Some Americans, as I am sure you know, are off their rockers. The jews were the chosen people before the coming of Christ. Christ, as a fulfillment of the OT scriptures, brings in people of all race and ethnic groups (jew and gentiles). To be a chosen person, God simply has to give you a revelation of the truth that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, who came to save the world from the grips of sin by granting grace. This, however, does not give licence to use this "chosen" status towards political correctness. Even after being chosen by God and being his follower, people still sin. We continually need the grace of God.

There are no chosen people. This lie has haunted humanity since Emperor Constantan adopted christianity as the official religion of the dying Roman Empire. What is happening in Middle East, the Crusade, the Roman Catholic Inquisition, the gas chamber massacre of Jews, the 911 tragedy are all fallouts of this "chosen people" self imposed malady. Humanity should put an end to this curse now or it could put an end to humanity.

America is a great place to live. So many opportunities. It is not only a blessing to have been born American, but a privilege. No one chooses where they are born. To think that because God put you in a certain place to do His work made you exceptional is silly. God's chosen ppl are the Jewish. To think differently is silly. I read my bible and it says that to those who believe that Jesus was His only begotten son shall not perish but have have eternal life. That does make me a child of God. Which, makes me special. But, I am only chosen to go to heaven. That is more than enough for me.

Beats me, but some "officially" sanctioned Christian religion came up with this great concept called "once saved always saved" no matter how dispictable you are. You can be Adloph Hilter and get to heaven, so long as you accept Jesus and God and are Baptized and saved!
And, by the way, you have to be a "good Jew" to get to heaven.
Jews, for example, who willingly go out and get tattos fall out of God's grace. Hitler's tatoos don't count, I hope. He did them exactly for that reason!
So even Jews aren't automatically saved. They gotta live good Jewish lives!

If you impress a spoilt lifestyle on a child and renforce it from an early age it sticks with them through their life

They are deluded. It is a shame really, some similar conditions require you to be sectioned in Britain.

Because they're full of themselves, no people are the "chosen people".
