HA! Someone's been reading our posts here. American Christians are a "soft target" and a "soft touch." That's why it's so convenient and risk-free for human vermin like Foxman to attack them.
I have to assume from the "Passion" controversy that too many American Jews don't know what goes on during Christian services, or get their impressions from TV and Hollywood, which always present Christian church services as moron conventions. Yesterday was "Palm Sunday" in the Christian calendar, also known as "Passion Sunday," because in many churches, including Catholic churches, the entire Passion narrative of one of the Synoptic Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke) is read to the congregation, often (as in Catholic churches) in "Passion Play" style, with the pastor taking the role of Christ, other honored members of the congregation various individual roles, and the congregation itself the part of the Jewish mob. Got that? And on Good Friday, in Catholic and other churches the entire Passion Narrative in the Gospel of John will be read in the same manner.
That tradition didn't start yesterday---it's been going on for hundreds of years in America. And I defy any of you to cite me an instance where that annual "Passion Play" in Christian houses of worship led to an anti-Jewish pogrom here in America.
We did it a bit differently. I read Christ's part and our rector read Judas' part. (Another FReeper did a great job as narrator; I think he'd make a good lay reader.)
