The ideas I have expressed are not well received by Jewish leftists. Irrational hatred of members of another religion is not something most people want to admit to in this day and age. That said, I have not made a scientific study of this phenomenon. All I know is what I observe in contact with my many Jewish friends. I do surprise a few of them when they find out my politics since I am unlike their stereotype of a conservative (admittedly with some libertarian leanings).

Irrational hatred of members of another religion.

I've spent time with hunderds of Jews of all ages, spanning more than a decade and not once did I ever witness or feel hated from a single one of them. And my Luthernism was certainly known to many of them. And I look like your quiessential original nazis. And cannot say likewise for mny other classifications of people. I've definately felt by some and witnessed against others.

Tradition ia a hard thing to break and older folks are more set in their ways. And the argument about public display of other religion is a valid one from my experience. It may well be a cultural taboo thing that helps hold many to the democrat party like other single issue voters. Christians want it, Jews don't.
