Why would an insignificant group of people (in their own estimation), surrounded by brilliant, wealthy, and powerful people all around them, eschew idolatry and have such a radically different view of reality and concept of the Divine in the first place?

AND, how is it that they are STILL HERE...?

There are many who are working diligently to "remedy" that.

An antisemitic liberal once told me that it was a miracle the Jews were still in Israel or anywhere. I agreed, which I think startled him.

And STILL managing to tick off surrounding peoples. Anti-semitism is rampant in the Mid-East, but forget that. Why is it making such a big comeback among Europeans, who really should know better after Hitler, and Leftists of all stripes?
