#2 The reporting on this has been horribly inaccurate. Pope Benedict simply reiterated the 1965 document and explained the reasoning behind each point in the original decision.

This "exoneration" does not break any new ground and simply reiterates the doctrine that has already been in place for many decades.

#3 Jesus's life and death were pre-ordained by a higher power than men & women and anti-semites (and Helen Thomas, but I repeat myself). If you are a Christian, you believe they may have played a minor local power-play role in the setting, but were nothing in the big picture. This is tiresome sh*t

#4 I've never gotten the whole Joooos-killed-Jesus schtick.

The Italians killed him. (Well, the Romans, but Rome has always been in Italy.) Then the church proceeded to have Italian Popes for a couple of thousand years, so they obviously weren't too bothered by it.

Anyway, Christians couldn't be saved if Jesus hadn't died and risen again, so where's the beef?
