INSIGHT

Nuance Around "The Jews Killed Jesus"

Saying "the Jews killed Jesus" requires nuance because 'the Jews' in Scripture can mean specific leaders, not all Jews. Treating biblical phrasing as collective guilt fuels antisemitism when misapplied to modern Jews.

ADVICE

Apply Harassment Standards Evenly

Treat harassment definitions evenly across groups to ensure fairness on campuses and workplaces. Apply consistent standards so no group receives unequal protection or targeting.

INSIGHT

Historical Guilt Versus Modern Bigotry

Scripture shows Jewish leaders were involved in Jesus' crucifixion, but not every Jew everywhere was culpable. Using that kernel of truth to justify mistreatment turns history into bigotry.

Today, we sit down with Trent Horn from Catholic Answers to discuss the House's recent bill aimed at preventing anti-Semitism and some of the biggest differences between Catholic and Protestant theology. Is it anti-Semitic to say that the Jews killed Jesus? Why do Catholics pray to Mary and the saints? Why don't Catholics believe in sola scriptura? And how do Catholics and Protestants differ in their beliefs about salvation?
