Martin Luther, the father of Protestantism, went so far to remove anything of Judaism from the church as to endorse burning down synoguges and called Jews rats. These teachings were utilized by the Nazis to rationalize their extermination of the Jews. This is pretty much common knowledge amongst the Jewish people but most Christians are not aware of this part of our heritage. It does help to know our church history to put the Jewish reaction to the Christian "far" right in the proper perspective.
Horribly sad but true, However, lack of awareness cuts both ways. Here's something very few Jews are aware of:
The majority of the people on the "religious right" trace their spiritual lineage back to the "left-wing" of the reformation, the anabaptists and dissenters, who were murdered right along with the Jews by Luther, Calvin and the Catholic church. So when Jews attempt to lay a guilt trip on the Baptists and Evangelicals over State Church persecution of the Jews, there is a certain disconnect that is going on that needs to be understood.
Accusations of historical "Christian anti-semitism" placed before Baptists and Evangelicals are often ignored. And there are some reasons for that.
From what I understand, Luther thought that the Jews would embrace his teachings. When they did not, he turned on them.
