There are those who dislike Jews in every religious tradition, just as there are Jews who don’t particularly care for Christians.
Mr. Foxman needs to mind his own business.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Does the Vatican get to make some reciprocal demands of the ADL?

I didn't think so.

There is an historical, though not necessarily justifiable reason, for the animosity between Christians and Jews and it has not everything to do with the crucifixion of Christ.

All one has to do is read “Acts of the Apostles” and the letters of St. Paul, which describe the very early Christian church, and one gets the feeling that, even after Christ’s death, the first prosecutors of Christians were not so much the Romans but the Jews.

The very first Christian martyrs, saints Stephen and James, were killed by Jews. St. Paul had to go to Rome for trial because of accusations made by the Jews. He was stoned and beaten by Jews. All these memories lived out in the early church and never died down.

Regretably, Foxman is an anti-Catholic bigot.

I must say that I’ve never heard SSPX say anything against the Jews. If there is a problem then, yes, they need to get in line with the Church. But I’m not aware that there is one.

A much bigger problem is that some of them have said that the See of Peter is vacant, since there hasn’t been a real Pope since the time of Vatican II.

And some of them have said that Vatican II was not a real council. Frankly, it was a regretable and unnecessary council, but it never asserted anything that was actually heretical. Nothing unusual about that. Some Councils over the millenia have been extremely important. Others might as well never have happened. But genuine councils are preserved from heresy, and I’m afraid that Vatican II was a genuine council.

The heresy and dissidence and stupidity were introduced by people who deliberately misinterpreted the Council.

As for Foxman, he just loves to bash the Catholic Church, every chance he gets.

I find it very interesting the ADL feels it is in the position to make demands to the Pope.

[rmlew]

SSPX has a bunch of people who don't like Judaism. I don't have a problem with that. I have a problem with their delusional conspiracy theories and penchant for Holocaust denial, which they hide behind proclamations of persecution.
I wish the ADL would spend a little time dealing the intolerance and fear all too many Jews show towards Christians. Silly thought, Oikophobia is the religion of the ADL.

[SQUID]

I think the Catholic Church should require Jews to remove certain sections of the Talmud that are anti-goyim.
