re: #601 Walter L. Newton

Fine, but some of the largest and strongest sects of fundies do see Israel as a way to get the Armageddon Party started, that was my point.

I like what Benjamin Netanyahu had to say on Bill Maher’s show:

“When the end of days comes, we’ll see who was right.”

I do not care the motivations of Christian fundies. Let them believe in end of days for all I care. I only care about actions. Their action in supporting Israel is something I endorse. Their actions in opposing gays I do not endorse.

Actions speak louder than words.

And besides, most Evangelicals I know suport Israel not due to End of Days philosophies, but rather a verse from Genesis:

“He who blesses you I will bless, he who curses you I will curse.” - said to Abraham

Many Christians (yes, including very right wing Christians) support Israel due to that verse - they want to be blessed!
