It’s hard to believe Jews come up to you and accuse you of that. That’s a credit to America of the last few generations, but historically, it’s a factual charge, which is frequently still used against Jews (by Muslims).
The problem I have is, if you read the article, this is accusing modern American churches of teaching these same shameful lessons. The article contains this quote:
For too many years, Christians have accused Jews of being Christ-killers and used that charge to rationalize violence
This line implies, with the word "have" instead of the word "had", that this is an ongoing problem. It is not. They are trying to create a problem that American churches at the very least has come to terms with since the beginning of this century.
Yes, there are still Jews who still see Christians as people who blame them for Christ's death. There are also blacks in this country who view white people as their former masters and demand compensation.
Neither view is right, and neither view should be allowed to be put forward without challenge.
No, Jewish people don't approach me with these accusations, in fact all of my Jewish friends are very curious about this movie and have no fear that I will suddenly persecute them. But as you read articles about this movie, many Jewish "spokespeople" make these kind of paranoid, irrational statements.
They haven't seen it, and yet the next Spanish Inquisition could start due to the fact that "the Church" keeps teaching these anti-Semitic lessons. These accusations against "the Church" are false and I see no reason why Christians should not be able to openly state they are false.
Just as Jewish people have the right to raise concerns, Christians should have the right to challenge false statements. Or is that comment Anti-Semitic?
If "Muslims" say this then they are going against their own religion. The Koran teaches that the Crucifixion was a hoax. Perhaps it is Pan-Arab National Socialists who say this.
