    I’m honestly not sure how you’re helping defeat any stereotypes here because no one was even talking about Jews until you brought it up.

      You know Christianity is an offshoot of Judaism, right? How early roman christians viewed and treated Jewish people is reasonable context to include in a conversation about the history.

        Sure it is, in the same way that Satanism is an offshoot of Christianity, I guess.

        Perhaps that is not how it is practiced these days, but that IS how Christ intended it to be. Just read Matthew 23 in case you have any doubts. If that is not a scathing repudiation of any Rabbinic teaching that was around at the time, then IDK what is. If you can find a more eloquent way to say “shove all this crap up your own ass and die from it”, I can’t wait to hear it.

        Remember, they had the guy killed just for saying that.
