Jesus was definitely Jewish. I'm still a good six months away from polishing off my paper "Bad Samaritans" which shows that anti-immigrant sentiment is heavily concentrated among sectarian Protestants, and, interestingly, non-immigrant Catholics.

It is striking how little rank-and-file Catholics seem to recall their own relatively recent immigrant antecedents. I'd have thought that the large Latino component of the American Catholic population would have pushed the overall Catholic anti-immigrant numbers lower.
