Yep. And every one of these Christians who lack wisdom and self-control, and thus try to evangelize Jews, are the #1 cause of the problem.
How are we going to ally against Islam when evangelists work every day to sabotage the bridges between Judaism and Christianity?
1. Increasing secularism among American Jews...
2. Intermariage..
Please. Evangelism doesn't threaten anybody. If you don't agree with an evangelist, tell him or her (politely, if possible) "thanks, but no thanks." They don't carry guns. I'm Christian and have been "evangelized" by Mormons and the "Watchtower" hawkers; they haven't converted me and it's never left a scar on my body. Stop crying wolf by suggesting that evangelism by any religion is wrong or dangerous. At most, for those who don't like it, it's a nuisance.

Guns Before Butter.
3. Hatred of Christians and removing Christian symbols in the US, and not realizing that Christians...religous Christians are their best friends.
I'm just explaining the perception. Jews in the US have a lot more contact with evangelicals than Muslims, and therefore many perceive the problem of evangelicals to be more acute.
Me, I'm a philo-Christian Jew who is trying to forge a solid alliance. But evangelicals turn the contact between the two groups into an adversarial situation, and force Jews into a position of having to defend their faith against conversion attempts.
And changed the title.
Liar. This is the second of two articles -- and the title is as published.
Why American Jews support Dem candidates..
The Democrats have done their work well. Many Americans - not just Jews - live in fear of white Christians - and therefore habitually vote Democrats into office so that the Dems will protect them from the "stupid, ignorant, bigoted, violent white Christians."
Because 1) Frontpagemag ran it; 2) immigration is a front burner issue; 3) this is a legitimate topic. And you sound like a jerk.
The smaller title is: High Noon to Midnight: Why Current Immigration Policy Dooms American Jewry.
I just clicked on the link. I have not lied at all. Click on it yourself.
Wrong. It's two articles. Read through the entire thing. I posted the second article, which has its own title. Frankly, it's the more provacative of the two articles.
"..of what they think the goyim might one day do to them-a fear they entertain despite the fact that, apart from some social exclusions and other ethnic prejudices that existed up to the end of World War II, Jews have never faced serious anti-Semitism from the white Christian majority in this country. "
I think these views were developed in Eastern and Central Europe due to periodic pogroms there and transported to America and re-assigned to White Christians. Out fits like the KKK didn't help things either and there is still an undercurrent of anti-Semitism in America although I would say it is rapidly declining.
I think more Christian Americans than ever before sympathize with Jews and Israel and rightly view Islam as a common threat and danger.
Why did your link link to the first article and not the second? And that doesn't explain your little editorial addition.
Tell yourself a lie often enough by transferring your European habits upon innocent Americans and you get to live with the consequences.
Maybe the liberals might then start to muse upon what they did to bring about this chain of events? Might the ACLU even stop persecuting Christianity?
Naaahhh.
