Anti-Judaism is described by Wikipedia as "total or partial opposition to Judaism—and to Jews as adherents of it—by persons who accept a competing system of beliefs and practices and consider certain genuine Judaic beliefs and practices as inferior." Anti-Judaism, as a rejection of a particular way of thinking about God, is stated to be distinct from anti-Semitism, which is stated to more akin to a form of racism. Scholars wishing to blur the line between theology and racism have since coined the term religious anti-Semitism. Nevertheless, the concept of Judaism has been challenged over the past two thousand years by scholars of both Christendom and Islam.
