"After forcing many Jews to be baptized and then referring to them as Marranos (swine), and after an Inquisition in which some 700 Marranos were burnt at the stake for showing signs of “Jewish” taint, Spain expels all Jews from the country..1492"

I don;t know why you are changing the subject, but are you suggesting that all crimes and sins committed by any nation or government are the direct fault and responsibility of the dominant religion or religious institution? Does this apply to individuals committing the crimes and sins and to all adherents of the dominant religion?

Is all of this nonsense derived from predestination, is it outside predestination or is there some crazy selective application where everything good is the result of the individual (Luther) and everything bad is the result of his Catholic past?

You are the one that pointed the finger at Luther.. just pointing out the root of much anti semitism and that the catholic church does not have clean hands

Is all of this nonsense derived from predestination, is......

Are you trying to change the subject NL ?
