"I grew up in the Southern Baptist church confused as to how God could love the Jews in the bible but all the good Christians looked down on them."


WOW! I'm Southern Baptist, from a small town in MS.
We have a large Jewish community.
I have never seen the kind of antisemitism that you describe.

I agree with wardaddy...we could not disagree more.

Maybe private school had something to do with it.
What kind of private school is it, and...

how old are you?

Most of family lived in smaller Georgia towns and that was the main place I saw specific anti-jewish sentiment. But it usually didn't come up - they were just white people.

I'm 41 so I was a young child when Atlanta elected Sam Massell, it's first and only Jewish Mayor - so I don't want to over-state the case.
