Antisemitism among Irish Christians at 'Medieval' levels, say researchers

Antisemitic attitudes among Christians in Ireland are 'disturbing' and 'Medieval,' due in large part to entrenched religious beliefs held by the Catholic community, according to a new survey. The study's findings revealed even stronger anti-Jewish sentiments in the Republic of Ireland than they found in their survey of the United Kingdom. The December 2024 study of 1,014 Christian adults in Ireland found that a third believe Jewish people 'still talk too much about what happened to them in the Holocaust.' Ireland's support for Israel is just a third of that in the United States, where the pair have conducted extensive research of Christian communities.
