{".....But when Jews here in the U.S. evince a distrust of these same evangelicals' proselytizing efforts, suddenly they're "anti-christian bigots"!...."}

Explain one thing to me. One can be an atheist (like Einstein), but still be considered Jewish. One can even be anti-Israel (like Chomsky), but still be considered Jewish. There are some people born to Jewish parents, and dabble in New Age religions, but are still recognized as Jews.

Why is it that Messianic Jews are uniquely singled out, and denied the right by some Jewish groups, to call themselves Jews?

Funny you should ask that. I guess it's the same way that some blacks (such as myself) are denied the right by other blacks to call ourselves true blacks.

See what I mean?

Whatever the reasoning, it's nefarious, to say the very least.
