But that Holocaust survivor in Denver, thinking back, had reason to shudder, don't you think?

Sure, but some comfort should be taken in the knowledge that the person now lives in a country whose citizens will risk their very lives (as members of my family have done) for their religious freedom.

I, like most conservatives, have an aversion to those who overplay their victimization. I see nothing but tragedy on this thread stemming from the comments made by Abe Foxman. Even a dispassionate observer can see that the blowback among conservative Christians has been severe.

This schism between Jews and Christians only empowers the common enemy we both fight.

They think so. And guess what, the schism exists only between the few who were schismized before the film. It gives them an excuse to come out of the closet, that's all.

I am not associating with Foxman's comments. I am only talking about a Holocaust survivor's response to the swastika on the synagogue. I do not think it had anything to do with the Passion movie. I do not think that the Passion movie nor Mel Gibson is antisemitic.
