When the speech incites violence - it is not protected anymore.
I'm not sure what the laws are in Canada - but here in the US - inciting violence is not protected speech.
Well, the bible doesn't literally say that it's not antisemitism. You're just saying that you interpret the bible to say that this antisemitic trope is just (because God said it). You're in good company. Luther's work "On the Jews and Their Lies" also makes it a point to say that "Jews blaspheme Jesus in their synagogues ... and revile Christians who believe Him to be the Messiah".
Agreed, but we were discussing hate speech, not incitement to violence or imminent lawless action.
Whomever the 'we' is that you are speaking with is not me.
There are lots of things the Bible does not say.....that the earth is not square for instance. You are taking man's word and attempting to put them in God's mouth.....and that dog won't hunt.
I didn't 'interpret' anything. I just quoted God's position as one (likely to believers) possible explanation.
I guess that is why Luther's work is not canonical text. It is his opinion and his alone.
Hmmmm - heckling the Anti semitic Racist is racism - but the Anti Semitic racist calling for violence against Jews - that is protected speech.
It is not I who is doing that.
Oh, then you support what is happening at Ole' Miss because it is protected speech -
The word is never used but there are stories in the Bible (beginning with Egypt) of hatred by other peoples simply because they are Jews. Believing in a monotheistic deity seemed to be the trigger for that. So, antisemitism existed even then if not the word itself.
Sure, and if hypothetically God said:
Are you unable to distinguish certain subtleties of my position that has been clearly stated multiple times to you?
Nobody has any issues with people d I agreeing with what Israel is doing. Some even agree with it. Hamas and thier supporters need to be stamped out. But these leftist kids aren't in Gaza or Israel. They are in the US. But occupying campuses isn't doing anything at all except disrupt learning that other students want. You didn't answer the question. Do you honestly think doing this is going to make Israel stop?
Say in what things? In what Israel does? Then they should be in Israel doing this. And yes outside agitators. A bunch of anti-semite bigots. This isn't the great civil rights movement. These leftists are accomplishing nothing cause it's not the US who's in Gaza. And it's not the universities who are there either. It's not thier fellow students or the professors or the administration. They are just following a bunch bigots. In our local campus the police caught some people gluing posters to light posts and buildings. Guess what, they WEREN'T students. They were outside agitators trying to stir up trouble.
Foolishness is never the right thing. What about the kids who want it to stop. Are they doing the right thing? How old are you anyway? Don't you remember how much you didn't know and how immature you were at that age? You trust some leftist spoiled rich kids to do the right things? Foolishness.
What exactly are these campuses invested in in Israel? I don't think these kid's have any clue what thier campus is doing. They are just occupying to feel relevant and to follow a bunch of anti-semetic boted outsiders.
And Republicans will; have to step forward and admit that protesting the present war policies of the Netanyahu government are not necessarily attacks on any race or religion. I'll admit it's a fine line, but it must be maintained.Buechler said protesters had called for violence, expressed support for terrorism, and claimed they were members of Hamas, according to the Jerusalem Post. He also said protesters had expressed desires for future acts of violence to mirror the Oct. 7 attacks from Hamas against Israel.
Pro-Palestinian supporters at Columbia University confront Jews ‘to push them out of camp’ - Washington Examiner

Democratic Party leaders need to step forward and actively and forcefully start condemning attacks against any race or religion.
The Bible also does not discuss racism or any other number of specific topics like global warming. It speaks of Gids thoughts and God's actions. It's very clear that God puts the rejection a n d death of the Messiah onto the Jews of the day. And when you take in what else God has done when the Jews rejected him and his ways it's clear generations have suffered for the sins of thier fathers.
Are you really reduced to hypotheticals at this point? Then it is time for you to move on to other discussions......or stick to the facts that are known or accepted.
