when I was growing up Jewish in Lower Bucks County, just north of the Philadelphia line, the number of anti-Semitic remarks, behaviors, vandalism, and outright violence used to increase exponentially as Easter approached. The 'explanation' for all this hatred manifesting itself was that "the Jews killed Christ".
So although I never took LSD, I'm having flashbacks now that members of the Vatican, yes the same Vatican which renounced the "Jews killed Christ" meme all those years ago, are blaming the Jewish Press for 'revealing', that is publishing court documents, that these horrors were occurring in their Church. Of course, it is Easter today and so all of this is just "right on time" as far as I am concerned.
I am reliving one of the more painful difficulties of my childhood and I'm not at all pleased about it.
