Calling it anti-semitic is skating on pretty thin ice too, when several very large denominations hold to it.

Look, God is not finished with Israel. Paul makes that very clear. However, it clear that not all who are descended from Israel are Israel. The seed of Abraham is the church.

I am not saying that "Replacement Theology" is correct, but surely you can see whay someone might believe it.

It's not a value judgement, it is a statement of fact.

Opposed to Israel, or in place of Israel, is by definition, anti-Semitic. Sorry you don't like the term, I can understand why, it carries a lot of baggage with it.

An unnatural, grafted in branch, not the tree itself. Or put another way, adopted sons, not natural children. We don't take the place of the true children, we were adopted to make the real children jealous.

As best as I can tell, it is tradition mostly.
