The Jews make no mention of such a thing ever happening (they do list the horrible things that Pilate did), nor do the Romans who finally called him in and took him to task for the troubles that he was making.
That story was obviously made up to put the blame for Jesus's execution on the Jews.
Jewish Deicide
Quote:Jewish deicide is a belief that places the responsibility for the death of Jesus on the Jewish people as a whole. This deicide accusation is expressed in the ethnoreligious slur "Christ-killer." As a part of the Second Vatican Council (1962–1965), the Roman Catholic Church under Pope Paul VI issued a declaration which repudiated the belief in the collective Jewish guilt for the crucifixion of Jesus.
The church also forgave Galileo for his HERESY - when he claimed the earth orbited the sun - and spun on its axis.
The fact is - the church has said many things - and changed them to suit themselves at time - that they repudiated the Jewish Guilt is worthless - when the christ is a fictional being anyway.
No one is guilty of the crucifixion - it never happened because the christ is NOT real. There are simply too many impossibilities for him to have existed in any way.
Example - in those time - the thought was that the man supplied a seed from which the whole baby grew - and the mother was ONLY the dirt the seed was planted in - they knew the baby had its own blood. Of course - we know that is NOT the case today. But a god should have known that one too. Why make up another story about it?
