In antiquity, the Great Pyramid of Giza the only wonder from the original list still standingthe statue of Zeus at Olympia, the Colossus of Rhodes a new[1] gigantic, version of which is being built todayand others were among the occupants of the list.
In fact, it is not a single wonder, but a whole list of them, but they all revolve around one question: Why do people hate Jews?
Other people have sprung up and held their torch high for a time, but it burned out… The Jew saw them all, beat them all, and is now what he always was, exhibiting no decadence, no infirmities of age, no weakening of his parts, no slowing of his energies… All things are mortal but the Jew; all other forces pass, but he remains.
What is the secret of his immortality? Some were even aware of the fact that the Jews are indestructible, yet could not help themselves, as if compelled by a force greater than themselves.
But he, too, everntually failed and will go down in histroy as the epitome of evil. Hated or loved, Jews were always treated as different. They are judged by different standards, revered, admired, and hated more than any other nation on the face of the Earth.
British Bishop, Thomas Newton wrote about Jews: A people such as this can never disappear. The Jew is eternal. He is the embodiment of eternity.
The are as many reasons for hating Jews as there are people. Everything that upsets, hurts, or displeases people they often attribute to the Jews. Jews have been blamed for manipulating the media to their needs, usury, blood libels of various forms, well poisoning, dominating slave trade, disloyalty to their host countries, organ harvesting [7] and AIDS spreading.
Jews have been labeled warmongers and cowards, racists and cosmopolitans, spineless and unbending, and the list could go on forever. Clearly, Jew-hatred is irrational and deep.
A Deeper Reason Behind Hatred of Jews The most important point to take from this brief review of anti-Semitism is that if we are to find the reason for anti-Semitism, we must look beneath the surface.
As we have seen, rationalizations cannot explain the existence, persistence, and diversity of Jew-hatred. A deeper root is at play here. When anti-Semitism awakens, it is justified according to its particular milieu and therefore takes on different forms and manifestations at different times.

Yet all residents of the region shared two important traits. First, they lived and worked in a natural environment unlike any other in the American colonies. Second. If a single problem has vexed biologists for the past couple of hundred years, surely it concerns the relation between biology and physics.
Many have struggled to show that biology is, in one sense or another, no more than an elaboration of physics, while others have yearned to identify a “something more” that, as a matter of fundamental principle, differentiates a tiger — or an amoeba.
