I was taking a religion course about Judaism a few years ago that was taught by rabbi. Even though I am an atheist I find learning about religions interesting. Anyway, towards the end of this class the topic of Jesus came up. A girl in the class asked the question
"So WHY didn't the Jews accept Jesus as their Messiah?" She said this in a rather snobby way that made me suspect she was a christian.
The instructor/rabbi answered:
"Why WOULD the Jews accept Jesus as their Messiah?" he then went on to say that after Jesus was crucified, nothing changed for the Jewish community, they were still dominated by the romans and things just generally still sucked.
