By the way, I have a very large extended Jewish family, so this is not racism its genuine question that has always puzzled me since I became aware of the conflict.
Thats why I posted this thraed , I recall that the passion play in Munich Germany had to modify the and take out the blood libel where the Jewish crowd condemns the Messiah . Same thing as Mel Gibsons Christ movie that line waqs taken out .
When Pilate saw that he was not succeeding at all, but that a riot was breaking out instead, he took water and washed his hands in the sight of the crowd, saying, "I am innocent of this man's blood. Look to it yourselves. And the whole people said in reply, "His blood be upon us and upon our children.
Matthew27: 24-25
I can understand especially after WW2 why the Jews would wish that verse censored , its understandable . My point is these verses I listed in the thraed seem very archaic and outdated for our modern world . Regardless of the history of Jewish persecution I cant help but find these verses very extreme .

Old post. I examined the evidence, changed my mind. "Race" in this manner applies, best case, in the old biological definition.

But if you're saying that Jews are now a race so that you can attack them, I'd be happy to hold you to your definition, since you don't seem to be able to hold to any. So now you're a racist, then? You're admitting this?
Where did i say Jews were a race ? And on this thread I am discussing these verses which I hold to be supremacist ideology .

No, they're not. Now could you answer, I don't know, any of my previous points?
Okay , this from a poster who leads crusades about offensive Islamic verses and blod libels , finds the quotes about chosen people with a divine rod justice eventually ruling the world with all the worlds races serving them is acceptable . I expected you to argue you here , in fact you are running again Geoff , you are just proving and reinforcing my belief that you are just a anti-Arab bigot .
