The passage quoted at every Lent sermon for hundreds of years, to help re-enforce the epithet of christ-killers, and to inspire good christians to go to their local ghettos and enjoy a fine, bracing after-church jewslaughtering.

My goodness, but you are the one seething in your own hate. I haven't an anti-semitic bone in my body.

I observe the only bile spewing here emanates for you.

A resident FR conspirazoid, you know, Bush is evil, Saddam and Sons were innocent, the CIA is conspiring with OBL, contempt for worship.

A Simple Contrarian.

Excuse me, but criticizing your holy book is hardly the same thing as "seething in your own hate".

Good for you. That is probably what the vicars of the spanish inquistion said to their victims--and I expect they meant it just as wholeheartedly. It's what the Popes always said just before they passed yet another vicious encyclical scourging yet more upon the jews, in yet more inventive ways. Christians say jews are not saved, and where secularly christian countries existed, up until quite recently, they responded to this by blighting the lives of jews. You can have all the good will in the world, but if you refuse to face the consequences of your convictions, it hardly matters.

Than you are not very observant.
