Pastor John Hagee Bible Thumping (for the Jews)
1SA 6:19 God kills seventy men (or so) for looking into the Ark (at
him?). (Note: The early Israelites apparently thought the Ark to be
God's abode.)
"Don't look at the man-in-the-boat."
--- Rev. Hagee

"Some Jews Just Don't Like Christians." ....And most Christians,
privately, don't like or trust Jews despite the friendly forced public
appearance - especially with the Bible thumping Evangelical
Christians.
So, why is ****ky Pig thumping for the Jews?
It's because America is allegedly a Christian nation, and because the
early Jewish scribes proclaimed that there would be a second coming of
G-d, in the Old Testament, and a small group of Jewish political
dissidents claimed the unemployed trouble making public speaker, named
Jesus, was the predicted second comer.
Ergo, without the Jews and their second coming promise, the Christians
would be up the creek without a leader. Hallelujah . Do I hear an
"Amen"
Christians don't trust Jews. Jews don't trust Christians. They never
did and never will and for good reason. How would you like to be a Jew
and told that in the end days, your ass is mud if you are not of the
Christian faith.
Ironically, these days, Christians have to publically pretend that
they are in harmony with the word. The Jews need the Christian Right
to defend their politics against the Arab world. And they get it.
The Right argues that the Jews, according to the Book and G-d's
orders, have every right to the land they now occupy and more if need
be. The Jews like this arrangement, but they do not need the
Christians as bad as the Christians need the Jews.
I have often wondered why the Christians are so willing to approve and
defend the Zionist colonization of Palestine when, at the same time,
they complain that the Jews killed their leader? Could it be that, for
Christianity, the Jewish prophesy of the second coming of a messiah is
necessary for the Christ of the New Testament to be real?
It doesn't matter that the Jews do not accept Jesus as their messiah;
the Christians are stuck with the second coming tale and the rest of
the Old Testament with its violence, gardens, sea-splitting and the
rest of the deal-warts and all.

Obviously , without the Jewish prophesy, Jesus would have been just
another unemployed, radical Jewish "Hippie" leading a twelve man
committee of future biographers and creating trouble for the local
politicians.
A few years back, the Right was touting the phrase,"God is Dead"
hoping that they would be able to get folks to ignore the Old
Testament and start with the cleaned up Christian version of the good
old days in the Middle East. No Numbers (1-54) with its atrocities
here.
They borrowed from the Jews and even from a religion much older than
Christianity-that being Zoroasterianism, a much more reasonable
religion. For those that are new to the word, I suggest you read
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zoroastrianism
I am not trying to convert anyone. I am simply attempting to show
where Christians got most of their plot.
Today there are about a million and a half members in the Zoroastrian
community. In the US most are located in colleges and universities and
practice their religion which is dedicated to a three-fold path which
consists of , "Good thoughts, good words and good deeds."
"Christians are obligated to learn not about Jews but from Jews, not
out of fear of Jews, but out of the need to discover and appreciate
the shape of Christianity's own heritage through a deeper knowledge
and appreciation of the gift that g-d has allegedly given-and keeps
giving-to the Jews.
"Learning about Judaism from Jews as a way of gaining in wisdom means
learning as well an unaccustomed humility. If Christians can manage
such small steps, they will begin to learn what repentance truly
means."
Quotes from: Christians and Jews Starting Over.

Bertrand Russell said: "I am firmly convinced that religions do harm
as I am that they are untrue. The question of the truth of a religion
is one thing, but the question of its usefulness is another."
See; Why I Am Not A Christian
by Bertrand Russell
We can be whatever we want to be in faith, or, out of faith. But we
should be permitted to make our own choice as Russell, Einstein and
other great thinkers did after much investigation and private
thought.
I am reminded of the Thirty Year War in Europe (1618-1648) between the
Protestants and Catholics that caused so much devastation that Europe
did not recover for over one hundred years and the divisions can still
be felt.
Maybe Russell was right.
