If paranoia is remembering my sister-in-law whom I never met, a toddler of two and a half years old, killed for only one reason, along with her grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins - that the biggest and longest standing hatred - hatred of Jews for killing Christ - was still going strong in this century, then, yes, you can call me paranoid. If paranoia is watching the Islamic terrorists adopting Christian blood libels against Jews as their own is paranoia, then I'm indeed paranoid. If I'm outraged that Jews would be accused by the Arab world of perpetrating 9/11 and that people would actually believe it, then I'm paranoid. If it frightens me to see a minister put a sign up on his lawn saying Jews killed Christ after he saw the movie, then I am paranoid. If I am sick of seeing synagogues and Jewish community centers and their visitors fire-bombed in the U.S., Great Britain, Russia, the Ukraine, Turkey, France, and Argentina, than, yes, I'm paranoid. Most would say I'm just paying attention.

The way you are heaping everyone together, it is obvious that you have a real tough time telling your friends from your enemies.

Oh, come off it--that's nuts. Hitler was not a Christian, he hated real Christians almost as much as Jews. Why must Jews always reduce everything to the Holocaust? One begins to suspect it fits in with the myth of Jewish choseness. That's probably the real problem--and it pushes other people away. It's become a self-fulfilling prophesy--you clobber the other guy and when he strikes back you call it "anti-Semitism"--and get to feel special, victimized, isolated. This is what's happening now with this film. The Jewish intellectuals who are criticizing it so vehemently are people of influence--one professor from Berkely recently called the New Testament "a nasty little document"--but they are rapidly alienating Christians. Jewish producers, Jewish writers, Jewish historians, Jewish museum curators--all have taken plenty of pot-shots at Christians, in particular linking Christianity itself to the Holocaust. There's a helluva lot of anti-Christian garbage being hurled at us on a regular basis by this culture--and most Christians have restrained a natural instinct to express anger for fear of being called anti-semitic. But the gloves are now coming off--you will hear from us, I guarantee it.

Truth! Got nothing I can add to your above post.
