Writer Naomi Wolf wrote something very interesting on who the chosen people actually are, who chose them and to do what.
Was Jesus the Chosen One? The Buddha? Muhammad? Neo perhaps?
Are the Jews the Chosen People? Z!onists seem to think so. But are they actually Jews? If so... what of their (not so secret) bond with the actual nazis? Who also considered themselves to be 'the chosen people'.
Why do z!ionists disobey the ancient Jewish laws and even deny Judaism is a religion?
Who or what do you think is meant by 'The Chosen'?
Do 'the chosen' have their own land? And what if other people live there?
It really shouldn't matter where and when someone's ancestors were born. Giving someone more or less human rights based on their ancestry or their chosen religion, skin colour, etc. should be something from the past by now.
Why can't it be simple?
Anyone who considers themselves to be Jewish, Palestinian or Ukrainian is one. Same goes for 'man', 'woman' or whatever. If someone has a problem with how you like to be called, it's théir problem.
Is someone more or 'real' 'English' if not only the person self was born in England but also that person's grandparents? As opposed to someone who just received an English passport?
Maybe people could finally realise we are all descendants from the same group of ancestors, dating back some 100,000 years in what now is known as the continent of Africa. Either way, it's very interesting to read about all the different viewpoints. And mostly it's a little more than that.
Basically speculation based on thin evidence and hear say. Not to mention the hundreds or even thousands of years old stories that some consider 'fact', while often whole bits are lost in translation and over time. Guess it's why it's called 'believing' and not 'knowing'.
Several peoples have called themselves 'the chosen' but none of those can provide evidence to base that claim on.
Maybe people should give it a rest and put as much effort in living peacefully together as putting effort in denying the claims of others.
