Whoa, whoa, whoa!!!

I did not say that I now suddenly have Jewish friends, I was just amused with you telling me that it's not *your* fault that I don't have a Jewish friend to ask.

There was no *abysmal reading comprehension, or pathological lying* on my part Duchess64. 😉

The one that gets me is Christians rationalizing hatred of Jews saying 'Jews Killed Jesus'.

Like Jews in Century 21 would have any culpability for something that happened 2000 years ago right or wrong.

Any Christian 'hatred' of Jews must be some fringe element I've never heard of.

Most Christians (in America, at least) support Israel.

You certainly have it in for fringes.

thank you. I wasn't aware of the compilations.
I figured it was accurate though.

And hyperbole, even though it may be a comfortable garment for you, does not become you.

As is frequently the case, D64 is correct that Christian persecution of Jews has a very long
history and is far from uncommon today and that you probably should be aware of that....
But the WAY that D64 goes about expressing that is over the top, unjustified and uncalled for.

For my part I will remind you that there are a couple of billion Christians and you know well a few
hundred at most. And those few hundred are likely drawn from a fairly small geographical area and
are likely to be of similar beliefs and are thus unlikely to be a representative sample of the range
of beliefs of Christianity in it's entirety... Thus demonstrating again the dangers of extrapolating from
personal experience and anecdote instead of working from representative statistics and other founded
evidence.

Not that you would ever do that 😉
