Sarah Silverman, the American actress and comedian, has responded to a hate-filled antisemitic attack on her by a pastor of a Baptist church in Florida by sharing it and saying: “If I get murdered, start here”.
In a sermon given by Adam Fannin of Stedfast Baptist Church in Jacksonville, he called Ms Silverman a “witch”, “jezebel” and a “God-hating whore of Zionism.”
“I hope that God breaks her teeth out and she dies,” he continued. “She is a wicked person and she is like the perfect representation of religious Judaism.”
Ms Silverman has said in the past that she is a secular Jew, as she is agnostic but comes from a Jewish family. Her sister is a Rabbi.
