Pope says jews did not kill Christ

[davethenobody]

Pope Benedict has rejected the idea of collective Jewish guilt for Jesus Christ's death, in a new book to be published next week.

Tackling an issue that has led to centuries of persecution, the Pope argues there is no basis in scripture for the Jewish people to be blamed.

The Catholic Church officially repudiated the idea in 1965.

But Jewish groups say the Pope's detailed analysis of the gospels is a major step forward. A 'Historic moment'

"This is a personal repudiation of the theological underpinning of centuries of anti-Semitism," said Elan Steinberg, vice-president of the American Gathering of Holocaust Survivors and their Descendants.

The Anti-Defamation League said it was an "important and historic moment".

So a damned kike says the kikes aren't to blame? Right.

Those who want to continue in evil will continue in evil. Those of us with eyes to see and ears to hear will have our day in the KING'S court.

It would not surprise me if they accused Christ of killing all the Jews...oh, wait, hoaxacaustianity thrives.

who cares what the pope says? the catholic chuch has no power anymore and he's a sellout bitch. We all know who killed Christ,it was the devils/jews and no coward pope will try to change this ever.

Revelation 13:11 And I saw another beast ascending from out of the earth, and it had two horns like a lamb and spoke as a dragon.

The Poope's two cents is worth just that - about two cents.
But the truth of Scripture is priceless!

Wonder how the jews will explain their own publications and TV shows in Israel where they boast about killing Christ? Probably with clever lies!

The Catholic Church is in Cahoots with the Jews. So I dont even know why they are faking this feud. In fact from what I've heard Jews are running the Catholic Church.

The Pope argues there is no basis in scripture for the Jewish people to be blamed,

Then the "pope" must not be familiar with scripture...

1 Thessalonians 2:14-15; "For you, brethren, became imitators of the churches of God in Christ Jesus that are in Judea, for you also endured the same sufferings at the hands of your own countrymen, even as they did from the Jews, who both killed the Lord Jesus and the prophets, and drove us out. They are not pleasing to God, but hostile to all men."

No basis, indeed.
