According to the gospels Christ was crucified by the Romans at the request of the Sanhedrin (a council of the Jewish community), but it was Pilate who ordered the crucifixion and Roman soldiers who did it. [Link][Link] NEEDS_MORE_RATINGS(16-3-26) Author

The Act doesn't criminalize believing that Jesus was handed over to the Romans to be crucified. The example of antisemitism it uses is the belief that "Jews killed Jesus", which is factually incorrect. The Bible clearly states that the Romans crucified Jesus not the Jews.

Luke 23:24 24 So Pilate decided to grant their demand. It is clear the Roman governor of Judea is the one who handed down the sentence. Death sentences could only be handed down by Roman officials. [Link] NEEDS_MORE_RATINGS(7-0-10) Author

NNN. MTG is expressing her opinion on why she won’t support the bill. As for the facts, it’s not just the gospel narrative that’s relevant. If you check Acts, for example, there are instances of the apostles saying “you killed him” while addressing Jewish audiences. [Link] NEEDS_MORE_RATINGS(2-1-1) Author

NNN - Jesus is a fictional character from a book, no different than Harry Potter. If MTG was trying to pass legislation against Voldemort then this would be a lot more obvious. [Link] NEEDS_MORE_RATINGS(0-0-2) Author
