    For the record: I haven’t looked into any evidence as to who killed Jesus, and frankly think that any historical evidence to the fact would likely be too old to be conclusive anyway.

    So you’re arguing without any familiarity of the evidence, just going along with a antisemitic narrative because it conforms to your feelings?

      That’s just disingenuous. The entire point of all my comments has clearly been that whether or not the mentioned claim is true is irrelevant to the fact of whether it’s anti-Semitic, because it is a purely factual claim.

      You made incorrect assumptions regarding whether I believe those claims, and as an anecdote I corrected your mistake.

      My point stands: I don’t need to take a position as to whether the claim in question is true or false in order to argue that it is a factual statement that can be supported or disproven by evidence.

      You seem to struggle with the idea of supporting a concept vs. supporting a concrete statement.
