A good argument can be made that your an antisemitic loon who knows diddly squat about Judaism or Islam. All Muslims, and that includes the Palestinians, are required to conquer the world for Allah and chop of the heads of all the kafirs (infidels) who do not convert to Islam and worship Allah. You good with that? The Jews and Israel and first on the list. You and America are next.

BTW, raping all the infidel babies, little girls, and women is an Allah granted bonus in their jihad against the infidels. I suppose you're OK with that too?

Please note that I have Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry on my father's side, but my mom is not Jewish. So, technically I am not Jewish becuase one's mom has to be Jewish to be considered a real Jew. Nevertheless, while I am not Jewish or religious I still identify as being part Jew, and I am not antisemitic. Zionism is not the same Judaism. There are many Jews who are not Zionist. and there are many Zionist who are not Jews. Zionism is a racist ideology that says Jews are the chosen ones, and that God promised them some land, and that God views Jews more favorability than he does other people. I am not religious myself, and I believe strongly in the separation of church and state. I think that religious countries are bad idea, be them Christian, Muslim, Buddhists, Hindu, or Jewish states. I think that it would be a good idea for Israel to change their constitution so that they are a secular country, like the USA, and the rest of the civilized world.

The biggest problems with most Jews, is that they don't read, let alone believe, their own holy book, the Tanakh. I'd suggest that YOU start in Isiah chapter 53.

It was GOD that said Jews are the chosen ones, and that GOD promised them some land, and that GOD viewed Jews more favorable than he does other people. That's because GOD made a covenants with his people.

There are 7 covenants, recorded in the the Tanakh but unfortunately, some are held in high esteem (the land) and the most important one is ignored - the New Covenant, the very last one, which replaces much of the older ones. You'll find that in Jeremiah chapter 31. It specifies who the real Jews are.

It's not religious countries that are the problem. ISLAM is the problem.

BTW, the foundation of the USA is based on Judea-Christian principles.

Please note that the foundation of the USA is based upon the separation of church and state. I'm curious are you Jewish or Christian? It is my understanding that many evangelical Christians believe that the return of Jews to Israel is the first step towards armageddon, after which Jesus Christ will return. However, it seems that a lot Christians don't fully comprehend what happens at the end of that story, which is that, please correct me if I am wrong, all of the Jews burn in hell. I personally don't put significance into these types of prophecies, but find it strange that evangelical Christian Zionist seem to defend Israel becuase of this underlying belief, and even more strange since at the end of the story the Jews burn in hell.

No it is not. The concept is not found in either the Declaration of Independence nor Constitution. It was taken, out of context, from a letter written by President Jefferson to the Danbury Baptists who wanted their denomination to be the state religion. Interestingly, if you research it, you'll find that the vast number of the Founders of America were, what we would call today, "evangelical Christians" and the few that were not, like Jefferson and Franklin, were Deists, although Jefferson, who wrote the "Jefferson Bible" (actually the New Testament) later said he was a "Christian."

I am a follower of the Messiah, Yeshua. BTW, the word "Christian" is not in the Bible. It is a transliteration of the Hebrew word for "Messiah" from the Latin.

Many evangelical Christians believe in the return of Jews to Israel because it is prophesied in the Tanakh and a harbinger of the "last days." The very fact of Israel's existence and the return of Jews to their homeland after 1,900 years, something that never happened before in the history of the world for any ancient nation or people, is fulfilled prophecy.

At the end of the story, all people, with some exceptions, who have not accepted the Messiah , who paid the price for their sins, as their savior will burn in hell.

BTW, many Jews are Messianic Jews. Their sins are forgiven per the requirements of the Law that most Jews conveniently ignore. I've seen sources that claim over 500,000 Jews have become Messianic Jews in the last decade. That's a big number for so few Jews.

BTW2: the Bible is full of prophecies . Just the main ones regarding the Messiah being fulfilled results in a number greater than all the atoms in the known universe. That's rather significant so you might want to look into it.

