Today’s feature truly sickened me. On this date in 1349, about six thousand Jews were killed in the German city of Mainz. This was at the height of the bubonic plague, and Jews were often blamed as the ones who brought this horrible disease to Europe. On more than one occasion, Jews became the scapegoat. I had no idea that this ever happened. I cannot imagine how “Christians” would do this to a people who are still God’s chosen people.
