Like I said before, if you are not aware of the strains of Christian culture, politics and theology that have contributed to the Christian persecution of Jews over the last 2,000 years, then I can assure you it is a fascinating and disturbing topic and suggest you read up on it.
Because of my studies, I hesitate to paint with a roller those areas demanding a fine-point brush..
Perhaps you should do the same.

If your studies are responsible for this then I think there may be something amiss with them.

pedantry
Really?
Did I mention my many degrees, or the Ivy League college I attended?
The papers I published?
My curriculum vitae?
pedantry?
Give me a break.
You got caught placing Christians in a light most unfavorable, were called on it, and that's pretty much the end of the story... since you couldn't really back it up with anything meaningful other than further distraction.
