making serious changes in their lives that are meaningful and powerful. In my anecdotal experience they don't, it is treated as no more than a label so they can virtue signal.
If I were to join a church it would be a life changing event that would change a lot in my life currently.

This. And not just to make themselves feel better be donating 5 dollars, also the most people to go overseas and help when there is a famine or disaster. Not all, but there is no helping a lot of homeless people, they simply don't want, or squander the help. That's why you always give homeless people food instead of money, because most of them will spend it on alcohol or drugs, that's why many of them are homeless to begin with.

In 1972, at the age of 5, I witnessed Carl Bernstein Senpai become a journalistic hero on my family's TV. My parents explained what was happening in a way that I could understand at such a young age. He not only covered the Watergate break-in, but through masterful investigative journalism was a key figure in exposing it. It was like a combination of truth-finding detective work mixed with socially transformative storytelling to further the causes of justice and honesty. This would define who I was as a person, for the rest of my life I would seek to honor and fulfill the values he had shown me as a young boy.

I would be successful. Though sometimes failing to measure up to his level of mastery, I always sought to improve my work, to bring honest news to the American people. I also noticed that in the preventative side of Carl Senpai's work he was no less masterful, cultivating an image that was a mix of hardened, resolved academic muster and grandfatherly warmth. You wanted to trust him just by looking at him, and he wanted you to make him earn that trust. Just as he had inspired a big part of my career, I decided to pay him an homage by adopting some of the traits of his persona, even fancying that he would notice this tip of the hat and approve. I certainly wouldn't have minded anyone else noticing my honorific imitation.

But then something magical happened, the perfect night and the perfect moment. In the middle of breaking the key part of this generation's Watergate, a story on intelligence issue suggesting coordination between Trump associations and Russians, I had Carl Senpai on as a guest. We were both wearing our signature glasses. In the middle of our discussion he looked at me in the eye through the camera and gave this proud smile. He knew. Having been a parental figure before, he was now like a brother to me. We were peers.

hurr durr

>be feudal monarchy
>trading is below the nobility
>serfs are tied to land
>cities and towns are rarely independent

and then comes a group of ppl who cannot own land, sticks togather and good with money, while nobody wants to do their business

once industrialization and trading becomes very lucrative theres a situation when its all in hands of these ppl roughly around the 19th century
they want in on that
a side effect of the jews being the traders and looked down class of society they often needed education to get by so they become administrators, lawyers, doctors and various intellectual professions which put a spotlight on them
thus making it easy to point fingers at them and basicly be jelous of their wealth

america never had this problem because it didnt exist during feudal ages so society was shaped differently

>>2550807

All these Breitbar news crowds now in power are antisemitic to the max

Because as far as Americans were concerned, Jews were just another breed of European "undesirables", along with the Irish, Slavs, Italians, etc. And just like those groups, Jews eventually got lumped in under the banner of being white along with the anglos and germanic people.

Most of the pre-existing bigotry that existed throughout Europe about Jews as outsiders or child-killing boogeymen didn't make it across the ocean (or died out within a couple generations when it did), so Jewish folk ended up being nothing more than a variety of emigrant that was more or less assimilated in time.
