Presbyterians Really Tick Off Traditional Jews

According to Christianity Today the PC(USA) has royally ticked off traditional Jews. First, we decided to continue to allow support for Messianic congregations. I supported that even though readers of this blog know I do not support Avodat Yisrael.

But the more political liberal portions of our denomination (which often but not always corresponds with the theologically liberal portion) got a resolution passed to study whether the PC(USA) should divest of any companies which do business in Israel.

Not North Korea or the Sudan. Even China would make sense. No.

The two combined aren't too good for interfaith relations. I strongly disagree with the second choice, but we will see if the leadership in the PC(USA) can handle a *gasp* lack of dialogue.
