The ordinance, which is intended to prevent fraud in the solicitation of funds and which is aimed at the Church of Scientology, is so broadly framed, according to Samuel Rabinove, the AJCommittee legal direc- tor, "that it would be bur- densome to all organiza- tions engaged in legitimate fund raising." "complete panoply of the devil's own." Dr. Trachtenberg analyzes these attitudes toward Jews by the hostile Christian world and clearly shows that they are "based on the crassest superstition and credulity that have permeated to the lower depths of Western culture." He indicates that while the upper hierarchy of the Catholic Church urged tolerance, the lower clergy engaged in constant agita- tion and persecution.
