re: #114 JRCMYP

You are absolutely correct Charles. For example, the yellow star that Jews were forced to wear during Nazi Germany had its origin in early 13th century Europe. The Council of Lateran decreed that Jews (and Muslims and other socially marginalized groups) were required to wear identifying “badges.” Jews had to wear a yellow star. This is just a small example of a long and complicated history of Jews in Europe. Anti-semitism was hardly a 20th century notion imported from the Middle East. Its origins are rooted in the Catholic Church.

Nope. Persians (Haman), Greeks (Antiochus) and Romans (Biggus Dickus) were all ferocious Jew haters.
