    I learned that early on here when I did the same and provided a post link and got frustrated when someone told me it wasn't going to the post even though it did when I clicked on it (pretty sure I insulted their intelligence upon them saying that ). I then investigated after a second poster said the same, and went to a different browser or signed out (forget which), and then experienced what the poster was telling me, with it not going to the post.

Now my setting is for 30 posts per page but if it's supposed to go to a specific post that shouldn't matter.

She's been told this numerous times and still persists doing it.

    At best, the claim that there was no anti-Semitism as we know it in the ancient world has no support. But that was not your original claim anyway. Your original claim was that there was no anti-Semitism in the ancient world. Moreover, your claim that Nazism drew on church anti-Semitism, which had religious aspects, doesn't float if your definitions are accepted. Nazi anti-Semitism had precious little religious basis, but it did reflect already cited attitudes of 1 century pagan writers.
    Not to mention the Nazis were also targeting other people like homosexuals, Gypsies, Jehovah's Witnesses, etc., which by her definition that she's used, means that they weren't anti-semitic because there were other groups being discriminated against and harmed as well, outside of just Jews. Which is the argument she's used to claim there wasn't Greco-Roman antisemitism even though anyone with eyes can see it.

    It did. You simply have made up your own exclusionary definition for 'anti-Semitism as we understand and define it today', in order to blame Christians for anti-semitism, and as a result have basically defined Nazis as not anti-Semitic as well

    Search this thread for your posts. That's been your entire argument this entire time.

    Wasn't hungry yesterday morning so I went today.

    Asked for a three egg omelet rather than two. Seven sausage links, two patties (they're good again), ten strips of bacon, biscuit and gravy, fish, the muffin, 2 glasses of OJ and banana.

    Yeah. I'm stuffed.

    I don't think it is a trap but rather due to incompetence. Every time she has linked to a post that I've checked out it goes to the top of a page that doesn't include that post.
