Ahhhh, I always get a brain freeze when I hit that word "revisionist"! Re_vision_ista... revised... altered... reworked... modified in a way that may lead one from the truth, etc. I'm game, so I'll do the read to see whose fault it is that the jeuden got such a bad rap. Oh jeuden, poor, poor jeuden. thanx Smirk.

John Gager, author "The Origins of Anti-Semitism: Attitudes toward Judaism in Pagan and Christian Antiquity", is one of most respected scholars in religions of Roman Empire. His studies are considered scientific and reliables works and do not anything to do with the ridicoulous books written by so called revisionist historians (Irving and his discredited friends).

Some reviews of this book from Amazon:

"A book of compelling and powerful historical argument. Coherent and well documented, his fresh approach treats a difficult problem in a remarkably interesting way. No one concerned with the troubled relationship between Judaism and Christianity, whether in ancient or modern times, can afford to ignore it."--The Journal of Religion
"This book brings the study of ancient Pagan and Christian anti-Semitism to a new plateau where one sees things more clearly and, I dare say, more correctly."--Krister Stendahl, Harvard Divinity School
"A stunning challenge to some widely accepted ideas on the genesis of anti-Semitism....Priority reading for church historians--and anyone else who wants to study the religious roots of the Holocaust."--Kirkus Reviews
"Solidly grounded in authentic evidence and reliable rcholarship."--Journal of Ecclesiastical History
"A major contribution to a better understanding of the roots of anti-Semitism in Western culture."--Judaica Books News
