Things are definitely getting overheated on both sides. One point on which I completely support Yiri, though, is this crap about "You Jews are being so paranoid about Christian anti-semitism." That's like telling a black he's paranoid for disliking the Confederate flag. Jews have every reason to be paranoid about Christian anti-semitism; there is a long history of Catholic and Protestant (and minor Christian sect such as the Jehovah's Witnesses) persecution of Jews. Nor is it long stale history -- it has been a strong force for repression in this century. -- Tim Maroney, Carnegie-Mellon University Computation Center ARPA: Tim.Maroney@CMU-CS-K uucp: Try sending through a gateway such as DECWRL, UCB-VAX, SEISMO, or HARVARD -- mailer conventions differ on syntax "Remember all ye that existence is pure joy; that all the sorrows are but as shadows; they pass & are done; but there is that which remains."
