For many in the Jewish community, so-called "Christian Seders" are "100% cultural appropriation"

Why many Evangelicals are baking challah crosses, roasting lamb Jesuses and overlooking 2,000 years of harm

I'm going to share a few links about why these events are so bad. All the links I will share are from a Jewish perspective, but I know allies have expressed their feelings from a Christian perspective as well, and explained why these Christian Seders are not good. I urge you to share the links you have on this topic, and to share the information on this thread.

Together, maybe we can put an end to this.

Christian Seders are offensive on quite literally every level. It is no exaggeration to express that as a Jew, I find them as, if not more offensive than the kind of direct antisemitism we experience, when someone vandalizes a synagogue with a swastika.

For Jews, participation in such an event is a hateful act, and we have begged our Christian friends and neighbors to stop them, yet they continue and grow every year, bringing increasing trauma onto our people.

As we approach the Passover season, on behalf of Jews everywhere, I ask you my non-Jewish friends, to please put an end to "Christian Seders"..

I know some participate in these events thinking that they're well meaning homages to Jewish ritual, but for Jews, they are entirely and deeply offensive. They are a grotesque parody of a sacred ritual, and a direct reminder of Christian oppression and destruction of the our people. They are #antisemitism.
