Toni, I would have to say the rapist should be barred, as he is the only known criminal amongst the group.
I fail to see why there was a need to bring up JC, when he is dead, and not on the list of possible patrons?

There is no way any of these people can be barred legally before they enter the place, and actually do something on the premises that would entitle the publican to bar them. Even the rapist cannot be discriminated against. Why not simply ask people who they think is the worst person?

I cannot decide who is the worst person simply by their label. To make a judgment on a person solely by their label is prejudice.

david,
Jews are a race of of people of which Jesus was one, Christianity is the religion founded by him, as he taught his followers. There were and are many religious sectors among Jews. Religion and race are separate distinctive features of a person.

All descriptors given can equally be as bad as each other. Remember "bad" is a moral descriptor of character.

Jesus did not found Christianity. He was not a Christian regardless of how hard you try to make him one. After Jesus was dead other people made his worship into a religion. Jews are not a race. There are blond blue-eyed Jews. There are black Jews and everything in between. Jesus observed the Jewish religion and never denied it. That makes him a Jew.

I agree with your last sentence.

Hi David,

If we are to assume Jesus Christ actually existed, and is not some compensate character in the guise of a King Arthur or Robin Hood, or even one of those mythical characters. One of the few things that Christians and myself agree on is the existence of Christ. There is no evidence even from Christian sources that Christ set out, intentionally or accidentally, to form a complete new religion based on the concept of a "new god" with "new teachings", but rather was a devout Jew, committed to the traditional god and the tradition practices and teaching of the common Jewish religion, it was so to the very end, as demonstrated by the celebration of the Jewish Passover (last supper) shortly before his death. The acceptance of the Jewish Bible by his followers attests to their faith in Judaism, although there have been several rewrite of the book, but even to this day it has at least retained the essence of the original. Christ from a Christian view point tried to give interpretation to the teachings of Judaism rather than create complete new teachings. The Gospels written well after Christ, do not try and recant what is contained in the Bible but rather attempt to give prominence to Christ himself as part of the development of the Jewish religion. Christianity has been most successful, and is today the leading sect within Judaism, although somewhat fragmented, with Catholicism being the main denomination. Islam is the other prominent sect to have grown out of Judaism, whilst the traditionalist, mostly Jews themselves, have slipped to third place in the order.

I agree, Jesus Christ was of the Jewish religion. Most likely Judaism developed from some other ancient form of worship.
