Republicans Voting for Bill That Could Make 'Bible Illegal' Outrages MAGA
The question I have is does this take something all Christians can agree is morally intolerable in anti-semitism, and use a law to ban certain parts of the New Testament from being quoted that “THEY” or “WHOEVER” views as being anti-Semitic, such as the written account of the Jews getting the Romans to kill Jesus?
quote:
Congress on Wednesday passed the bill, which would require the Department of Education to use the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) working definition of antisemitism when enforcing anti-discrimination laws. It comes as colleges across the United States have seen pro-Palestinian protests that critics say at times have allegedly veered into antisemitism.
quote:
While the definition in the bill does classify the idea that Jewish people were involved in killing Jesus as antisemitic, it does not make the Bible illegal.
The bill's text states that it would require the Education Department to "take into consideration the definition of antisemitism as part of the Department's assessment of whether the practice was motivated by antisemitic intent" when investigating allegedly antisemitic discrimination at colleges.
quote:
Some conservatives are taking issue with the bill over the IHRA definition of antisemitism including "claims of Jews killing Jesus or blood libel," arguing that it could mean that parts of the Bible would now become "illegal."
