And talking about popes and antisemitism: don't forget about another "wonderful" pope John Paul II who embraced wholeheartedly that antisemitic movie "Passion" where all the Jews in the movie are boiling with hate toward Jesus.
I mean we're talking about the guy that prohibited Jesus movies like singing Jesus in "Jesus Christ Superstar" or horny Jesus in "Last Temptation of Christ", but when met with a movie made by an antisemite based on vile antisemitic book "The Dolorous Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ" that was written by equally hateful antisemite ( on page 81, "the cruel Jews." On page 64, "the crime of the Jews." On page 102, "The Jews, having exhausted their barbarity.") then this "Holy Spirit driven" man proclaims it realistic and urges billions of people to see it, making it a block buster that later some directors also tried to exploit, like Darren Aronofsky, but didn't succeed with being blessed by pope, although the movie was an equal turd with "The Passion" but was not antisemitic what popes really like in a movie.

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"
