I'm an agnostic, yet at an Iraq war FReep in San Fransisco I was accosted by a Pali chick who asked me the following question: "Do you know what the called Israel in the Bible?"
She was expecting me to say Palestine*
Without a moments thought, or any of MY volition the following words came out of my mouth:
"They called it the land that GOD HIMSELF gave to His chosen people, the Jews"
She blanched, turned on her heel and walked away...
*(Not true BTW, Palestine appears once in the Bible, in Joel, just as a place name not attached to any specific land)

Good answer, Nully. Bet she was steaming for a long time afterward as well.
