No Jew nor Greek in Christ...

I found anti-Semitism everywhere I've gone, to one degree or another. Lots in the Midwest and South, some on the East Coast, but even some in California. Although, as I said, lots of pleasant, progressive, and respectful Christians as well-- just none who "glorified Jews."

And yes, I definitely feel for oppressed minorities. I've been a long-time fighter against racism, sexism, homophobia, and xenophobia, as well as a supporter of the rights of the poor, immigrants, and laborers. No question that anti-Semitism in America today is far less intense than it was fifty or a hundred years ago, and there are other minorities who currently experience much more intensive oppression. But these things come and go-- we Jews have learned not to trust too much in any consistency of fortunes favoring us. IMO, we do best when remembering our oppression and not only trying to avoid more of it, but trying to help others who experience what we have experienced.

That is very charitable; I appreciate it.

Regards
