And just where did i defend Luther's antisemitism? What I said was that Luther is not a pope to us, despite the seeming inability for papists to comprehend this, while your post is that of a typical myopic view that cannot see the same in Rome. And yet it turns out you tried this before and were shown The Popes Against the Jews that Luther, as often, had Catholic company and his animosity was not novel, and thus your duplicity is inexcusable.....See more in part 5 of a series (1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5, 6 ...If you want to invoke Luther and the Jews regarding his latter exasperated negativity, then see to your own house. And Rome has been too partial toward the Muslims as regards the Promised land.
Why won't you admit the RC hypocrisy instead of contriving some way to charge me with defending Luther's latter attitude toward the Jews?! Indeed your myopic attack mode is manifest as lame, halt, and blind.
in addition the German nation and the Nazis they elected effectively used Luther's treatise to dehumanize and commit systematic genocide against the Jews as he recommended.
No doubt, selectively and as convenient, as if these determined what Scripture said which is contrary to SS, and as if Luther here was to be followed as popes who did likewise, and here again actual scholarship (if you permitted your eyes to read it) indicts Rome as also being used for this.
“the legislation enacted in the 1930s by the Nazis in their Nuremberg Laws and by the Italian Fascists with their racial laws—which stripped the Jews of their rights as citizens—was modeled on measures that the [Roman Catholic] Church itself had enforced for as long as it was in a position to do so” (9). The Popes Against the Jews
If you want to start a thread commemorating wicked popes, do it. Do not defend Martin Luther.
If you want to start a thread attacking Martin Luther as a pope, don't leave out wicked popes.
your comments in 282 in response to my pointing out Luther's public antiSemitic treatise later used by the Germans to try to kill every last Jewish man, woman, and child; somehow that provoked your flesh and so you continue in your defense of Luther by attacking some popes in order to somehow exonerate or mitigate what Martin Luther did..
