So here's a plan. The next time you express an opinion on what's wrong with the world, take a look around to see who's nodding in agreement. If it's some clown who thinks the Jewish state should be pushed into the sea, or that the Jews killed Christ or are conspiring to subvert the world economy or the government or the media, I beg you to consider that you might be wrong. There is no shame in changing your opinion. Falling into step with wicked fools that's shameful, and it's dangerous too. God gave you an early detection system. Use it. Come to think of it, I don't remember agreeing with anti-Semites or anti-Semites agreeing with me on different subjects for that matter. Funny thing is some of them are very religious and even Catholics, whose antisemitism is so transparent it's incongruent with their faith. The truth of the matter is that I never got along with those people. I think the author has a really good point here.

I have never really understood antiemitism (thank G-d). Usually, it is based on some form of envy. Usually, the anti-semitic rants revolve around wealth (e.g. "THEY control the banks" or "THEY exploit people to gain wealth"). It is hardly a wonder that some of the most anti-semitic people who I have ever met on campus and elsewhere tend to also hold left-wing economic views.

If the truth doesn't come out in honest prayer...in sifting the soul.
But then I am confident (I have experience)...the truth (the Truth) will emerge.

If we follow our faith as we are meant then we treat others as we want to be treated.
Our faith doesn't allow us to be antisemitic. Of course if we see evil, then we can call it evil.
Good points.
Am beat, and am off to bed. Have a blessed night you two!
