A Christian Church, by it's very definition is opposed to Isreal which is a non-Christian nation.

Wha? Since when is the "Christian Church" by definition "opposed" to non-Christian nations?

At least that is my impression. How many Christian churches are there in Israel?

There are certainly a few that I went to when I went on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land. The Annunciation Basilica in Nazareth, the Church of the Transfiguration on Mount Tabor. Of course there are also several churches in the Old City of Jerusalem, which is currently controlled by Israel.

I did not say Christians are opposed to all non-Christian nations as you have accused me of. Christian Churches send missionaries to all corners of the globe and they preach peace and love.

I speaking of definitions and the difference between Christian believing people and the Jewish people. By definition a Christian Church pertains to the followers of Jesus Christ. It is my understanding the Jewish faith does not accept that concept. Therein lies the difference in definition.
