If you read the Catholic Bible, at least the pre-1960s one, you would hate Jews, too.

Well, I've read such a bible and I don't hate Jews. And I personally know hundreds of Catholics who read pre-1960s Catholic bibles, and they're not anti-Semites either. Your apparent theory that traditional Catholicism is the functional equivalent of anti-Semitism is idiotic and insulting.

When did the Pope forgive the Jews for killing Jesus?

I just want to know what the connection between Sundays and anti-Catholicism on FR is...

There is definitely a pattern.

Let's face - few Catholics even read the Bible pre-1960s because their Priests told them not to - that they weren't going to be able to understand it on their own and that they needed the priest to do the interpeting for them. In fact I was listening to a priest on tv (Fr. Corappi -sp?), who I like very much, and here in the 21st century, he was saying the same thing.

If you are reading a pre-1960s Catholic Bible now as opposed to back in the actual 1960s, then it is not the same. Anti-semitism ran rampant in our country back then, for both Catholics and Protestants. Bottomline - I wasn't trying to insult you. JUst trying to figure out Pat...
