How do you view Jews?
They should not be judged based on their religion alone, but by their own individual actions.
As a religious group who thinks as a group due to their joined beliefs and/or ethnic background
If you are not a Jew, how do you think Jews view gentiles?
They scorn them.
They embrace them.
They are weary of them.
They like them.
They tolerate them, but only because they have no choice.
Are Jews justified in having Israel? The Jews possessed the land of Israel back during the time of the Holy Roman Empire, in the province of Judea. The modern state of Israel was formed over the same territory in 1948.
Yes, because that land is sacred to them.
Yes, because they need a nation which they can call their own.
Yes, because they own it and it is internationally recognized.
Yes, because they owned the land before the Palestinians.
No, because it is Palestinian territory.
No, for some other reason (tell me your reasons!)
I don't know.
Some people think that because Jews dont believe in Jesus Christ, they are doomed to eternal damnation, and the only way to "save" them is to convert them. How do you feel about this?

Judaism is...
An ethnicity.
A set of beliefs.
Something you can only be born into.
A lifestyle.
Something anyone can convert to.
How would you feel about marrying a Jew?
I have.
I dont believe in any type of intermarriage, not just with Jews.
I would if I fell in love with one. Religion dosent matter.
I wouldnt because it would be wierd... they're too different.
I wouldnt because I plan to marry someone of my own faith.

They have nothing better to do.
They have good reasons.
