[P. 885] {FEUER} “But this in turn leads to the Good Friday meadow, -- and I shall be happy to linger there.

[P. 176] {anti-FEUER} “ ‘Christ and the Gospels will live forever,’ R. says, but with the founding of the church and the interpolations in the Gospels everything was spoiled, for the first Christians saw the second coming of Christ as an abolition of the world, an end to earthly existence.’ “[946W-{10/20/78}CD Vol. II, p. 176]
[947W-{10/20/78}CD Vol. II, p. 177]
[P. 177] {FEUER?} “… Wolzogen, whose article , ‘The Stage Dedication Play,’ pleases R. very much, though he remarks to me that W. goes too far in calling Parsifal a reflection of the Redeemer: ‘I didn’t give the Redeemer a thought when I wrote it.’ “ [947W-{10/20/78}CD Vol. II, p. 177]

[P. 211] {FEUER} {SCHOP} “Coming back to Dis(raeli), he says, ‘What we read yesterday interested me far less than that single conversation,’ then he gets heated about the assumption that Jesus was Jew; it has not been proved, he says, and Jesus spoke Syriac-Chaldaean: ‘Not until all churches have vanished will we find the Redeemer, from whom we are separated by Judaism. But his ideas are not easy to grasp; God as the [P. 212] ending of the universe – that does not allow for a cult, though perhaps monasteries, in which people of similar beliefs could find a refuge and from which they could influence the world, from the solitary state – but within the world itself it is not possible.’ “ [950W-{11/27/78}CD Vol. II, p. 211-212]
