Subject: RE: BS: GB and the Rise of Christian Fascism..
People like that are fairly common. Except for the obviously anti-Semitic ones. Most of the hardcore Christians I know believe that Jews are "God's chosen people" and since, in their belief, the Christian religion was an outgrowth of the Jewish religion, they (the Christians) regard themselves as "God's chosen" by extension. I have a few of them in my family, and we don't come originally from that sort of religious mindset. Of the ones who are that way, they became that way well into their adulthood. They consider themselves "born again evangelical Christians" I don't know about Dr. Laura though. She's Jewish. Are there evangelistic Jews?
