MB As a Semite from the wrong side of the family, I gotta point out that what Albert's wayward offspring really said was "...Ignorant Arrogant Stupid and ANTISEMETIC", which seems to me was referring to a whole 'nother kind of genetic material. -g-

<<(anti-semitic would be anti-Jewish and anti-Arab and anti-Idumaean and anti-Moabite and I just don't have that much time in my day to hate any and especially all those folks. -g->>> Mike, Isn't is amazing how many people flippantly use the phrase "anti-semitic" to mean a hatred of Jews. What's even more bizarre is I'll hear various Jews describing certain Arab groups as being Anti-Semites. They often also comment on their abhorrence of all things Arab. Funny how those of a Judaic bent might happen to be guilty of Anti-Semitism as well... <wink> Regards, Ron "Act like an idiot. That way everyone will treat you as an equal"
