I have been, indirectly (as directly calling me an antisemite would be a rule violation) accused of anti-semitism, multiple times.
I would, simply for the record, like to point out that a lot of my energy on this forum, has been spent defending a Jewish man's Right, to belong to a forum that celebrates his heritage.
I have said many times, that although I disagree with MJ theology on many issues, that I have a deep respect for the Jewish people, and find Jewish history facinating.
Yet, as i said, i have been accused of antisemitism.
May I ask for a definition of Antisemitism that would explain why I am am supposedly antisemitic?
Because as it appears to me, many seem to use the term Antisemite, as if it is definition were simply "you disagree with me".

An anti-Semite is something *other than what you are, Colabomb. :hug: You're a good guy.
And I think almost everyone here except a couple confused individuals know that. Don't take what they say too seriously, there's a cultic mentality operating there.
Please know you have my support. :thumbsup:

You are most defintely not an anti-Semite. Nor are you guilty of the equal and opposite error of loving us to death. :)
Keep up the good work mate! You're a very switched on poster. :thumbsup:

Yes, you have defended One Jewish man who is the same denomination as you against many Jewish Messianics, who are not of that denomination. So what does that say about you?

Many times an untrue label is cast upon someone to divert attention to truths spoken, that another person finds unpleasant to deal with in their own belief system.

I don't find you to be antisemitic.
I do find some of what you've said to be in error, but not antisemitic.
To speak plainly, I do not see hatred in your posts, I see questioning.
And, Questions are never a bad thing, for fear mongering and hatred are based in ignorance. If one is asking questions, then they are trying to learn.
Peace to you :)

I haven't really seen anyone saying that YOU are anti-semitic. I've seen remarks that say Christians CAN be. I think you're wearing some collective words as if you own them. Sometimes the word "you" is thrown out there to mean a whole lot of people and not even necessarily YOU personally.
I sure hope that somewhere beneath all these words your questions are getting answered. :wave:
