I'm starting to understand - - I see how you could think that Christians view Jews today as responsible for Jesus' death, because that's the way you think about things - you believe in mass guilt and inherited guilt, 

For centuries the European Church taught about Jews as Christ killers . Why is this so hard for you to admit? The whole idea of "Christ Killers" was to impute collective guilt upon Jews.

and you hold christianity responsible for the crimes of people in the past who happened to be christians.

Not really but every people has a history

[shhrubbery!]

Christians came here from Europe (as did many Jews) to get away from Europe. What religious persecution was (and is) done in Europe is not and never has been done here in America.

Sure, there are a few anti-Semitic nuts in America, but they are not Christian, no matter what they call themselves.

I saw The Passion today. There is nothing anti-Semitic in it, ZERO -- unless something evil was slipped in Aramaic. And that I would very strongly doubt.
