My comment has nothing at all to do with whetehr or not I or you are a religiuos scholar. it has to do with the the fact the whole idea of God and a 'chosen people' is just that-an idea. It is NOT the truth.it is merely something written in a book that you and others have chosen to believe and to kill over. It is not a fact. The very idea that people thru the ages have killed because of this ridiculous mistake is astounding.

Re startingg a thread weeks after it was last discussed? Ordo you eman you would rather just have your mails accepted and agreed with and not challenged? It baffles me that iotherwise intelligent people can not see the oh so obvious flaws in their argument. You CANNOT claim the your authority, or that of Israel's, comes from a book which only men, and all of them, have decided is the Word of God. This is not fact, just an idea. > >Laurent
