This is a fact. I looked it up in my little Sedur (Jewish prayer book).
The exact prayer is this:
"Blessed are you, Hashem, King of the Universe, for not having made me a Gentile."
"Blessed are you, Hashem, King of the Universe, for not having made me a slave."
Blessed are you, Hashem, King of the Universe, for not having made me a woman."
This prayer is said every morning by millions of Jews around the world.
Should Jews stop saying this prayer, as it is highly offensive to non-Jews and women? (and slaves)
I say, it is the 21st century, and its time to evolve.
Plus the fact that Jews make a huge stink about Catholic prayers that are deemed offensive to Jews. Its time to practice what we preach.
