I got a (polite) email recently suggesting that a comic of mine might be antisemitic, and I thought it'd be nice to hear other opinions. For the record, I am Jewish, and thus liable to be antisemitic, however the claim was that by presenting Jesus as supplanting "original God" I was participating in a long-standing claim that Judaism is incomplete.
I can see how that might annoy a Jewish person, but not how it'd be antisemitic? If that's the standard, everyone's antisemitic.
