Let me ask you something: what purpose do you think this thread serves?
Israel is a Middle Eastern country, and the traditional people who live there, of whatever religion, have a distinctly pre-modern and Middle Eastern mentality. Charedi Jews and the ancient liturgical chr*stians (particularly those in Israel) have a visceral dislike of each other that is hard for modern westerners to comprehend.
Authentic Judaism isn't some nice, American suburban congregational religion. And it is a statutory religion, not a salvational one as chr*stians understand it. Chr*stians need to stop viewing Judaism as chr*stianity minus J*sus because it's not and never was.
American chr*stian conservatives need to understand that real Orthodox Judaism is not a pluralistic, multicultural, kumbaya religion. It regards itself as true to the exclusion of other religions, regards Israel as its exclusive holy land, and does not share the philo-Semitic chr*stian view of being two historical stages of a single religion united with chr*stians against a hostile world (instead it faces a hostile world on its own). I'm sorry, but that's the way it is.
And before I close, for what it's worth, I have spent time recently (during the Glen Beck thing) defending philo-Semitic chr*stians from very Theocratic Jews just like the ones I'm defending here. I defend you to them, and them to you.
Dang. What a job!
At any rate, while there is a Halakhic responsibility for Jews to manifest hakkarat hatov (gratitude and appreciation for their friends, including chr*stians), the liturgical chr*stians of Israel are not philo-Semitic nor friends of the Jews in any sense. They are probably the most anti-Semitic chr*stians in the world, and they get away with it because it's politically correct to be anti-Semitic against Orthodox Jews in Israel.
It serves the same purpose that a thread reporting on an act of anti-Semitism would; it highlights that, recognizing that there are many factions within Judaism just as there are within Christianity, there is one faction in Judaism that acts out of a spirit of anti-Christian bigotry. These actions should be roundly condemned with the same fervor that acts of anti-Semitism are. Would you have us ignore acts of anti-Semitism by Christians because they would show all of Christianity in a bad light?
Lest I say something that is unjust, before I make any further response I would like to know if you think that this spitting is appropriate? My response will have to wait until tomorrow since I will be out for the rest of the evening.
