It speaks to the tolerance Jews have for those of other religions.
I was listening to Christian radio back around Hanukkah/Christmas and they had a Jewish (can't recall if they converted to Christianity or not) couple, and from their mouths, they said Jews have a "disgust, a revulsion" when they think about Jesus Christ.
So...how is that tolerance? I mean, if they feel that way about our God, our Christ, how in the world am I to believe they feel about me? Feeling "revulsion and disgust" about my God I can only imagine how they feel about me...and I wouldn't call it tolerant.

That particular Jewish couple may have made the statement you quote, although I highly doubt it considering it was on a Christian radio source. At any rate, none of the Jews I know feel "disgust or revulsion" about either Christ or Christians. You consider Jesus = G-d; we don't. I do get frustrated with Christians who tell me I'm going to hell if I don't accept Jesus as my personal savior. We don't try and change your beliefs.

Not making it up at all. 900 - local Christian station here in the Twin Cities (MN).
It's not like it's hard to find info how Jews feel about Christian/Christ online.
Let's not act like it's a "tolerant" view of the Christian faith.
I wish more Protestants (I am Protestant) knew how Martin Luther felt about the Talmudic. They might just revise how they feel about the situation altogether if they knew his views on the situation.

Martin Luther was a notorious anti-Semite. If he were alive today he would be railing about the "Zionist Occupied Government" like some of the local CD neo-nazis are fond of doing.
Nope. Wrong. He was not. He was critical of the Temple, but he was not an "anti-semite" (I believe that label is quite disingenuous to begin with, FWIW).

He spent his life trying to convert Jews, and when he couldn’t, he got frustrated and lashed out at them. He called for their synagogues and homes to be burned, and for them to be forced into slave labor.
His “teachings” gave cover to the Protestant clergy in Germany to justify their acceptance of the Nazi third reich.

Is that why Jews today have such a "tolerance" for Protestantism?

One couple does not define all Jewish people.
Speculation on my part, most Jewish people don’t feel one way or another about Jesus, beyond not recognizing him as the Messiah. In contrast, Islam views Jesus as a prophet of God, the Messiah.

No. Jews for the most part, are fine with Protestantism. Protestants for the most part, are fine with Jews. In 2020, they live in relative harmony.
I have no doubt that there are a few bad apples on both sides. I think we may have a some of those bad apples here on this forum.
