Judaism (n.) is dangerous to the 19th century in that the existence of the jews and their religion makes possible the renaissance of the bourgeois spirit after it had lain dormant for some 2,000 years.
Judaism (n.) is not a manifestation of theological belief or cultural heritage: It is a form of social behavior which,despite its name, had little to do with the jewish community. It was rather a product of the rapacious new forces of capitalism, which were enslaving jews as well as Christians.
Judaism (n.) is not a religion or a race, but rather the embodiment of civil society; a principle that makes alienation possible.
Judaism (n.) is a concept that, in the 19th century, had ceased to be a religious, ethnic, or cultural. It has become transformed in to an economic and social category transcending national boundaries. 'Bourgeois society is constantly producing the jew out of its own inner being'.
Judaism (n.) is not to be condemned as an ethic community, but as a spirit, the 'spirit of judaism' which, which, while common among jews, was also gaining many adherents among Christians.
Judaism's (n.) secular basis is practical concern and selfishness. Usury is the secular object of its worship, and money is its secular God.
