If your religion was telling you to cheer for evil would you question your religion?

Take the war in the Middle East. Israel is an apartheid state, committing genocide and wants and expanded war. That is pure evil. Yet here in North America we are told by our religion that Israel is God's chosen people. If they are God's chosen then why are they committing such evil and on what basis do we decide who is God's chosen?

@BlueSkyKing And science gives the evildoers the airplanes. 9/11 was not a religious act. It was a political one that GWB used politically to increase the power of the state and demonise a whole swath of people.

@hippyjoe1955 Yes, it was a religious act and science is and always has been absolutely neutral. The major atheist bestselling books came out over twenty years ago. These authors wrote them because of 9/11. Has there been any real newer books past decade or so?

@BlueSkyKing No it was a CIA operation. No religion involved. Ever wonder how they were able to find passports after the fire that brought down the towers. How did they hit two towers and bring down three?

Are you confusing the Israeli government with God's chosen people???
If you are referring to Christianity I am a Christian and it's not any part of our religion that we have to support the government of Israel.
In our current US political system they tend to frame it that way for their own reasons but it's not actually true.

@hippyjoe1955 Gross oversimplification sprinkled with false info.

@REMsleep try reading the new testament. True Israel is Christian. Jews remain Jews and are not part of true Israel.

I have no Religion. All religions is part of this world for Satan waiting to form them into one, when it comes to one world Government and religion. I would hate this world with a passion, since humans without Christ would be scraping for life in the end. That's what the flesh does. sad.

@FreestyleArt you are ery religiously denying you have a religion. Atheism is a religion that killed millions of people who wouldn't bow to the atheist religion.
