Gregory I

The letter Sicut Judaeis and others were double edged swords, and not simply issued for protection of Jews. For example Gregory I in his epistles encouraged conversion of the Jews and forbade Jews to own Christian slaves. The standard set by Gregory was: "Just as no freedom may be granted to the Jews in their communities to exceed the limits legally set for them, so they should in no way suffer through a violation of their rights"

It is interesting that this confirmation of persecution and discriminatory laws is viewed as "protection" - but it is a gross distortion of reality. [[Mewnews (talk) 09:15, 22 March 2009 (UTC)]]Reply

How exactly is the above-quoted passage "discriminatory"?--46.171.197.14 (talk) 20:54, 15 January 2016 (UTC)Reply
There was laws restricting Jews. "Just as no freedom may be granted to the Jews" implies no more disadvantages are to be put on them since the legal system is persecuting the Jews good enough. 2601:982:8202:CDA0:C101:2435:84F0:4301 (talk) 20:34, 25 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

Missing half the story of Sicut Judaeis

edit

What kind of propaganda attempt is this? Why is it not mentioned that Jewish populations were not allowed to subvert Christian culture or they would face pograms or removal from Christian lands. Is this an attempt by the Israelis on wikipedia to cover up the past of world Jewry? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.105.44.197 (talk) 07:46, 29 September 2018 (UTC)Reply
