How has your religion grown over the centuries to expand into controlling every media source, government agency and a-list celebrity. I would like to start my own cult like the jews have so I need some tips on how to do it please!

I hope your question is based upon sincere admiration and not anti-Semitism! I also hope that you're not really dreaming of trying to control the world, which is really a job "cut out" for the real God, and would infer you need to speak to a psychologist asap! Judaism did not start as a cult, but by a mass Divine Revelation when God miraculously took us out of Egypt and spoke to more than 2 million people at Mount Sinai, and subsequently spoke to thousands of Jewish prophets over the centuries (all accepted by Christianity and Islam alike). These things cannot be faked or forged! Similarly the "Chosen"ness of the People of Israel, and the uniqueness of Jewish history is not something that can be emulated or done by anyone but God, and by the way, over history often involved more suffering than personal or national gain! Centuries of the Jewish scholastic tradition and the stress we always placed on learning Torah and intellectual and spiritual pursuits also were important factors. I can just suggest "if you can't beat them, join them", for although we don't want to convert anyone, anyone who sincerely wants to be Jewish is welcome to join our religion and nation! But may I begin with a more humble and practical suggestion, to at least try raising your children by educating them with the Jewish IDEALS as found in the Book of Books, and with a love for the people of Israel.
