Quote
“- Tommy Green: What's anti-semitism?
- Phil Green: Well, uh, that's when some people don't like other people just because they're Jews.
- Tommy Green: Why not? Are Jews bad?
- Phil Green: Well, some are and some aren't, just like with everyone else.
- Tommy Green: What are Jews, anyway?
- Phil Green: Well, uh, it's like this. Remember last week when you asked me about that big church, and I told you there are all different kinds of churches? Well, the people who go to that particular church are called Catholics, and there are people who go to different churches and they're called Protestants, and there are people who go to different churches and they're called Jews, only they call their churches temples or synagogues.
- Tommy Green: Why don't some people like them?
- Phil Green: Well, I can't really explain it, Tommy.”
