A friend of mine read it and considers at least a few passages if not the author as well anti semitic. I missed it. Everybody I have given the book to has said nothing. Am I an idiot? Anybody out there see it that way?

edited for clarity (I hope) Hey, I just got my ass chewed.

1. I thinkj the larger question is: does anyone have a clue as to what

you're talking about?

3. LOL! I've heard that before.

And that was pretty much my response to my friend who read the book.

She read it and found some passages in it anti semitic, and considers the author anti semitic as well. I read the book and liked it. Everybody I have given the book to has read it and liked it. Nobody other than her has found any anti semitic content in it and I didn't give it to any neo nazis.

But I value her opinion and I'm trying to figure out what's going on.

5. Deer Hunting With Jesus is not anti-semitic.

The author very critical of Israel's treatment of the Palestinians, how ever. It is also for certain that some of the people that he writes about are anti-semitic, but I don't believe that Joe is.

7. I don't remember anything anti-semitic in it

The Scotch-Irish might have reason to be mad at Joe, though :)
