> In July 2012, Tablet Magazine, an online Jewish publication, quoted the Public Religion Research Institute’s 2012 Jewish Values Report: "American Jews are overwhelmingly in favor of abortion in all (49%) or most (44%) cases. There is little denominational or demographic variation on this level of overall support." The author went on to summarize:
 
> "That’s 93%, folks. The report goes to explain that while opinions are more varied by political affiliation among Jews, over 75% of Jewish Republicans believe that abortion should be legal in all or most cases. From the data, it seems that Wasserman Schultz isn’t saying anything that isn’t reflective of the vast majority of Jewish opinion. In fact, it seems that access to abortion is the issue upon which the most Jews agree." [37]
 
> Polls of Jews in America report that 88% of American Jews are pro-choice.[38]
 
I don't understand this, Judaism itself sounds like it would be conservative. Is it just a ton of Jews that have drifted away, like "liberal Christians" but who still call themselves Jewish?
 
Of course it fits in with being a kind of curse from God, or allowing them to fall in to error for rejecting Christ.
 
But still, I don't understand the history and why this political shift came about.

The Pharisees were the most strict of Judean tribes, yet they had a very "dont care" stance about anyone else; "thank God im not them" was a core thought. After the Talmud, mastering the ways of deceiving God without actually being against His laws (in their own minds) coupled with paranoia, incest and mental disorders, led them to morph into a parasitic class.
