(JEWISH GROUP) The podcasters making antisemitism Christian again

“Satan is using the Hebrew language to undermine Christianity.”

This was the guiding argument of an episode I listened to from Stone Choir, a Christian theology podcast. The episode was ostensibly about different translations of the Bible — it was the first one I clicked on after seeing an article in a Christian outlet that referred to it as “the podcast no one is allowed to admit they listen to” and said it was sneaking Nazism into the church.

Though I’d never heard of Stone Choir, I found that, according to analytics site Listen Notes, Stone Choir is in the top .5% of podcasts globally.

The translation episode started off pretty niche, and I wasn’t sure what was going to be so controversial. The first hour or so was an exhaustive history of the Latin Vulgate bible, the first Latin bible; it’s the official bible of the Catholic church and has been around since the 4th century. The hosts, Corey J. Mahler and a man named Ryan Dumperth, who goes by Woe, debated the theological implications of the translation’s choices.

While it sure ain't purely a right-wing thing, MAGA, Making Anti-Semitism Great Again, has been WILDLY successful! So many takers! So many excuse makers!
