Antisemitism is hostility to, prejudice towards, or discrimination against Jews.
This sentiment is a form of racism, and a person who harbours it is called an antisemite.
So an antisemite is a person who practices hostility of discrimination against Jews so is, in fact, a type of racist.
So that is the correct use of the word.

Well, it is up to the rest of us to remind the misinformed that they are wrong and why. If the ignorant need a reason to express where hateful ignor-amious ways they need to find a different term because your term just doesn't fly.

My term, as you call it, is the dictionary definition. Go look on Wikipedia and other informative sites.

People always use words to describe a situation that may not be punctiliously correct. Just like it is raining cats and dogs. but antisemitism in colloquial conversation means being anti Jewish, though not specifically fully correct.

You can try ands correct everybody who uses it colloquially, but many will tune you out and you will exhaust yourself long before you hit everyone who uses it that way.

A "new" member. Bringing up a topic to defend and deny the behaviors of some in threads posted before the new member
arrived.

The truth is, there are those here who don't approve of the existence of Israel or Jews.
Which admittedly revoked any claim of their being in Hebrew Jewish Christ,the God of Israel.

I wonder what other name our "new arrival" goes by? Making up many names to deliver one racist message doesn't show there to be a lot of people here who think the same way.

It just demonstrates racism is desperate.

Great screen name. You're not fooling anyone.

Ya, maybe so; but, but, but I can count them all by just using one hand, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, but no more.

I guess, that is why they are called the minority party.

You are indeed correct.

Why would anyone make a claim, like make up such a word play, that is truly so vague in fact and non descriptive and a act of out right delusion. The Devil is in the detail ! and such is pathetic when one bothers to look in to such a depiction.

One would have to be a retard to use such as Anti-Semite in fact, because such has nothing at all to do with Semites really at all in fact does it.

Sure i know what the dictionary claims in fact, but such just does not truly cut it for me at all, shallow people will run with such as the dictionary claims. but such is in fact just stupid ignorance because such does not address the issue at all in fact.

One should say that one is an Anti-Jewish ? now that's more to the point ? but then again even that may not cut it in fact because all Jews are not the same type of Jew in fact ?

I am Anti-Zionist and by that i mean the So called Zionist ? but i am not against Biblical Zion at all, as i support such as that because i know the difference between the two. But carnal people or religious fools who are not truly born again will claim their shallow delusional rumps over all, because such shallowness is the norm. for they have not waken up yet to this world is full of delusions and deceptions in fact.
So i say that i can clearly see the difference in fact for i am not asleep at the wheel in fact regarding such things because i question such things.

A worthy Christian should ponder on such word plays that may be deceptive. For Jesus said this world is Full of Deceptions and Delusions in fact, so if one truly follows Jesus as the Christ, one would thing that such would take heed of that subject he pointed out in fact.

Even Jews in Israel get moron Jews calling them Anti-Semitic. how stupid !


In Acts when Stephen called out exposing the direction of the leadership over their history in regards to God in fact, they killed him ! now was St Stephen a anti-Semite ?
Would one class St Stephen as a Anti-Semite nowadays ? to right they would in fact and not to mention would kill him for pointing out the truth, for they can not handle the Truth in fact !
So we seen them who the Bible describes in the Vineyard story, that such are not worthy of God in fact, kill all of Gods Prophets in fact ! They work against the Kingdom of God and they such people are at the head of the religion, like Saul ! yet Saul came to understand that St Stephen was that face of an Angel pointing out the Truth in fact in regards God !

For if they listened to Stephen they would of repented and got back on track regarding God in fact.

The Truth will set you free, that a fact ! and to be lead by deceptions and delusions will enslave you in fact ! That'a why one seeks the Kingdom of God ! Such is mature and the other is a degenerate in fact and a degenerate is a slave to Sin in fact ! but the mature has a handle on Sin because one is not a retard of this world in fact.

Dear Fool, ...

Merriam-Webster:
"anti-Semite : a person who has a hostile, prejudiced attitude toward Jews : an anti-Semitic person"

Oxford Learner's Dictionary
"anti-Semite - a person who hates Jewish people or treats them unfairly"

You need to learn the difference between the definition of a word in current usage, and the etymology of the word!

"anti-Semitism (n.)

also antisemitism, 1881, from German Antisemitismus, first used by Wilhelm Marr (1819-1904) German radical, nationalist and race-agitator, who founded the Antisemiten-Liga in 1879; see anti- + Semite.

Not etymologically restricted to anti-Jewish theories, actions, or policies, but almost always used in this sense. Those who object to the inaccuracy of the term might try Hermann Adler's Judaeophobia (1881). Anti-Semitic (also antisemitic) and anti-Semite (also antisemite) also are from 1881, like anti-Semitism they appear first in English in an article in The Athenaeum of Sept. 31, in reference to German literature. Jew-hatred is attested from 1881. As an adjective, anti-Jewish is from 1817."

