What's the whole rational behind the "Jewish State" being in Palestine (where they hadn't lived in 1800 years) instead of Madegascar or Florida or somewhere in Siberia (all of which were proposed at various times).
Oh, that's right. God "promised" them Palestine. He was just letting the Palestinians keep it warm for them for the last 1800 years.
Why are atheist such miserable people? I'm not sure if they are atheist because they are miserable, or miserable because they are atheists,
Guy, it's not that we are "miserable". Miserable is being horribly upset that someone might not be bowing down before your sky pixie or having sex you don't approve of. That describes theists to a tee...
The stupidity is that you were really doing the Jewish folks who had survived Hitler any great favor by putting them in the middle of 100 million Arabs determined to kill them.
And some of them thought this was a dandy idea, because, hey, God would want it that way.
The same God who apparently couldn't make Hitler choke on a Chicken bone.
