Actually your rants make me feel a whole lot more comfortable with the
revelation, at least to me, of the magnitude of diversity between Jews. There's an old joke about a ship that finds a Jew shipwrecked on a desert island. The captain comes ashore and sees that there are two buildings, and asks the Jew what the first building is.  The Jew says "That's my synagogue."  So they ask what the second building is, and the Jew says "That's the synagogue I don't go to."   As I believe I've said before, anybody who thinks there's enough agreement between the Jews (or even any TWO Jews) to take over the world, much less agree on what to do with it afterwards,  is wildly deluded.
I begin to realize that Jews are just as crazy and whacked as many of
the Christians that I know.  Whaddaya mean? You're nowhere near as nuts as we are.
I know good people who are Christians and Jews, but I tend only to
recognize the whacko deviants in the religious base that I am closest to.
Most of the Jews that I know are not practicing... same with the
Catholics... so it is often difficult for me to get a good reading on
core beliefs.  Our core belief is that, if I may paraphrase, people should be nice.  And God says so.
I tend to avoid discussing any religion that I do not understand the
workings of and with your rantings you make it easier for me to relate.
I'd say that your rantings go a long ways towards opening up tolerance. In that case, maybe I should rant MORE....Please keep ranting. Well, if you insist....

So I heard this guy on C-Span explaining how the protestant Ronald
Reagan thought God had saved him from his near assassination for him to
complete a mission of destoying the Soviet Empire and that the Pope told
him it was so as well as Mother Teresa. I wonder what God says to Dubya? I think we're all seeing what God tells Dubya.  Or maybe what we see is what Cheney tells Dubya, if we can believe Bob Woodward on 60 Minutes last night.
