Your definition of anti-Semitism is very loose. I would personally define as despising Jews murderously simply because they are Jews. Presbyterians, Catholics, Lutherans, Episcopalians do not hate Jews for no reason. I know anti-semitism when I see it. And you'll have to go to greater lengths to prove to me that Reformed eschatology is sytemically anti-semitic.

Yes, my definition is probably not the same as the common one. I don't believe that people who believe in Replacement Theology are necessarily prejudiced against Jews, but in my experience, when you question many (most?) who are prejudiced against Jews, they cite Replacement Theology to prove their points. Coincidence? I think not.

I do not believe that the church was God's Plan B, or that a saved, sanctified collection of Jews and Gentiles was somehow an unexpected development brought about only because Plan A didn't work out for God. I do not believe that the church is an accident. Indeed, I believe it is aholy priesthood and a chosen people.

Straw man arguments. I never claimed any of the these arguments that you oppose, so what is your point?

What I attempted to refute their was common dispensational theology. If you do not hold to that, then my apologies.

This is really not an issue worth burning down the barn over. I am not convinced that disp. theology is Biblical, but I am not convinced that it isn't either. As we are brothers in Christ, I wish you the very best. May you bear much fruit!