Sorry, not in the constitution, but it's in the first amendment, which was ratified in 1791. I consider freedom of religion as being a principal that makes the US great. Considering that the many Christians believe that Jews along with the Muslims are going to burn in hell for not accepting the Messiah, it seems strange to me that these same Christians will characterize Jews as being a Godly, honest, humane, caring people, and Muslims as being barbaric, lying, filthy animals. And, if Christians believe that God views Jews as the chosen ones, and looks favorably among them, why would he have them all burn in hell on the last days? Doesn't really make any sense to me.

The First Amend .does not address the separation of church and state. In fact, Jefferson who penned the phrase, paid for the Bibles to be printed and for Christian missionaries to go to the Native Americans.. He did that as POTUS. The 1st amend. was clearly to protect the

church from government.

“It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often that this great nation was founded, not by religionists but by Christians, not on religions, but on the Gospel of Jesus Christ."

Patrick Henry

"The highest glory of the American Revolution was this: that it tied together in one indissoluble bond, the principles of civil government with the principles of Christianity."

John Quincy Adams

"Of all the habits and dispositions which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are

indispensable supports. In vain would that man claim the tribute of patriotism, who should labor to subvert these great pillars."

George Washington

Joseph Story, the youngest Associate Justice ever appointed to the Suprme Court , who served from 1812 to 1845, and who is considered my many as the "Father of American jurisprudence" stated:

"I verily believe Christianity necessary to the support of civil society. One of the beautiful boasts of our municipal jurisprudence is that Christianity is a part of the Common Law... There never has been a period in which the Common Law did not recognize Christianity as lying its foundations."

In 1843, a Philadelphia school wanted to teach morals without using the Bible and was sued for it. The Supreme Court ruled against them and said "Why may not the Bible, and especially the New Testament, be read and taught as a divine revelation in the schools? Where can the purest principals of morality be learned so clearly or perfectly as from the New Testament."

SUPREME COURT - 1844 - VIDAL VS GIRARD

"That if we, and our posterity, shall be true to the Christian religion, if we shall respect his commandments, if we, and they, shall maintain just, moral sentiments, and such conscientious convictions of duty as shall control the heart and life, we may have the highest hopes of the future fortunes of this country."

Daniel Webster, 1852

Our laws and our institutions must necessarily be based upon and embody the teachings of the Redeemer of mankind, and it's impossible that it should be otherwise: and in this sense and to this extent our civilization and our institutions are emphatically Christian.

SUPREME COURT - 1892 –CHURCH OF THE HOLY TRINITY VS U.S.

I could give you MANY more.

It was that way up until the early 1900s and then the progressives,, atheists, socialists, and communists started taking control of America...

"It was that way up until the early 1900s and then the progressives,, atheists, socialists, and communists started taking control of America.." Don't forget Zionist. Zionist have also taken control of America. Have you heard of AIPAC? While I agree that the explicit separation of church and state was not in the first amendment, the 1st amendment did grant freedom of religion, which I consider to be a fundamental principal of the USA.

What the hell is your problem with Zionism? After what the Jews have been through for the last 1900 years, including your relatives, why wouldn't they want their own homeland? Which, by the way was an arid wasteland in 1949.

I'll take Jews living next to me any day before Muslims. For the most part, Jews don't read the Tanakh and just want to be doctors, lawyers, etc. When Muslims read their holy book, the Quran, too many of them believe what it says and want to kill all the non-Muslims.

The first Jew appointed to the SC was in 1916. The second was in 1939. While I don't know if they were Zionists or not, at least they weren't bat shit crazy loons like Ginsburg was.

What the hell is your problem with Zionism? Zionism is a relatively new ideology that started in the late 1800's, and has caused a lot of problems for Jews, Muslims, and others since it's formation. Similar to communism, which also happened to be a Jewish ideology (yes, Karl Max is Jewish), Zionism is an insidious ideology, that is founded upon racists nationalistic principals, which are antithetical to a free civilized society.

right... Jews (of all nationalities) just want to be left alone to live in peace and somehow that's insidiously wrong.

BTW, you're sounding more and more like an antisemitic, white supremacist, Nazi.
