thank you, I know that religions disagree with each other and that anti-semitism is deep, vile racism (as I pointed out), however, I asked Now if someone used the terms "Jews" in the religious sense that ZC uses for "Catholics" and said some of the things ZC said here against Catholics, would it be anti-Semitic?

like if someone said what ZC said "The ____ despises the simple people of rural America while celebrating pompous intellectuals and third world illiterates" -- and replaced the __ with "Jew" would that be considered anti-Semitic?

The ____ despises the simple people of rural America while celebrating pompous intellectuals and third world illiterates

If he had said that of Chinese, Cubans, Arabs, African-Americans, Jews, etc. - it would have been pulled as racism or anti-Semitism.

But not if said about a group of believers.

On "open" Religion Forum threads, the following statements (though tacky) are allowed: "Scientologists are crazy" "Mormons are irrational" "Protestants are going to hell" "Catholics despise simple people."
