Identity Church
Is Threat To Society
(Cont’d from page 3)
bers have carried out violent
acts in the past. Wieland, also
from Colorado, has been pro
posed as pastor for the local
Identity Church, according to
Smith.
Not Much Response
Reports conflict as to the
response the ministers re
ceived at the gathering. Two
individuals sent to the meet
ing by the JCRB reported that
some of those in the audience
seemed very sympathetic but
that others were less than
stirred by the anti-Semitic
words.
In fact. Smith said, the two
JCRB observers told her that
Peters mustered little re
sponse when he asked those
present to echo his statements
with “amen.”
“They said that a lot of
people were skeptical,” Smith
stated. “They weren’t already
deeply into what was being
said.”
She added that after the
event, the JCRB received a
call from one woman who
wanted to voice her disgust
with the whole affair. “She
said she felt she had been
tricked,” Smith said. “She had
been really shocked at the
anti-Semitism. She thought
she was just going to a meet
ing for a Christian church.”
However, another observer
at the meeting told The
Chronicle that the anti-Semitic
rhetoric voiced at the event,
with the exception of a state
ment that violence against
Jews could be necessary, re
ceived much support.
The observers said that
overwhelming cries of “amen”
were heard in agreement to
statements such as Jews are
“Satan’s children” and that
Jews are the source of many
problems in the U.S.
Motel Warned About Meeting
Randy Gould, a member of
the steering committee of
RUAH/New Jewish Agenda
here, went to the motel to pro
test the event along with three
other individuals. They even
tually were requested to leave
the premises by the Grand
view police.
Gould maintained he called
the motel upon first hearing of
the event and said he warned
a motel worker about the
Christian Identity movement.
He suggested the motel
management “find out who
these people are and what they
stand for,” he said. A
spokeswoman for the Heritage
Inn acknowledged that two
calls had come in concerning
the meeting. She claimed the
callers “asked if the meeting
was being held here and
when.”
Rabbi A. James Rubin:
"Christian Identity is a
cancer attacking the body of
American society. We are deal
ing with an 18th century pro
blem in the 20th century...the
ideological heresies of these
hate groups which keep recur
ring because we have not
spoken out strongly enough
about them. Hate often needs
and uses religion as a base for
its development, and we can
not make these heresies go
away by ignoring them; they
stem from the hate mentality
of our society.”
