Great reply fren. It is to our disadvantage that some try to paint others with a very broad brush in order to promote their own beliefs and agendas. This is especially true when it concerns the Jewish people. People should not be so convinced that their own theologies are "the correct ones" and we should be very careful about the hills we plant our flags upon because in actuality we may find themselves in opposition to God. Many walk around with the idea that they somehow have a exclusive corner on the truth and everyone else is in error. I think in the end, many are going to be shocked that the banner of their own particular brand of beliefs, with which they justified persecuting others in the name of, are in fact, not right either. Anything that results in hate is coming from a wrong place to begin with and is at its core, in error.

There are many Jews, as you so eloquently stated, that are Patriots and are willing to stand alongside and die to save this country. They hold very conservative views that are not so different from the views of many conservative Christians. Dr Z was one such individual. We must learn to be fruit inspectors and be less concerned about what a person professes. We will be judged by our works and the Almighty is the judge of man - not man.

The proof is in the pudding and Dr Z proved more than once his true beliefs by how he lived. He demonstrated compassion towards his fellow man and when it came to saving lives, he did not care what a person's beliefs were and treated everyone with respect - even those that did not reciprocate that respect to him. He always said, Turn away from bad, do good, and live. He promoted consciousness of God at the center of our lives. I think if we can all agree on this, we can all learn to walk together in order to achieve the goal of making this world a better place. As long as some Patriots continue to try to separate everyone based upon some misguided tribal ideological standards, we will never defeat the beast.
