In long article entitled "A
Christians Appreciation of the
Jew" contributed by the Rev. Gil
bert Reid, D. D., to the Jewish Ex-
ponent the writer enumerates all the
good points that have time and
again been stated in favor of the
Jew, all the achievements of the
Jewish people from the time of
Abraham to this day, as SO many
reasons for appreciating the Jews
worth. But is all such laudation
really necessary to induce the Chris
tian to think Of, and to treat, the
Jew fairly? Why not put the pro-
position in these terms: The Jew
is a human being. Whether he be-
long to different race from his non
Jewish fellow-citizen or not, his
group is composed Of all types of
men. All Jews are not alike just be-
cause they are all called Jews, any
more than all Germans or English
men are of the same intellectual and
moral mold just because they are all
called Germans or Englishmen.
Therefore, every Jew should be
treated on his merits, remembering
that he is human being, regardless
of the group to which he belongs,
and let it 60 at that We do not seek
any exemptions or special privileges
because we are Jews. Why should
we suffer from any abuse or dis
elimination or disabilities because
of that? Is not this argument suf-
ficient to dispel all prejudice?

EDQ T0RlAL
WHEN THE JEW TURNS
CHRISTIAN.

1t has been a favorite contention
of ours that it is impossible for
Jew to become sincere Christian
believer, i. e. a Jew, who is in his
right mind, and of normal intelli-
gence. We have arrived at this con-
clusion both inductively and deduc-
lively. The human mind cannot
retrograde, cannot become credulous,
when in it's previous course of de-
velopment it was free from credul-
ity. The human mind progresses,
becomes less and less credulous and
more and more rational; it gives up
belief in favor of more knowledge.
That is what is actually happening
in the world around us. More and
more Christians are advancing from
orthodoxy and belief in the miracul-
Gus to a rational faith. Members of
other religious bodies, are undergo
ing the same intellectual TRANSFORMED
ton. Hindoos, Buddhists, Shin
toists are all giving up their old ST.
perstitions for knowledge and more
enlightened belief. How can a Jew
then, whose rationalism goes back
to at least $500 years ago. embrace
new doctrines of belief?
AS matter of fact, wherever we
come across ew who is convert
to Christianity, we are justified in
looking for the ethiopian in the
heap of lumber" Innumerable in
stances can be cited This is es-
pecially true of the converts who in
turn become missionaries to the
Jews. We have often been charged
with fanaticism when making such
positive statements on the subject.
Well, we can now refer to greater

phets were their chief concern. Small
wonder, then, that a missionary of
Jewish antecedents incorporates for
a Jew all that is vulgar and venal
and vile"

authority for confirmation DR.. E.
G. Hirsch, writing on the subject
"A Missionary's Return to Judaism
says, among other things:
Back of this sound distrust of
converts, is healthy resentment of
moral cowardice Let the evangeli-
zers prate about the Jewish neophy-
tes' irresistible passion for escaping
from the slavery Of the Law, and
finding the freedom of grace, the
fact stands that if escape was the
inspiring prospect which lured the
Jew to the baptismal font, it was
escape from social and political dis
advantages. The instances where
religious disquiet alone or chiefly
induced the adoption of Christianity
are SO few as to constitute the ex-
ceptions which prove the rule. The
we'll known anecdote recording the
conversation of three recent converts
is by no means travesty on reality.
Exchanging their experiences, two
Of the three acknowledged that the
desire for position and a good mar
riage respectively had been the de-
cisive factor in their BAPTISM The
third for his part declared that re-
ligious convictions had led him to
take the step. This proud declara-
ton, however, was met by spon-
taneous outburst of laughter in the
Others This s'-said they, will do
for non-Jews. But us you cannot
expect to keep straight face when
phrasing your bluff This refusal
of the Jew and even of the fellow
convert to credit the apostate's re-
ligious sincerity is justified by ex-
perience and observation. But it
is also based on intuitive or reasoned
apprehension of Judaism's funda
mental teachings"
And again:
"There is still another phase to
this Jewish aversion to renegades.
Moral turpitude in not few of the
class is so distinctly marked as to
justify the generalizing of the con-
tempt. The story of Israel's perse-
cution throughout Christendom is
revolving commentary on the
pernicious conspiracies and malicious
intrigues in which converts had
part and of which Jews were the
hapless Victims The blood accusa-
ton is largely founded on supposed
ly correct information furnished to
order and for pay by Meshummadim.

know of things Rabbinic is derived
