"This philosophy, historically and today, extends beyond women to include queer artists, people of color and international students, and, moreover, that it extends beyond human demographics. The League also has a history of dismantling barriers between art genres...

I also want to note that as a Catholic I agree that actions matter, not just belief. To that end I have to look at my own words and actions in this thread and discern where I've gone so wrong that it came to this point. Again, I apologize for it.

I hear this and don't deny it. I definitely grew up in a Christian-dominated environment. But for what it's worth I did not grow up *as* a Christian and often felt some of the things you are describing. It's been a complicated journey. I appreciate you taking the time to engage with me on this.

Do you have more authority than me? I thought we were just people talking.

OK, I didn't say that at all, but I am sorry that you have been hurt, and I wish you well.

That's all I've got, in the end.

I acknowledge that I see it through a Christian lens, but doesn't that follow? I do not view it as an example of Judenhass but I do understand how it is possible to.

You asked why I'm privileging Jesus's opinion over Jewish sources. I mean, I'm Christian. I privilege his opinion in most things. Plus as far as I know there is no Jewish retelling of the Temple story; it only appears in Christian scripture

Nice intolerance badge, sport.

Respectfully, I believe this is a misinterpretation.

I have actually really enjoyed the conversation, which reminds me of Twitter before it sucked. I appreciate your perspectives.

The waters have gotten very muddied here as we both practice exegesis and discuss the historical moment in which Christianity emerged.

OK. I will say for the record that I do not see Christianity as replacement for Judaism, that Jews are the real Jews, and that I fully acknowledge the bible is not historical fact.

I don't really disagree with you, though personally I find the teachings of Jesus to be a moment of clarity within it. It's okay for us to disagree.
