I was told you could tell the fake Christians by seeing if they keep their eyes open in church during prayer.

Unfortunately, it requires keeping your own eyes open.

And where exactly is Arabia? Saudi Arabia is south Arabia so where is northern arabia, Do the Lebanese and Jordanian also belong in this Arabia and what makes Israelis Palestinians? And yet you probably want to kick out the illegal immigrants who because the come from countries in the Americas belong in America. Words work like that. Iraqis are also Arabs do you want to send them to Arabia as well, or the Kuwaiti people?

Why do the Palestinians not belong where their families have lived for centuries but a Jew can come from Russia or New York and they can belong there and if it is because they used to live there two thousand years ago why are you living in land belonging to aboriginal people?

I think this has pretty much turned into a PaOC thread.

I think that he believes that Jews belong there because that is where they lived in Biblical times and all the Arabs are the same and should live in Arabia which might be Saudi Arabia. He fails to understand that Arabs are as different from each other as whites are and we do not all live in the country White. He seems to think that the people who lived in Palestine prior 5o 1949 so just disappear from there and have no rights to remain on their land in their own homes,

If people belong where there ancestors were born, the overwhelming majority of us in the U.S. better hoof it for Europe, Asia, South America, wherever our great-greats sailed, flew or hoofed from.

So if you're Italian-American, why don't you go back to Italy? That's where you belong. If you're Cuban-American, why don't you go back to Cuba? That's where your grandmother came from, those are YOUR PEOPLE.

I have at least 8 different nationalities with a few "rumor" nationalities in there to boot. I suppose I'd need to split up body parts and send one to each nation in order to accomplish that.

Wasn't there some big push in the 19th century in the U.S. to send all the slaves "back to" Africa (even if they were born here)? The Colonization Movement, I think? Yeah, that's a logical principle.

Unless I'm misunderstanding this, it's possible I am. It's early and I haven't had my coffee yet.

Ah right. One of those...'God promised it to the Jews so they have every right to kill those that are there and steal it' types.
