'''''The Christian Century''''' is a [[magazine]] closely associated with the [[Ecumenical Movement]]. It was founded in 1884 and is still published today. It has long been known for advocating very [[liberal]] views of [[theology]] and the [[Bible]], such as [[higher criticism]] and the [[social gospel]]. As such it was frequently criticized by [[fundamentalist]] and [[evangelical]] [[Christian]]s, and the magazine ''[[Christianity Today]]'' was founded by evangelicals in 1956 as a response to counter the influence of ''The Christian Century''.

In ''American Protestantism and a Jewish State'' (1973) an Israeli government official [[Hertzel Fishman]] analyzed the ''Christian Century'' and concluded that the magazine is [[Anti-Semetic]], stating "[[Liberal Christianity|Liberal Protestanism]] consistently and historically opposed a Jewish State in Palestine, obstructed immigration of Jewish refugees, minimized the Holocaust, tried to reduce Israel's boundaries and supported Arab 'rights'."<ref name=Rausch>''[http://books.google.com/books?id=-BPjHQAACAAJ Zionism Within Early American Fundamentalism 1878-1918: A Convergence of Two Traditions]'', [[David A.
