For instance, considering the horror Jews experienced at Hitler's hands, why are so many of them so far to the left? It was an honest question. The answer had to do with the different backgrounds of Russian Jews and Western European Jews.
I see that conversation as more of a politcal leaning than a religious leaning. Remember, this was not a PC time. Jew, Hymie, Pollack, Nigger, Honkie, Mick, Wetback were heard all of the time. NO, it was not right, but it was.
At any rate, not excusing either of them for the conversation, before I make a big deal out of it, let him without this particular sin cast the first stone. We have all been guilty of saying something anti-ethnic at least once. Anyone that says they haven't is lying.
Absolutely. I'm sure some of the Jews who use this as an excuse to attack Billy Graham have made plenty of crude anti-Christian comments in private. I'm damn sick of the self-rigteousness of sensitivity police. Besides, you have had a lot of Jewish media types who have combined both a Jewish and a liberal contempt for Christianity. So, it's really hard to argue with what Billy Graham said. In fact, I find his comments refreshing.
