Catholics warring against the Pope?
#28
RE: Catholics warring against the Pope?
Now that we're talking about denouncing antisemitism it reminds me of Jewish quota that many universities around the world had, including US. Even Richard Feynman couldn't enroll into Columbia College so he went to MIT; or I remember an essay by Harlan Ellison about his very smart friend called Don Epstein who was also excellent student and wanted to be a doctor in early 60s but Ohio State university turned him down because Jewish quota so he tried to sign in into dentistry and couldn't do that, then not even veterinarian school. So he changed his last name, had a plastic surgery (nose job), christian wife and then he could go into undertaking school.
So who extolled that horrible thing if not Christians?
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
