"Giuliani railed against how Jewish people “want to go through that freaking Passover all the time” and how they should “get over the Passover” because it was 3,000 years ago. “OK, the Red Sea parted,” the transcript reads. “Big deal. Not the first time that happened.”"

So some Jewish rabble-rouser was crucified by the Roman overlords for sedition. "The Christ was crucified for this... the Christ was crucified for that," This happened 2000 years ago so the Christians should just get over it. OK, someone was executed for political/religious reasons. Big deal. Not the first time that happened.
IDK if you are misinterpreting my post or if I am misunderstanding your reply. My post was not intended to be a screed against Christianity. It is meant as a direct slam of Giuliani, and the ignorant antisemitism he professes in the quote.
I don't have a problem with (most) Christians, nor for that matter against anyone who lives within their faith (again, with some exceptions like the so-called Evangelicals who think that the Apricot Arthropod is the Second Coming). As for where I personally stand on organized religion, to paraphrase Groucho Marx: I would never join a Church that would have me as a parishioner.
As I said, I have no problems with people of any faith, with the caveat I failed to add before in that they actually practice what they preach. In my own case I call myself an agnostic seeking gnosis.
We are on the same page regarding Giuliani. I look forward the seeing his face when Ms Willis and a few other local and state attorneys general hold him accountable for the bovine scat he so eagerly spread. But the frosting on the cake will be his expression when he realizes, should the Apricot Arthropod get reelected [turns head, spits three times between index and middle fingers] there will be no forthcoming pardons since POTUS can't interfere with state convictions.
(FWIW, I met his most recent ex many times back in the '80s. and early '90s I've wondered what took her so long to kick his ass to the curb.)
