The Jewish people had been, for Europeans, a people hated for a long time. At some time in history, the Roman Catholic Church began to hold them responsible for the death of Christ. This gave carte blanche for any noble who owed a Jew money (as money lending was one of the few professions Jewish people were allowed to work in) to renege on his debt by killing or driving out the Jews from his area.The Neo- Nazis, know very well that their boss, Hitler, not only believed in Jesus (which alone made him a Christian) but his work against the Jews came straight from Christian theological reasoning just as had many Christian saints of the pastCatholic church = huge money machine. Why does the Vatican have an embassy in the US? Kinda blows the idea of separation of church and state out of the water. I thought that only those who wielded political power had embassies.All churches are in the business of making money. Look at many protestant churches, the Pastor starts with nothing and soon is driving flashy cars and building bigger churches. Religion is business, it is the easiest to get money from anybody.
