That *something* could be many things. 1) You hate siding with liberal Jews against the Christian right of any denomination. Ater all, don't the same people who rail against the Christians also rail against the frum? 2) You don't like bashing the Catholics when we are already allied against the Muslims. 3) What about those damned Lutherans? 4) You resent that the author is a dirty hippie. 5) Ghettos are underrated. 6) Were the bloody Maccabees any better? (Oh, okay, that's not really <i>your</i> issue) 7) You think Carroll is pro-Palestinian and pro-Muslim somehow. 8) You like Orthodox religious hierarchies, and people with glass houses shouldn't throw stones. 9) Weren't the Romans kind of thugs before they went Christian? 10) Can't we find anything nice to say about Pious? “There is something in me that won’t let me join the chorus of otherwise nearly universal Jewish condemnation of the history of the Church, right up through more or less present times.”
