The Final Solution to the "Chosen People" Question

by the Bray of Fundie

The "Chosen People." A concept that, at minimum, smacks of cliquishness and low-level xenophobia and that if taken to its logical conclusion is nearly indistinguishable from the concept of "the Master Race."

The Question: How does a 21st Century Jew living 70 plus years after the Holocaust, especially in the post-colonial, post-nationalist West, come to terms with the concept of the Chosen People?

The Solution: Easy. The Jews are NOT a People at all; hence it is preposterous to speak about a Chosen People.
