I hope youtube videos are allowed in place of news stories... This is straight to the point and speaks for itself unlike many fluff articles filled with ads and sensationalism

The King received an unwanted memento from a visit to a seaside resort where he celebrated the work of local charities – a splattering from a seagull.

Charles joked about his encounter with the bird that left its mark on the bottom of his suit jacket as he toured the Northern Ireland town of Newcastle.

The King was about to start a meet and greet with the public that lined crash barriers along the main street when the bird’s droppings struck, hitting Charles and those around him including the press.

Irene Marting, 64 from the village of Dromara near Lisburn, was waiting in the crowds with her sister Paula Leitch to see the King and witnessed the incident unfold from across the street.

After sharing a joke with Charles about the moment she said: “We were talking to the King about the seagull and he said ‘it’s well it didn’t land on my head’.

“Somebody was trying to get him to put a coat on but he didn’t, being hit by a seagull it’s supposed to be good luck.

“We’re so thrilled he’s come to Northern Ireland to see us and it’s really nice to see him in Newcastle.”

Earlier the King hailed “amazing” foodbank volunteers when he packed boxes of groceries for those in need during his second day in Ulster.

Charles was given the task of filling two boxes with bread, vegetables, tinned goods and toiletries when he met helpers from the Pantry Foodbank based in a church in Newcastle.

He was told by the Pantry’s chairman John O’Neill the items were for one individual and later while looking at boxes destined for a family he made the volunteers laugh when he touched a toilet roll and said “very important”.

Recently I stumbled across this Wikipedia article on Jewish Deicide. It seems to be the doctrine of a collective guilt/charge on what I take to be rabbinic Jews for the death of Jesus.A piece of Scripture that is often used to support it is Matthew 27:25 where the Jewish crucifixion mob at Jesus trial say that the blood of Jesus should be on them and their children.

Other references include the likes of Acts 13:27 and 1 Thessalonians 2:14-15

I have researched it, but it appears Google is filled with either Jewish or Zionist sources complaining about this doctrine and labelling it as antisemetic. On the linked wikipedia article, it even criticises the legitimacy of the New Testament itself as an attempt to attack the idea.

Now, first off, and as a moderator of this community, calling for the harm of Jewish people is not tolerable nor Christian, nor by the rules of this site. Personally, if I were to take this doctrine as true, I would see it as a display/magnification of God's Love and Grace, as Jews are sinners like everyone else and can be forgiven, despite, for the sake of argument, bearing such a charge. Since we are both sinners, made in the image of God, etc, etc, it won't be acceptable at all to try and persecute Jews due to this doctrine.

If this doctrine were true, it doesn't justify the persecution of Jews.

However, as I said, the articles criticising the idea mainly seem to cite the antisemetism that people used this doctrine to justify. I don't think this is correct theological exegesis, as we should be determining our theology from The Bible foremost, with perhaps some Christian writings as well if they lay it out clearly. Essentially, I don't think I can reject this doctrine based on eisegesis.

Also, my mind is not made up on this doctrine, that's why I'm asking here.

I'll say it again, I will punish any displays of hatred towards Jewish people. It has no place in this community. But whether or not they bear the weight of this charge is strictly a theological matter. It doesn't make them any less eligible to God's Grace, who would forgive them even if they were collectively guilty of this (which is powerful). Nor does it invalidate the fact that they are made in the image of God and should be loved and protected like every other human.

I also think there's an aspect that we're all guilty of killing Jesus. So that's also worth throwing in there.

Also, please only really answer this post if you want to have a somewhat productive conversation about this.
