And, of course, Judaism doesn't have a notion of having to be saved.That "saved" thing gets more and more dramatic, the more and more fanatical the extremists are. For example, you would not really see a typical Catholic, (or even the reputible Protestant religions) jumping into a subway train screaming, "BELIEVE AND BE SAVED!!!!". "JESUS IS COMING". We leave thatr for the extremists. That is a comical fanatic to even your most devout Catholic, etc. My first reaction is, "Isn't that nice, Jesus is coming to Union Square....so what's for lunch." I have no patience for extremists twisting my religion to some kind of freak-show, which is basically what people like that have done. |
