My eyes are open.. the Jewish people are our salvation

I don't buy that whatsoever.

Yes I have been there, worked at Ramat Gan and has Israeli business partners...knew the place fairly well. Leftist American Jews must find Christian conservatives coveting them amusing and a little scary..

I'll pass...the only thing I feel religiously for Jews is in some cases cultural kinship...which I do not feel for Islam though we share some prophets with them as well and I suppose Christians and Jews do share Jehovah...more or less. Muslims would argue they do too but i have a hard time seeing Allah..from the Moon worship as being the same as Jehovah.

But claiming Jews are the key to our salvation same as Jesus is to me almost blasphemous other than the fact Jesus was born a Galilean Jew but I think we can safely say he transcended that quickly.

most Jews have heard the "word" for a long time, most choose to ignore it..sometimes for decent reasons...pogroms come to mind...and that is their right...i can't fault them but by the same token I fail to see how they are the key to my salvation...it appears to me that the reverse argument could be made.

Christianity has apparently gotten different. My church supports Israel very much in many ways..like the IDF family survivors funds from before our own wars with Islam began..but that is where it ends. It's easy to see and especially for anyone who has been there to tell that most Israelis are more like us than they are their neighbors..even though I have a hard time telling Yemeni and some other Sephardic or Oriental Jews from Lebanese or Hashemites...though usually you can tell physically

anyhow..fair enough..have a good nite sleep

PS...I lived in Manhattan for 8 years and Dade county for 6..I would argue I have been around both practicing and non practicing Jews more than most...Seders, both Mitzvahs, one bris, and whatnot many times...I even know what Purim is...fascinating folks...great company...rarely not bright...a lot to admire...but the leftist ones aggravate me to no end...it must be a real riot for Jewish conservatives...they have my sympathy
