I'm... actually... I don't beleive in any religion. I always took it as a method to moderate and control the people.
 
Bah ok I can't remember everything but heres what wikipedia says...

Judas Maccabeus (or Judah the Maccabee from the Hebrew יהודה המכבי transliteration: Yehudah HaMakabi) translation: "Judah the Hammer" was the third son of the Jewish priest Mattathias. He led the Maccabean revolt against the Seleucid Empire (167-160 BCE). His epithet Maccabeus is from the Syriac word maqqaba (hammer), and this name was granted to him in recognition of his ferocity in battle.

In 165 BCE, Antiochus IV Epiphanes assumed the emperorship of the Seleucid Empire and began a campaign of assimilation against the Judeans. In an effort to unify the Greek elements of his empire, Antiochus determined to destroy the Jewish faith and Hellenize the sons of Jacob. However, a priest from Modiin, Mattathias, resisted assimilation and instigated a rebellion when he killed one of the emperor's officers. The resistance he started was to be nurtured and led by his son, who would go on to join Joshua, Gideon and David as one of the greatest warriors in Jewish history.[/b]

What education value did you get out of those stories. I mean I can understand teaches some fundamentals like why Jewish has a menorah, and basic stuff like that, but telling Torah stories?

Just remember, religion is more about what is in your heart, than what people tell you to become.
