Pretty much shot down the whole light unto the world thing.

The irony here is the core ideal of Judaism is the tribe, emphasized by Zionism, yet a tribe to people is what a flock is to birds, a herd is to antelope, a school is to fish, a hive is to bees.

Yet somehow this makes them "Chosen."

Missed the whole, "Do unto others, as you would have them do unto you.." "Turn the other cheek."
