The Romans killed Jesus, but I thought he was prosecuted under local jewish law?

I think I was the one who threw in "Christ-killers" as a bit of hyperbole. My apologies for thinking it was too ridiculous to be given a second thought.

I have always been a big supporter of the Jews and would also have been friendly to any I met in real life. However, I had never heard about the use of blood of christian children for matzohs.

This practice strikes me as repugnant and I implore all the Jews reading this to stop, if indeed they do it.

I understand the religious prohibitions on yeast etc. during Passover, but in my view this in no way excuses the use of blood, particularly human blood, and particularly Christian blood, as a substitute.

I would like other political and religious leaders to come forward and support this message. If we had some Jews like Professor Kissinger, Christians like Governor Palin, and Muslims like President Obama stating unequivocally that human blood has no place in crackers then we, as a nation, could come together and the healing could begin.

16:02 -- LOL! Very dark. Very funny!

I'm not sure if 16:02 was trying to be funny or not, but it is my understanding that jews have not used christian blood for that purpose since the middle ages. definitely not in the last few hundred years.

Blood patties are my favourite.
Here is the recipe:
1 cup pigs blood, 2 eggs, 2 cup flour, 1tsp salt
Makes amazing pancakes.
