despite the further fact that the
j ws who supposedly executed
Jesus are dead in any case almost
two thousand years. Of all which
the child in his Sunday-School
class is taught, the uncritical COM
municant in his pew is unaware.
What he retains is an anger
againSt-the Jews he knows. So,
at the touch of a religion dedi-
Gated to love, he has been tainted
with hate.
From this distressing practice,
there are mong the Christian
clergy these days dissenters,. and
in increasing numbers. But the
exceptions, bright and reassuring
as they may be, are not yet so
numerous as to nullify the rule.
DAMAGE IRREPARABLE
Once the damage has been done
it may be irreparable. A chance
mark by a Sunday School
teacher, random passage in a
sermon, and a prejudice may have
been inculcated w h C h neither
years, subsequent education nor
the most eloquent exhortation can
eradicate. The child, having
grown into an adult, may forget
the experience which made him
an anti-Semite in embryo; he may
break with the church which af-
forded it to him, even with all
religion. His bias may nonethe-
less outlive its causes. Such is
Christendom's sin, committed
sometimes in full consciousness,
more often in carelessness, against
the Jews and itself, the grievous
guilt of which will remain until
Christian teaching and preaching
purge themselves of utterances
contrary to their ideals.
ECONOMICS INFLUENCE
Economics, along with religion,
has a role in the creation of anti
In a competitive So
ciety, the hand of each man is
against his brother, every advance
on the part of one individual be-
ing achieved only at the expense
Of another. The Gentle, strug-
Cling for a livelihood, takes the
competition, even the greater sue
cess, of fellow-Gentile with as
much grace as he can muster.
But when his competitor is a Jew,
ne grows resentfu1. This, he feels,
IS a competition to h h e
should not be subjected.
From this elemental struggle for
bread much of the impulse to an
si-Semitism stems. The shopkeep-
er sees in his Jewish competitor
an avoidable handicap. The un-
Christian regards envi-
ously the job filled by Jew.
History has fashioned the Jew in
20 a shrewd merchant and trader;
It has forced on him skill in
his way, circumstances
which serve only to fan the fury.
Had Poland and Rumania been
lands in the interval !
The Arizona post., 1948-10-01

between the two world wars, they
might not have been such pest
holes of bias. Germany itself
would have told a different story
had its economic life not collapsed
during the Twenties.
HUMAN PSYCHOLOGY
A third root of anti-Semitism is
human psychology. Thus, it is
part of mans animal heritage to
suspect the unknown, to fear
what he suspects and to hate what
he fears. The Jew being in some
degree an unknown, of different
background and modes of living,
the Gentle is tempted to suspect,
fear and hate him.
Implicated In group prejudice is
still another psychological tend
ency, the scapegoatism whereby
men and societies are forever
prone to blame others for their
own mistakes and misfortunes.
For this role of standing as whip
ping-boy for mankind's sins, er-
rors, disappointments, the Jew is
ideally suited. He is conspicuous
and influential enough to give
some show of plausibility to any
charges directed against him but
not strong enough to be able to
set up effective resistance.
The Arizona post., 1948-10-01
AN INTERPRETATION

Under the insight furnished by
dynamic psychology, a further
cause of anti-Semitism has been
suggested. Prejudice against the
Jew, it has been proposed, may
have another of its roots in a sup
pressed hostility on the part of
Christians against Christian mo-
rality, which inhibits the satisfac-
ton of their desires and impulses,
a restraint from which they would
be free were it not for Jesus, the
Apostles, and the Prophets before
them, all of them Jews. If this
analysis be correct, then, the anti
Semitic would hate Jews not, as he
claims, because they killed his
God, but because they gave and
imposed Him upon them.
USEFUL DEVICE
Finally, anti-Semitism is in no
slight measure the result of the
fact that it is so useful, that it
lends itself so readily to exploita-
ton by unscrupulous persons.
How many are the political and
economic uses to which prejudice
against the Jews can be and has
been put! It has been used to
divert public attention from
crimes, scandals and mass discon-
tent, as by the Russian Czarist
regime. It has been heaped up as
a stepping-stone to power, after
the precedent set by Hitler and
copied by his imitators. 1t has
been exported to disrupt entire
nations, to sew discords in their
populations and so soften them up
for conquest, a device brilliantly
exploited by Goebbels against the
Western democracies.
