[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow, I am the Jewish being called "asshole," "jerk," "dense" and "stupid idiot."

If you think this is a way to promote interfaith discussion, you are wrong. 8:09 and 8:12 -- are you the same poster? I think you need anger management class.

I never once said anything anti-Christian in my posts, I was simply trying to help you understand why some Jews might be offended by a Christian seder. Not sure why that is "insulting" to Christians.

Your unwillingness to even acknowledge that Jews might be be legitimately uncomfortable with this speaks volumes.

FWIW -- a brief survey of my Jewish friends ALL agreed with me. They also said I was nuts trying to convince strangers on DCUM that Jews have a right to feel this way.[/quote]

No, I get why some might be uncomfortable - it's[b] call ignorance, as in not knowing anything about it.  We've tried to explain[/b] but you still insist on being upset, ignoring those explanations, and deliberately misconstruing the intent.  Now you are being disingenuous on top of it.  THAT is what people are taking exception to.  You are basically upset over semantics - a pretty thin reason to be as offended as you are, by almost any standard.[/quote]

Nobody tried to explain. I'm the PP who asked, out of ignorance, if the christian-hosted seders were modern or more symbolic recreations of the last supper, and my throat was jumped down for asking. I didn't get an answer. I can imagine respectful and disrespectful ways to hold christian observations of passover rituals and I'm sure both take place in practice, no matter the symbolic intent.[/quote]
