"For too many years, Christians have accused Jews of being Christ-killers and used that charge to rationalize violence," said Sister Mary C. Boys, a seminary professor on a committee that read an early draft of the script. "This is our fear."

I must have missed all of this Christian on Jew violence. I have seen Palestinian on Jew violence. I have seen Jew on Palestinian violence. Even seen an occasional looney skinhead do something to a jew. Now, where's all this "rationalization of violence"?

There has been over 1,000 years of Christian on Jew organized violence, from the Ghettos, to the Pogroms, to the Holocaust. Hopefully, it's on the wane now. The Romans were quite violent and harsh in their occupation of Israel. They appointed the Herod's from out of Syria and made them "King of the Jews" because they were reliable tax collectors for the Romans.

True Jews hated the non-Jew Herods and their desecration of the Temple and the Herods eliminated John the Baptist and Jesus with the help of the Romans. Jesus was a Jew, as were his Apostles. It is a terrible misunderstanding of history that the Jews were condemned by the Christian "Holy Roman Empire" for rejecting their own Messiah and for killing Jesus.
