Several Christian denominations have denounced the claim that the Jews killed Christ. In 1965, the Second Vatican Council issued the Nostra Autate statement, which declare that "what happened in His [Jesus'] passion cannot be charged against all the Jews, without distinction, then alive, nor against the Jews of today."
In 1964, the General Convention of the Episcopal Church declared, "We reject the charge of deicide against the Jews and condemn antisemitism." Other denominations, including the Council of the Evangelical Lutheran Church and the Alliance of Baptists, while not explicitly addressing the charge of deicide, have issued statements regretting "interpreting our sacred writings in such a way that we have created enemies of the Jewish people."
But they have never deleted sections of the bible that Jews find distasteful.
“Why a moron?”
The moron who wrote the article called for this: “If Pope Francis can openly declare to all publishers and teachers of the bible to delete those sentences which condemn the Jewish nation, then we will see a more peaceful world.”
In other words, the moron wants the Pope - THE POPE - to encourage Bible “publishers and teachers” TO DELETE VERSES FROM THE BIBLE. Do you not see why that would make the author a moron? Would a man be anything less than a moron for saying, “Jews should delete Psalm 137:9 from their Bibles because ‘Happy is the one who seizes your infants and dashes them against the rocks’ is too shocking for modern sensibilities.”

Please see my initial reply to you.
You don't seem to understand what all is involved in renouncing what has always been regarded as "holy writ." Even though it's not objectively, chrstians have always believed that it is.
One does not simply change millenia-old doctrine in this way (though, as I said, many chrstians do this with Genesis, because "we now know" so much more).
One need not be a chrstian or even sympathize with chrstians in order to see the problem with making such changes. To be fair, chrstians are equally unreasonable in making such demands of the moslems.
A religion is either true or it isn't. One doesn't make a false religion any truer by making a few internal changes. Why not promote the Noachide Laws among non-Jews? Wouldn't a world where non-Jews were Noachides be the safest possible world for Jews to live in?
Your argument is very utilitarian and very secular. You don't seem to understand the importance of religious claims, though please forgive me if I am wrong.
