The result of <strong>the</strong>se anti-Jewish teachings continued onwards<br />
throughout Church history, manifesting in such events and<br />
actions as <strong>the</strong> Crusades, <strong>the</strong> accusation of communion host<br />
desecration and blood libel by <strong>the</strong> Jews, <strong>the</strong> <strong>for</strong>ced wearing of<br />
distinguishing marks to ostracize <strong>the</strong>m, <strong>the</strong> Inquisition, <strong>the</strong><br />
displacement of whole Jewish communities by exile or<br />
separate ghettoes, <strong>the</strong> destruction of synagogues and Jewish<br />
books, physical persecution and execution, and <strong>the</strong> Pogroms.<br />
Ultimately, <strong>the</strong> seeds of destruction grew to epic proportions,<br />
culminating in <strong>the</strong> Holocaust, which occurred in "Christian"<br />
Europe. Protestant and Evangelical Christianity has been<br />

Although Lu<strong>the</strong>r did not invent anti-Jewishness, he promoted<br />
it to a level never be<strong>for</strong>e seen in Europe. Lu<strong>the</strong>r bore <strong>the</strong><br />
influence of his upbringing from anti-Jewish <strong>the</strong>ologians such<br />

hatred to a new level when he proposed to set fire to <strong>the</strong>ir<br />
synagogues and schools, to take away <strong>the</strong>ir homes, <strong>for</strong>bade<br />
<strong>the</strong>m to pray or teach, or even to utter God's name. Lu<strong>the</strong>r<br />
wanted to "be rid of <strong>the</strong>m" and requested that <strong>the</strong> government<br />
and ministers deal with <strong>the</strong> problem. He requested pastors<br />
and preachers to follow his example of issuing warnings<br />
against <strong>the</strong> Jews. He goes so far as to claim that, "We are at<br />
fault in not slaying <strong>the</strong>m" <strong>for</strong> avenging <strong>the</strong> death of Jesus<br />
Christ. Hitler's Nazi government in <strong>the</strong> 1930s and 40s fit<br />
