There is an interesting sect of Jews that call themselves Karaites.
They claim they are the true Jews, that Rabbinic Judaism is deluded, corrupt and have left the faith.
They have many interesting points as was pointed out in the prior post and video of Nehemiah Gordon.
Ponder this.

Well, there is no longer Jew nor Greek. All are called to follow Christ. All other religions are false and only offer bondage, and eternal death.

There are a lot of sects of various religions who claim to be the “true” one. Christianity is unique in that most of us don’t believe it’s being in the right sect that saves us or pleases God. Instead, believing in and obeying Jesus is what saves us and what pleases God.

Is this a bit of Deja-vu all over again?

Karate Judaism has really kicked the Rabbinic system ;)

This group has always intrigued me, because they accept only the same parts of Scripture which we also accept as the OT. They are not well regarded by the rest of Judaism, however. In fact, they do not allow intermarriage with the Karaites, regarding them basically as Gentile. (in my understanding)

This article is so sad, it is essentially what happened about 2,000 years ago. Profound.

It has been a while since I posted here, but this is something I know about. I looked seriously at Karaite Judaism and I visited their synagogue in Daly City, CA twice, so I can answer any questions.

I prefer Karaite Judaism to Rabbinic Judaism because Karaites reject the Talmud. But all forms of Judaism share a racist interpretation of the Old Testament which I disagree with. I wrote my view here:
