<< I had been out around town doing things. I mused on my post and expected to be "flamed". I knew the import of what I said could be badly misconstrued. I wished I had left the name Christians out of it though. >>
I trust you didn't take my response as a "flaming."
I believe your post was inspired and that you put your finger precisely upon the start-point of Morgantaler's psychopathology.
I am a passionate Zionist, spent the Yom Kipur War in Cairo, watched the Israeli raid on Sadam's Osirak nuclear facility, near Baghdad, from four miles away -- and my church [Saint Andrews Anglican Cathedral in Singapore] has very close ties with and very deep roots in Israel.
And I am horrified at the number of Jewish people among my friends and aquaintances who believe -- as does Morgataler -- that "Christians" perpetrated the Holocaust.
Oh no, definitely not a "flaming" from you. Just we have to be careful. FR had persons years ago trying to smear it with anti semitism- did not fly. Thank heaven you have Jewish friends. Many, moons ago served on the Suez Canal Zone with the British Army- found myself not prejudiced- if I was, I just would have been like many of the lads. Just in case we offend protocol by using this as "chat" I would be pleased for a private reply- if you should continue. Cheers
