2. Darn. I thought this thread was going to be about how wrong the

use of the term, "anti-Semitic" is.

I KNOW it was originally coined to mean someone who hates Jews, but it was wrong then and is wrong now. Many people who aren't of the Jewish faith are Semitic. While it does come from the name, "Shem," who was the son of Noah (allegedly), it still includes: the ancient and modern forms of Ahlamu, Akkadian (Assyrian-Babylonian), Amharic, Ammonite, Amorite, Arabic, Aramaic/Syriac, Canaanite (Phoenician/Carthaginian/Hebrew), Chaldean, Eblaite, Edomite, Ge'ez, Maltese, Mandaic, Moabite, Sutean, Tigre and Tigrinya, and Ugaritic, among others.

Maybe if we reconsidered the term, it would help define what we mean?
