I guess it's escaped both your notice that NO SUCH "IDEOLOGY" actually exists. Too bad.
There's nothing anyone can do about the aggressive ignorance of those who cherish an opportunity to sneer at their fellow human beings - which is precisely what you two are doing with your elevating your 'perceptions' above the knowledge which we've shared.
So you two go on with your hate fest: we've explained that it's a fallacy, but you insist on claiming it's the truth.
i think it was lipush that brought up ideology. me, i have no idea where the term "god's chosen people" originated, but i very sincerely doubt it it was a gentile who first used it.
what exactly am i claiming is the truth, other than that is how "the chosen people" are perceived by those of us who are unchosen people.
perhaps you and lipush should actually go back and try to read some of your posts exactly and objectively (i.e. through the eyes of a non-jew) and see how arrogant they sound. it has an aire of choseness about it.
gentiles did not write the torah....
"Now therefore, if you will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then you shall be a peculiar treasure unto me from all the peoples, for all the earth is mine" (gen:19.5)
"For you are a holy people to YHWH your God, and God has chosen you to be his treasured people from all the nations that are on the face of the earth." (deut: 14-2)
what i see is you trying to fit an ancient puzzle piece into a modern day jigsaw and it isn't quite fitting.
Me? The only 'ideology' I bought up was about Tikkun Olam. when touching the "chosen" ideology I was only responding to baseless claims. Don't put this out on me, Seal. Never I bought up the "chosen" card in any argument.
if you go back to your posts, seal, you'd see exactly what I mean.
