To most Americans, there is no truly anti-Semitic religion. But this is an oversight. Once such religion exists among us in an unexpected place, proclaimed by a social rabble rouser.

Many people have falsely accused Christianity of being anti-Semitic. While its doctrines have been abused to that purpose at times, such a charge does not hold up to inspection. The core of Christianity is a worship of a Jew. Jesus’ mother, Miriam (Mary), was a Jew; and by Jewish law, if the mother is Jewish, the child is Jewish. Jesus even asserts his Jewish identity in the Gospel of John, where he has this discussion with a Samaritan woman.

Ye [Samaritans] worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews. — John 4:22 [Jesus speaking]

This should put to rest, as sheer stupidity, any Arab claim that Jesus was a Palestinian. Anyone half competent in history would know that — at that time — the polity that Jesus was under was Judea, a etymological cognate of the term Jewish.

Though claiming Jesus as Palestinian is now common in the Mideast, it is not the first such denial of Jesus’ ancestry. Hitler tried to claim that Jesus was an Aryan. The Quran claims Jesus was a Muslim.

But to see how ridiculous this can get, we have to go to Black Islam.

The Nation of Islam (NOI) was founded in 1930 by Wallace Fard Mohammad. Oddly, offical FBI records claim that this Wallace Fard Mohammad may have been a white man.

There are FBI and other law enforcement records of a Wallace Dodd Ford. According to these records, Fard was born in New Zealand or Portland, Oregon on February 25, 1891, to either Hawaiian or British, or Polynesian (Māori) parents. He had little education and a foul temperament that made it difficult for him to fit in. Fard was a petty criminal. — Biography Of Wallace Fard Muhammad

The legends and fabrications concerning this man are too numerous to recount fully, but what is clear is that he was not black.

Yet, anger at racism and racist laws drove many blacks to his preaching, and within time, there came about the Nation of Islam with its ridiculous theology.
