Well - that certainly explains to me why there was such a large orthodox jewish turnout at the holocust-denial convention in Europe - makes total sense now

I was also of the impression that the orthodox believers have always held that the commanments tell them that the "promised land of Israel" will be delivered rather than something that had to be created??

Of course I only studied religion as part of my wanting to understand why there was so much hate and killing associated with religion when every religious "guide or book" seems to forbid these - helped me understand the sheep
