Emile,
<< Let it be assumed, for the sake of argument, that a man bears hostility toward Jews or Jewish organizations. The public orthodoxy, the cultural conventions of our time, demand that we assume the man is either mentally disturbed or "evil." Is this necessarily true? Is it not possible that feelings of antipathy toward the Jews may stem from normal psychological reactions caused by the collective behavior of large numbers of Jews?>>
How about that it is just wrong to hate entire groups of people just because of your percieved feelings of "their collective behaviour"? How about that every person is an indivuidual that also happens to be either Jewish, or Christian, or Muslim, or black, or white, or hispanic? how about judging each individual on their merits, instead of hating entire collections and races of fellow human beings?
You can not legitimize hatred Emile. Logic and the light of day, will always prevail over the oily rhetoric of organized hatred. Any true christian, any truly spiritual person will always and intuitively realize that. I hope that you also come to that conclsion some day.
