Republicans Voting for Bill That Could Make 'Bible Illegal' Outrages MAGA...House antisemitism bill not an attack on Christian Scriptures, scholars say...Did the House of Representatives Just Outlaw Quoting Parts of the New Testament?

"MAGA conservatives voiced outrage at Congressional Republicans voting for the Antisemitism Awareness Act over concerns it would make the Bible illegal.

Congress on Wednesday passed the bill, which would require the Department of Education to use the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) working definition of antisemitism when enforcing anti-discrimination laws. It comes as colleges across the United States have seen pro-Palestinian protests that critics say at times have allegedly veered into antisemitism."

"Some lawmakers voted against a House bill that instructs the Education Department to consider a recognized definition of antisemitism when probing anti-Jewish discrimination at schools, colleges and universities as effectively outlawing the Bible’s New Testament.

However, experts in the Bible and evangelism pushed back Thursday at the claims made by several Republican House members and media figure Tucker Carlson that HR 6090, the Antisemitism Awareness Act of 2023, makes the historic Christian Scriptures illegal."

"Kirk, who is a strong supporter of Israel, asked on X, “Did the House of Representatives just make parts of the Bible illegal?”

Carlson, who has increasingly been accused of harboring antisemitic views, responded with, “Yes. The New Testament.”

Torba, who himself is frequently accused of antisemitism, sent out an email on May 2 titled, “The House Passes H.R. 6090: A Threat to the Christian Faith.”"
