QUOTE FROM Dubsvalk: "... I have the utmost respect for the Jewish people and all of Isreal... I meant no disrespect..."
I second Dubsvalk's feelings on "the utmost respect for the Jewish people."

Nevertheless, it seems like the appropriate time to hope that we (us all) would feel the same respect for ALL peoples,
(including Jews, gentiles and infidels) regardless of their national origin, religion, whether they are "saved," just "forgiven"
or just don't care. ??? I still have the utmost respect for ALL peoples.

I know one member here. As far as I can tell he's a huge white guy, very respectful, fun to share time with him.

For all I know he might be Jewish; but I know that if he was a Black man, he would be just as noble and respectful of others.
The only thing I know about us is that we own Valkyries. I don't know you in any other way. We'll probably never meet.
You might go through your life time w/o knowing how cute I really am.

Notwithstanding, I don't need to know about your sexual orientation (s), or about your religious beliefs or political preferences... etc...

I just know that as my own person I do experience utmost respect for ALL peoples.

Of course, there are less than "good" people in the world... of all races and creeds, I think you'd agree.

We all have crossed their path.

Unfortunately, at times the Dogs Whistle and triggers the impulse to paint certain group (s) of people with a broad brush.
This is a natural human trait.
To see good in everything w/o prejudice is unnatural. Thus, we reject the thought that good comes from everywhere.
I submit that if you try hard you might see it.
Whatever the demographics of those who ever caused me harm, I still reject the notion that everyone in that group is out to harm me.

Be understanding and let people know how grateful you are.”
