The Christians claimed that the Jews were “poisoning food, wells and streams,” as a way to eliminate the Christians and become the dominate religion in Europe (Cohn 3). As a result of this, Jews were taken and “tortured into confessions, rounded up in city squares or their synagogues, and
Due to the Holocaust, the Jews were forced to abandon their religion and faith. Those who decided to keep their practices ultimately suffered the consequences. Many Jewish people were unable to participate in their religious lifestyle owing to the restrictions of the camp, and the accessibility of traditional items.
