Do you consider yourself to be anti-Semitic?
Rather, anti-Jewish.

Anti-Semitic is an incorrect term since it implies that the contempt is for all Semitic peoples (which include the Arabs and Maltese, among others).

So, just to clarify your stance:

You define yourself as a Catholic who is anti-Jewish, and you are on this site seeking and asking if you will find a good Christian wife who is also Catholic and anti-Jewish.

And I will ask you: Do you have an alternative to offer me?

Because catholic.com forums (which would have been my closest option) closed about a year ago and all its threads were deleted.
Oh, I think you will find that this is the number one best Christian chat site available, and as you have already said, some have closed down and another I know of was hacked a few years back, after which they changed their platform and allowed huge ads to interrupt the reading of the conversations' flow (among other deteriorations). This site has never had ads and it is something to be grateful for indeed! Plus there is a fairly high level of tolerance for things which will immediately get you silenced or banned elsewhere. You really are welcome here as long as you do not try to push the beliefs considered heretical, or otherwise become abusive.

Honestly, what would you have expected from a believer whose Saviour was persecuted and killed by the Jews?

Thank you for stating your personal beliefs.

I don't personally share or agree with them, but I thank you for answering honestly.

Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.”

The Romans were the ones who actually crucified Jesus.

The people of Israel were complicit in His death.

But it was God's plan all along...

And the reason Jesus incarnated.

But...
1 Thessalonians 2:14-16
Yet we must line by line and precept by precept harmonize what is written.

It is like saying, a banana is yellow.

Is that a full description or definition of what constitutes a banana?

No, it is not.

The unbelieving world is responsible. The Jews sought to kill Jesus for quite some time, not all of them, mind, but definitely some and certainly the establishment, but it was the Romans who carried out the execution.

Pilate thought of Jesus as a guiltless man and did not intend to condemn Him. It was only the pressure of the crowds of Jews that forced him to give up and allow Jesus to be crucified. But the Romans never wanted to kill Him.

And yet they did.

And the only purpose of the Jew in this planet is to kill the goyim aka the non-Jews.
Hating a certain whole group of people because of their ethnicity... I know there is a word for this, it's right on the tip of my tongue...

But the guilty ones are the Jews, because if they did not persecute Jesus in a beginning, the Romans would not ever have done that.
The guilty ones are all of us, because if there was no sin He would not have gone to the cross.

The Romans do not get to shrug off their responsibility in the matter just because the Jews started it.

It was for this reason Jesus came into the world...

"Now my soul is troubled, and what shall I say? 'Father, save me from this hour'?
No, it was for this very reason I came to this hour. Father, glorify your name!"

Yes, but somehow there is not a single Bible verse cursing the Romans, but multiple of them cursing the Jews for His death.

Another example is Acts 2:22-23 as well as Acts 2:36

He was delivered up by God’s set plan and foreknowledge, and you, by
the hands of the lawless, put Him to death by nailing Him to the cross.


Who are the lawless in this verse to which you refer??? The Romans.

Yet, who are the ones the message is directed to??? The Jews!

Don't you realize that Jews behaved like Satan when they were tempting the Romans?

Of course Peter was speaking to Christians and Jews. He starts by saying: "Men of Israel."
