The church as a whole never taught that. Some church fathers and others did.

It's funny how many people on this thread are hung up on the words. Teaching is not done by words alone.

Look at the actions taken by the Church and the absolutely consistent, resolute inaction against anti-Semitism, the supposed "perversion" of the faith, over a period of at least 16-17 centuries.

Expulsion of Jews from the Papal Sates by the Pope himself --- that's not a lesson for the flock that lives and property of the Jews are up for grabs? That's not teaching for you?

Your ignorance never ceases to amaze me. I could waste a whole boatload of official Church teachings on anti-semitism on you and it would have no effect. Honestly, I know what certain Catholics did in the past deeply hurt the Jewish. What I don’t understand why you feel the need to beat a dead horse. You seem hung up on decrees ect..like it’s the gospel.
