Reply to "So if Jeremy Corbyn is antisemtic for promoting Hobson's "Imperialism" is the Arch Bishop of Canterbury antisemitic for reading the New Testament?"

What claptrap! Being Christian does not mean you believe and adhere to every word written in the bible.

Well it does!  Jesus was after all "betrayed" by Jews for material gain.  That is the central message of Jesus's crucifixion.  His people sold him out for material gain.  

 

That is what drove the pogroms throughout history, that the Jews had sold out God's true son.

 

So if you're going to call Corbyn an antisemite for writing a forward to a book that's chief purpose is to oppose imperialism as a tool of the state subsidising the elite, with a bit of racism and antisemitism thrown in then IT REALLY does follow that  Christians should be treated the same way.  However, the antisemitism of Hobson is nothing compared to the antisemitism of the New Testament.
