Noob If you are attempting to defend Wikipedia on FR you MIGHT want to reconsider. It’s a George Soros propaganda vehicle and we don’t cotton to Soros supporting trolls.

You actually Wikipedia is a professional site? You have “faith” in it? Yes; it gets “cleaned up”. Soros minions do the cleaning.

That is the Blood Libel, the original use of the term.

If that sentence made it to a Wikipedia site, I am sure that it would be fixed. But since it is here on FR, it will remain forever.

I know that we have an instance of blood libel against the Jews as early as Chaucer, in the late 14th century, but the Cathars were around a couple hundred years earlier.

Do we have an OED-type survey of the first use of the term (NOT from Wikipedia)? What would the equivalent be in Latin or another language, for uses in Europe?

Not much of a defense. I was out in the open. You used Alinski to turn the accusation back on me. That's classic Alinski.

You're right. I AM free to hit "Abuse". And free to check your posting history. And I'm NOT the only poster suspicious of your defense of Soros Wikipedia.

If your are using Windows, no special software is required to do a screen capture.

To do a screen capture, first press the “Print Screen” key on your keyboard.

Then open “Paint” on your “Accessories” menu.

When “Paint” opens, select “Paste” under the “Edit” tab (or simultaneously press the “Ctrl” and “V” keys on your keyboard). The entire screen image will appear inside the Paint workframe. It can be edited by using the tools on the left hand side bar.

To save it, select “Save As” under the “File” tab.

Give it a file name when the “Save As” box opens and select the format the picture will be saved in. In selecting the format, keep in mind that only GIF and JPEG files can be posted to the Internet.

Seems complicated but, with a little practice, this process can be done very rapidly. There is no image appearing on the Internet that cannot be captured using this process.

Hope this helps.

the open source editing on Wikipedia is overwhelmingly liberal-slanted

Since anyone can edit, then conservatives should be more active, right?

Go correct the disinformation on the page about FR and KEEP correcting it when they change it back. After 3 days when they lock you out, come back and tell us how easy it is to make corrections.

Nope. Didn't bother after all the other Freepers that tried got locked out.

Why do you, as a newbie, think you know everything there is to know? You've been here 6 months. Freepers have tirelessly tried to correct info. They get shutdown. You CANNOT beat the marxist/socialists on their home turf.

You are either a troll or VERY naive.

Is this really true?

“Political commentator Sean Hannity stated on his radio program that “everyone I knew basically left because of so much childish, immature personal attacks. The propensity there to eat their own. And a lot of the people— most of the people—I knew that were on it left.”[55]

Of course, the most famous instance of the Blood Libel occurs in the New Testament:

Matthew 27: (New International Version)

24. When Pilate saw that he was getting nowhere, but that instead an uproar was starting, he took water and washed his hands in front of the crowd. “I am innocent of this man's blood,” he said. “It is your responsibility!”

25. All the people answered, “Let his blood be on us and on our children!”

http://bible.cc/matthew/27-25.htm

If you go to the link and scroll down to the commentary section, you will find several entries equating the subsequent suffering of the Jews with the crowd's utterance of the blood libel. And such views among Christians has been the source of a lot of mischief (and much worse) toward Jews over the centuries.

However, it should be noted that as early as the 13th century A.D., the Catholic Church's doctrine on the blood libel had shifted. If I understand the catechism correctly, it has been (and still is) the Church's position for a very long time that the Jews (and everybody else involved in the Crucifixion) lacked the actual power to kill Christ. He instead choose death willingly as a blemishless and perfect sacrifice for the expiation of Humanity's sins. Consequently, it is a libel (a false accusation) to assign ultimate responsibility to the Jews for Christ's Crucifixion.

It is in this, more nuanced, sense that Sarah Palin called the attribution of responsibility for the Tucson shootings last Saturday to the Right Wing a “blood libel.”

Another Alinski tactic? Change the subject?

Go to wiki and try to change disinformation. Let us know how long it took you to get locked out.

I'll buy that.

Why do you, as a newbie, think you know everything there is to know?

Never claimed that I do. I am open to discussion and I try never to make it personal. If someone calls me a lying marxist troll noobie, it rolls right off my back and the next day I won't even remember your handle.

You were given the truth about wikipedia and tried to defend them anyway. Again, you are either a retread or naive.
