Pope Meets Priest Accused of Anti-Jewish Remark

Please show me the scripture and verse where Jesus says this.

As a Christian who is a "for real" Christian, I feel I am less qualified to judge on this than you are. For the simple reason that, among Christians, EVERY group considers itself the only "for real" Christians. While I am certain of my own standing, I am less certain of others. I don't know their hearts and can't judge. So I'll defer to you on that front.

BUT, the issue was about Christians persecuting Jews. If the majority of Christians persecuted Jews, the Holocaust never would have ended. Even in the darkest hours of Nazi Germany, the "Confessing Church" was hard at work trying to fight against Hitler's actions. For their service, loyal members such as Deitrich Bonhoeffer were hunted down and placed concentration camps. Bonhoeffer was executed on special order of the Fuhrer less than a month prior to the fall of Berlin.

Baptist parents teach their children that the US must remain a friend to Israel because God's promise to Israel has not fully been fulfilled. Baptists are hardly a rarity. Many other churches (including Calvary Chapel and several Pentecostal churches) have taken similar positions.

As to the Catholics, while I am unaware of the Vatican's current standing, i know many Catholics who are not the Jew haters of the past. Most Christians, in my experience, do not persecute Jews.



No. Christ did not. PAUL talked about man esteeming one day over another.

Sunday is NOT the Sabbath. Christians have no authority to make such a change. Sunday was observed for worship because 1) many early Christians worshipped in synagogue on the Sabbath; and 2) it is traditionally the day of Jesus' resurrection.

The reason many Christians do not observe the Sabbath any more is because they believe we were liberated from observance of the Sabbath, not because the day was changed. If the day of Sabbath can change, then God can change, and every individual's salvation is resultingly suspect.

YOU were one of those I mentioned that fall in the "live as Jesus does" catagory Gid. You are a good man, {although a bit touchy, but hey who am I to cast stones over being touchy about some things?}

what part of "wasting your time trying to educate danielost" did you not understand?

By what you described Gid I would agree. Most Christians do not go out and kill or support the oppression of Jews. But to me persecution isn't just about physical abuse. I have been in many Christian churches and they speak anti-semitic remarks not even knowing what they are saying. This is where I lean more to 'most.'

AD my friend, while I am deeply honored at your unrelenting wanting me to be there at your wedding, it is just not to be, now please stop with the JEWISH GUILT. it's killing me that I cannot {not to be confused with will not} attend.

Ok, I'll leave it be. Just wouldn't want you think I didn't want ya there. Besides it's the Jewish way to let you know you are loved (at least that's what the Jewish mothers say).


Hmmm, maybe I'll be ambitious and put up an article and pictures for JU to see?

What I find amazing is christians who do not actually know the scriptures but prefess ignorance as truth because thats what they were taught Lucifers lies and deceptions. People can fight over religon all they want but in the end it is the people who have found the truth of covenant and are returning to that covenant are going to win while everyone else is fighting. The Covenant is given and eternally given to a People who want to quit their pagan ways for holy ways,this covenant is know as the covenant of Israel that is restored through the resurrection.

Last of all quit misquoting Paul and actually read what he wrote for what he wrote is found in the Tanach or the christian o.t.,for the verse about sabbaths,foods,new moons,feast days was to a community of believers who were living torah about not letting the pagans judge them out of what is holy and right,well 1682 yrs of fight Lucifer and his pagan followers have won the battle but not the war. For more and more are finding the truth of Pauls letters and are leaving their churches for home churches and messianic syngogues,why because people are tired of Lucifer and his prince Iesus,the name Jezus has been in use for 281 yrs now.

Want truth go read and I mean read,study,and do comparison studies and you will see the lie the christian system has put on the people 1682 yrs ago.

Hi MM,

I'm late getting into this discussion and haven't thoroughly read all the comments, so I hope I'm not boring everyone by repeating.

I've done what I can to get more information on this AP story and haven't come up with much.

You and I have talked about similiar topics before on one of your other blogs. You should know by now that I deplore anti-Semitism whether it's coming from Catholics or anyone for that matter. Anti-Semitism is a form of hatred.

I don't see this situation, as I read it from the links, as anti-Semitic. Is suggesting that Jews are greedy really anti-Semitic language or just an insensitive case of name-calling?

Are some Jews greedy? I’m sure we can all agree that yes, there are greedy Jews in this world. Are all Jews greedy? No, of course not.

I find some of the comments made in the link as well as yours jumping the gun well beyond the scope. What I mean by that is according to the links Fr. Rydzyk is allegedly accused of "suggesting that Jews are greedy". Here you bump that up to Fr. Rydzyk “perpetuating the fallacy that ALL Jews are greedy. Please MM, is it the truth that some Jews are greedy or not? And is saying so anti-Semitic? I think not.

So why make the leap from the Jews are greedy to ALL Jews are greedy? And why jump from that to saying that this shows in their heart they (Christians-Catholics) still blame the Jews for killing Jesus?

You've done well if it was just to get another rather vibrant discussion going.

what day of the week do priests rest on

what did god do on his day off. stay in bed with the covers over his head. or did he buy icecream for his at least 7 billion kids.

Concerning who was guilty of our Lord's sufferings and death. Neither the malice of the chief priests by their false accusations, nor the weak compliance of Pilate could have caused Our Lord's death had not God willed that His Incarnate Son was to die to redeem us from sin and eternal punishment. It's all our sins, MM, that bear the real burden and guilt of Christ's sufferings and death. It's our sins that cry out, "Crucify Him". By our sins we nailed Him to the Cross.
