    Your ignorance is showing

    Jesus Christ was a Jew. An evangelical christian, like Sarah Palin, has nothing but love for Gods chosen people. It's called dispensationalism. The Jewish history is our history. From the earliest moment of comprehension, we've been told the stories of Adam and Noah and Devorah and King David, Moses and Joshua, Balaams talking donkey, Naomi and Ruth and Solomon. We know the twelve tribes.

    HaShem loves his people. I don't try to figure out the whole John 3:16 thing as applied to the Jewish people (it's above my pay grade), suffice to say, God has His purpose.

    The Jewish people could not have a better friend or stronger supporter than Sarah Palin.
