My response is based on what I have experienced.

I have been accused of "anti-semitism" many times. Apparently, it is the height of "political correctness" to allege anti-semitism on the flimsiest of pretexts. But it is perfectly okay to "bash" certain other faiths, such as Catholicism, "Mormonism," and of course Islam.

Hypocrisy. I was simply pointing that out.

Now, if you are saying you bash ANY religion not your own, including Judaism, well fine. I guess.

NO bashing of religion would always be preferable.

Tell that to Joseph Smith.

"I was answered that I must join none of them [any Church other than the LDS Church], for they were all wrong; and the Personage who addressed me said that all their creeds were an abomination in his sight; that those professors were all corrupt; that: 'they draw near to me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me, they teach for doctrines the commandments of men, having a form of godliness, but they deny the power thereof.' " (Pearl of Great Price, Joseph Smith—History 1:14, 16-19)

Sounds like "Religion Bashing" to me.

BTW isn't that in your "scriptures?"
