It was made clear that I despised the Jews' corruptive influence on our Christian culture – and on our properly Christ-oriented American way of life to which Mr. R. said:
"During Christ's time, the Jews were seeking a material and earthly kingdom, but Christ offered the Jews a spiritual kingdom. This, they couldn't buy, so they rejected Jesus Christ and had him crucified."
What do you mean – had him crucified? Doesn't history prove that the Jews crucified Jesus Christ? To which he answered:
"Yes, I guess they did. I don't beat around the bush, but 2,000 years ago your people would have done the same thing to a man who mistreated you as Christ did the Jews."
You speak of Jesus Christ as merely a man.
"That's all he was – a man who walked on the earth like any other man and this myth about Christ rising from the dead and returning to earth to visit with his disciples is a bunch of crap. The Jews who drove the Arabs out of Palestine did so to disprove Christ's mission for a spiritual kingdom. You see, instead of a leader who would make an empire for the Jews, your kind of people gave the Jews a peaceful preacher called Christ who instead of an eye-for-an-eye turns the other cheek. Rubbish! We are building and, in fact, have built an earthly empire without your kind and your disappointing Messiah."
I can see that it is you and your kind who try to get Christ out of Christmas. I feel sorry for you. To which he quickly replied:
"Don't give me that s_ _ _. I don't want your pity. I don't need it! Too many Jews do not have the guts to tell you how we live and plan, but I am not intimidated by anyone or anything. I know where I'm going."
