He urged the audience not to be bashful, and to act quickly in case the End Times were nigh. “I know you know Jewish people,” he told them. “You have an accountant, you have a lawyer…”
Gingrich, perched in the back, waited patiently to be introduced to the nationwide audience of pastors….

Firstly, all religions believe that non-adherants just don’t get it. So what? At least they weren’t talking about Jews as infidels, pigs or slime, to be eliminated.

Religious freedom for those that practice the most religiously tyrannical religion in our lifetimes.
