The Holocaust-denying Bishop

[myrrh]

To deny the Holocaust is pretty stupid all around.

However, the parts on calling him anti-Semitic doesn't jive with me. Why is he called anti-Semitic when he is following what the gospels say? To say this, then all Christians are anti-Semitic- which sounds ever dumber since Jesus was a Jew! The Jews denied the Jesus was the Messiah, there is no arguing this. Therefore, when you come down to it, they are enemies to the gospel, just like Paul said.

I have serious issues with the word anti-Semitic because it is used today as a term for anyone who criticizes anything Jewish or Israeli.

As a side note, I don't believe that Christianity today is the religion taught by Jesus. Rather it is the doctrine created by Paul. Nor do I advocate what Paul says anywhere in the New Testament, as he went against all the Disciples with his thoughts and ideas. A fact which is interesting, since who would know more about what Jesus taught then the actual people who were with him while he preached. However, from the perspective of a Catholic Bishop, who uses the gospel as his code of belief, then there is no denying that Williamson is correct with his belief in this regard (not the belief of denying the Holocaust).
