[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If McLean Bible Church is an example, I HATE them. They teach intolerance to the Jews and propagate anti-Semitic stereotypes.[/quote]

I always found it odd that the pastor of MBC, Lon Solomon, was raised Jewish.[/quote]
He also was a drug dealer. If you look into the history of many of these "born-again" types, it's a fairly common pattern.

I was driving the other Sunday and overheard a mega-church sermon. It was all about how "Jews will tell you they're the children of Abraham but they are actiually the children of the Devil." [/quote]

What radio station do you listen to?!

This type of thinking isn't a megachurch phenomenon. It's a fundamentalist phenomenon, and even then, not all fundamentalists buy into it.

The "Jews killed Jesus" thinking is actively discouraged in mainline Christian churches, the Catholic Church today, and most other churches. It's viewed as a relic of an intolerant past that the vast majority of today's Christians would eschew.[/quote]
I have no idea what ststion it was. I was scanning around, and stopped on it out of morbid curiosity. (Like looking at a car crash.) I'm here in the DC area, though, and it was broadcast here.

I'm glad to be reminded that the "Jews killed Jesus" line of thinking is eschewed by mainstream Christians. I knew that, of course, but sometimes I run into the fundamentalist type, or sub-type, and get thrown for a loop. There are a lot of them in NoVa, and I believe it's from the MBC. Not positive though.[/quote]
