    Google is my friend but google does not tell us if you think Jews are the chosen people. Your comment leads one to believe that is what you think.

    So you really think Jews are the chosen people? Do you want to clarify or quantify that statement in any way?

    This is common knowledge which one who actively visited the religion forums and comment on them should know. If he still doesn't Google is the way to know. I have given my opinion, the knowledge will be easy to seek with Google

    Not quite, a forum is for discussions, not as an knowledge base. If he is really keen on something he will find ways to find it.

    It is certainly not common knowledge on these forums that "Jews are the chosen people". Yes, there are people who belive that, I just didn't realize you were one of them.

    Don't you think, that regarding a certain race of people as better than everyone else is Racism? Isn't that the exact definition of Racism?

    Racism:

    Prejudice or discrimination based on an individual's race; can be expressed individually or through institutional policies or practices. ...

    If you're not a Jew you're not chosen

    IMHO chosen by God does not extend to the fact that there are better than everyone else. Have you read the Bible, Christ conversations with the Pharisees and the Gentiles?
