When I was living in the US, I did come across people who held strongly to the notion that the #Jews are specially chosen by #God. And, apparently, this choosing had nothing to do with their merit or personal qualities.🙂

Before I met those people, I must have already known thousands of people superior to those Jews - physically, emotionally, spiritually, intellectually - and, so, that notion seemed ludicrous then, and it is, of course, all the more stupid now.

God made a bad decision, evidently.

This whole idea of God choosing Abraham, and then choosing Isaac - what basis, in reality, does it have?

The God of the Bible, I noticed very early on, knows nothing about many other great civilizations. Furthermore, he stays frustrated with his own people most of the time.

Every now and then he picks someone like Saul or David. How? By means of a prophet like Samuel or Nathan.

And what becomes of Saul or David in relation to this God? 😊

Thank goodness, these are myths much like the news of today.

A simple question to ask of #Jesus would be:

Where were you when work was being done in Wuhan for gain-of-function research? You could have stopped the work there, and of course, you could have stopped the leak from the lab. But you didn't. Why?

You didn't because:

You couldn't
You weren't interested
You wanted the leak to happen
You don't have jurisdiction in China
You don't exist in the first place

What other possibilities can we think of... #Jesus?

To make a long story short: Any way I see it, I don't see something special in the Jews - as individuals, or as a group.

They are just a group of people with some strange beliefs if they hold on to those beliefs with some seriousness. There are many groups with strange beliefs.

Conclusion: #Jews, you are not special.🙂
