Headline from the Vatican: Thursday, 3/3/11
"Pope says Jews innocent in the death of Christ."
Well, hal-a-f--kin-looya.
Interpretations to the contrary have been used for centuries to justify the persecution of Jews. But, just as the civil rights laws didn't alter the perception of racists, this new admission by the Pope will not change the perception of bigots. Sweeping generalizations about Jews and Blacks will continue to flourish in our society, and the marginalized communities will continue to suffer. WE don't represent a shining example of humanity. I think, to find that, you'd have to visit one of the few remaining primitive cultures.
