Louis Farrakhan’s takes on white people and Jews are way out there, but so is his knowledge of Scripture, which is weird for a guy who calls himself a minister. In his latest hateful rant the Nation of Islam leader says that Jesus basically committed suicide because he knew his successor, presumably Jesus 2, would show up 2000 years later to destroy the Jews. Blasphemy goes so nicely with anti-Semitism, doesn’t it?
This was posted on Twitter, but no worries. It’s not like Farrakhan is a conservative “dead naming” a tranny so he’s not going to have his account terminated.
God does not love this world. God never sent Jesus to die for this world. Jesus died because he was 2,000 years too soon to bring about the end of the civilization of the Jews. He never was on no cross. There was no Calvary for that Jesus.

“God does not love this world. God never sent Jesus to die for this world. Jesus died because he was 2,000 years too soon to bring about the end of the civilization of the Jews. He never was on no cross. There was no Calvary for that Jesus,” said Farrakhan.
It’s already extremely offensive to both Christians and Jews, but somehow Farrakhan was able to ramp things up.
“Early one Saturday morning our savior taught us, when he found out he was 2000 years too soon to end the civilization of the Jews, he decided that he would give his life for the truth that he taught. That his name would live until the one he pre-figured would come into existence,” Farrakhan said.
You got all that? According to Farrakhan Jesus didn’t die on the cross, but rather chose to die because he knew 2000 years later his successor would show up and destroy the Jews. Farrakhan proves this is true because he says it’s in the Quran.
To be fair, I’ve never read the Muslim holy book, but somehow I doubt it has a passage with the plot outline for Jesus 2: Electric Boogaloo. And if it does, that’s one more reason why Islam is a screwy religion.
I don’t have to be a theologian or expert on the Quran to spot at least one serious flaw in Farrakhan’s interpretation: It’s his theory that Jesus essentially took his own life because he knew his successor would come 2000 years later to take out the Jews. It’s been 2019 years since Jesus died and so far we haven’t seen the Jew-killing Jesus 2. Either he’s late or Farrakhan is full of shit. I’m going with the option B.
And speaking of being full of shit, Farrakhan refers to Jesus as “our savior”, but he’s a Muslim. Islam recognizes Jesus as a prophet, but not the Messiah. Maybe he was being sarcastic. He’s so filled with hate that it’s hard to tell with him.
So if Jesus didn’t die on the cross, where did he die? Luckily, Farrakhan has that covered:
“Jesus didn’t die on Cavalry. He died in front of an old Jew’s store that was boarded up,” Farrakhan said.
Interesting. Farrakhan is saying that Jesus died in front of one of those Jewish “Going Out of Business” electronics stores like from You Don’t Mess With The Zohan. I wonder if he got some muchentuchen from the Phantom before he snuffed out his own life.
The question is, does this blasphemy and anti-Semitism violate Twitter’s policies against hate speech and violence? I think if it had come from a white conservative it would, but obviously Farrakhan is a black leftist so he’s probably within the guidelines. If he had called Chelsea Manning by his birth name or told some out of work reporters to learn to code he might be in trouble, but this is nothing.