I underlined what you need to learn.

Welcome to this interesting mix CB site @foolmefoolsyou . It's refreshing to see that you also know the truth regarding those who think or pretend they are Semites and those who truly know they are like many of the Arabs....more to be said on this subject for sure.

Is that it-~~?

Well, keeping it short and simple, what do you say it means? And whatever you say, won't that be doing what you accuse me of - "just take the peck that fits your needs".

The problem as I see it is that those who like to label Christians antisemites is because they lack knowledge for "what sayeth the Scriptures." When Scripture is used to prove that the semitic Jews of Israel, since the coming of Christ to earth, are no more, and no less blessed by God than any other nation of the world, those who lack understanding of Scripture become very excited and even hostile at even the suggestion that God has no more special plans exclusively for them.

To use the word Semite is pathetic ! in regards to issues regarding the Jewish people in fact !
It's just dribble in fact, because coming from a worthy Christian position, race is not the issue in fact !
So it's totally wrong to call a worthy Christian an Anti-Semite in fact, because only a retard would make such a claim !

A worthy Christian is Israel in fact ! a Servant of God, nothing to do with Race here at all in fact !
Only the Carnal or religious dupe would make such a claim that it's got to do with Race, for they do not have the Holy Spirit in fact ! so they are at a loss for they are clearly Lost.

"Anti-Semite" is a word we use today to describe people who would allow Jews to be eliminated from the earth, as the Nazis attempted to do in the 1930s and 1940s. I understand Hamas is trying to eliminate Israel.

A word can have more than one definition. The definition of some words evolve over a period of time.

That could be correct but why not narrow such down and be more precise ? than such a vague notion as Semite ? how stupid can one get !

I am Anti-Golden Calf Mob ! just like Holy Moses was in fact for Moses was of God and the Golden Calf Mob were Anti-God ! So does that make Holy Moses a Anti-Semite ? sure does it your a fool ! like many people are nowadays barking mad delusional, because they are under delusions in fact, for such numb bat's can not discriminate the difference between the two in fact.

To Discriminate does not mean such is a bad thing in fact, for it points out one can differentiate between with knowledge of the difference between the objects. Like a product as an engine block casting has a 3% failure rate for a given engine but other such products could be more or less given failure rate, but some imperfections do pass for service in a STD Car but not for other applications they are not all worthy ?

From the Communist Socialist position all people are equal ? regarded as equal ? but that's a lie in fact, because no one is equal in fact !
But Socialism is dominated by Political Correctness and as such does not believe in the Truth in fact, they call such relative ? But with such Socialist people as Hitler and all Communist they only promote deceptions and delusions in fact ! but if one points out such to the likes of them they will have you killed ! just like the bastard so called Jews peddled in fact !
The story in the Bible about the Vineyard points this truth out ! for they killed all of the Prophets of God and then Jesus.

So one has to take heed when one makes claims that they serve god ? and especially if they reject Christ Jesus ! for you should know they are of Satan = the Anti-Christ ! for they do not Serve Christ Jesus at all in fact, but other gods of man, they are good for nothing and a curse in actual fact.

I think it's pretty clear - anti-Semites don't like Jews. Some would eliminate them altogether.

I think it's pretty clear - anti-Semites don't like Jews. Some would eliminate them altogether.
I see it is clearly that Semites are 90 % Arabs in fact and Jew's are about 10% of the Semitic people !

Clearly the fact is that 90 % being Islamic Semitic people, do in fact totally hate the Jews in fact !

The issue of Anti-Semite is clearly nonsense in fact ! As it's not about being a Semite at all in fact ! It's about religion in fact !

So to use a word like Anti-Semite is just pathetic as one could be ! a retard only uses the word, for clearly do not have any depth of the subject at hand in fact !

From a Nazi's point of view ? or a carnal idiot fools position i would think such a concept comes from delusions and deceptions, for they are not worthy of true Christianity ? And that backward line of thought is touted only by fools or the lower dregs of society ? but that is what the Media aspire to and Satanist in Governments aspire to such regards as the Norm ? for they are morons in fact, who are so shallow and can not see past their own nose in fact, for that's the level that they can only aspire too ?

The Bible is correct concerning the OT. and the NT is totally correct in such regards and no carnal person has the right to question such at all because they are not worthy of God in fact, so their regards to the Bible is that of a brat at best in fact !

One who is truly born again has no regard to Carnal people views on the subject, for Carnal people are Lost, as are Religious dupes !
Religion never Saved anyone, Only Christ Jesus Saves ones Soul !

Anti-Semite, indeed !
