Hardcore Catholics Worse Than Evangelicals

This according to the leader of the Anti-Defamation League:

The Anti-Defamation League said it had no problem with Palin’s attending a church that also hosted the Jews for Jesus leader. The ADL has in the past has accused Jews for Jesus of deception.

The ADL’s national director, Abraham Foxman, told JTA that Protestants evangelizing to Jews was entirely different from Catholics praying for Jewish conversion, which the ADL has sharply criticized.

“They did not have the Inquisition. They did not go on a Crusade. They did not kill Jews for 2,000 years,” he said. “They have a belief; they’re entitled to their belief.”

    That’s ’cause Catholics don’t believe in all that rapture nonsense. So they don’t have to play nice with the Jews in order to reclaim the ancient lands of the Bible.

    WTF? Does Abraham Foxman need to be replaced by someone who’s been paying attention for the last few decades?

    Sean’s right, it’s not the Catholics, not even the “hardcore” ones, who have been going around saying that all the Jews need to be converted or killed in order to bring on the End Times.

    Abrahan Foxman needed to be replaced ages ago.

    The religious aspects of the Inquisition are soooooo overrated.
