“(4) Former Knicks player Allen Houston who, with a teammate, suggested that Jews were responsible for Jesus’ death.”
Uh they are, at least the Jewish leaders pushed for his death. They didn’t actually pound the nails into his hands or the spear into his side.
Historicity is different than inter-generational guilt.
Germans performed genocide against Jews. Yet we shouldn’t hold today’s generation accountable.
IIRC, the New Testament places Jews and Romans as the folks who proximately crucified Jesus. Oh well. That doesn’t make today’s Romans guilty of anything.
Yes, that was the Romans. I think we should attack Italy, just on principle.
