Peter Enns Quote
We can well imagine Jews feeling a bit out of their element—maybe intimidated and shamed by their own story, which began in slavery, ended in exile, and with absolutely zero contributions to philosophy or science. Some ‘chosen people’! What kind of God did you say you follow? Apparently one who lets bad things happen to you.
