who look at prophetic scriptures as allegorical and not literal

Everybody does this. Or are you expecting to see a literal dragon at a literal seashore? A literal woman in heaven?

What is replacement theology?

A perjoritive term for the notion that God's people are not now necessarily physical descendants of the partriarch Jacob's sons.

Romans does say that God has plans to do good things to "Israel according to the flesh" before it's all over with -- noone denies that (or should, anyway).

I believe that Israel has its own destiny aside from that of Christians.
