>Daniel J. Elazar suggests that the Bible indicates that a bright, calculating person who, at times, is less than honest, is preferable as a founder over a bluff, impulsive one who cannot make discriminating choices.
Is Judaism basically 'git gud'? Does it teach "Evil always wins because Good is stupid"?

the choice of Jacob over Esau is justified in genesis by Esau having a canaanite wife.

/pol/ aside, that statement is so blatantly retarded that you'd have to be a Jew intentionally lying to people to say something like that

But I've seen multiple references to it in Jewish magazines and they described it in a similar way, saying 'The Torah teaches'. They seem to focus on the birthright thing.
Can you explain why they would lie? Are you saying it's a Jew smearing Christians?
