Talk:Luther and antisemitism

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The debate on whether to have a general article like this or to put this material in the On the Jews and Their Lies was hashed out among a number of editors 18 months ago, cf On the Jews talk page and its archives. I am not opposed to having this separate article because then one could have the material from Luther's other anti-Jewish writings here rather than in the On the Jews.--Drboisclair (talk) 12:52, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] The subtitle "Anitsemitic works"

In the interest of making this article NPOV I would urge that we relabel this section "Anti-Jewish Works." This would be more NPOV.--Drboisclair (talk) 18:12, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] The subtitle "Influence on modern antisemitism"

The sentence below fails to cite where its quotation came from:

On December 17, 1941, seven Lutheran regional church confederations issued a statement agreeing with the policy of forcing Jews to wear the yellow badge, "since after his bitter experience Luther had already suggested preventive measures against the Jews and their expulsion from German territory."

Who did the editing on this, and can we get them to cite the quote?
