We are not physically or spiritually created equal. Some are more intelligent than others, some more beautiful than others, some born into wealth and others into poverty, some healthy, some sickly and so on.
Abraham was chosen, Moses was chosen, David was chosen and so on. And those who were not Abraham and not Moses and not David in their day were not thrilled about it.
Truly I do not see how anyone can look at the history of the Jews and not conclude that they are chosen, specially blessed and specially pruned. How many other nations have reformed with language and religion and customs after 2 millennia of been dispersed?
Christians are likewise chosen. And for evidence I point to the same broad sweep of history, of Western civilization - its great success and its pruning.
You don't understand the concept of "chosen". Jews are "chosen" to bring God to the world and not to flaunt the fact that they have found favor. If you hadn't noticed its not been exactly pleasant. They've been the objects of persecution for thousands of years and still are.
Christians are likewise chosen.
Perhaps. But not for the arrogance that's on display here.

Thanx to the Jews who gave them the eithical code that caused Western Civilization to thrive. To take credit for this is typical supercessionist arrogance.
