The essay critiques Candace Owens for aligning anti-Semitic rhetoric with Catholicism, pointing out that such views contradict Church teachings and history.
Candace Owens, a Catholic convert and former pundit at the Daily Wire, has come under fire for anti-Semitic rhetoric, including promoting the “blood libel” charge and linking Judaism to pedophilia. She is not alone among Jew-bashers with large online followings trying to claim the label of “Catholic right” these days (notorious anti-Semite Nick Fuentes and some lesser-knowns do the same). But Owens stands out because her recent conversion in April through London’s fabled Brompton Oratory has coincided with her increasingly impassioned attacks on Jews qua Jews, creating the impression that the two are linked.
They aren't. Neither she nor other Catholics inexplicably stirring up ancient hatreds can speak for Church teaching toward those whom Pope John Paul II called “our elder brothers in the faith of Abraham.”
The obvious hurdle to Catholic anti-Semitism is that Jesus was a Jew. In each of the four Gospel accounts of the Last Supper, Jesus calls his blood the “everlasting covenant”—the same phrase used to describe God’s covenants with Noah, Abraham, Moses, and David. He also said that he had not come “to abolish the law or the prophets,” but “to fulfill.”
