Reader comment on item: How Church Attendance Affects American Attitudes toward Israel
in response to reader comment: The main reason Christians support Israel
Submitted by sara (United States), Aug 19, 2014 at 22:31
So what if Christian evangelicals support Israel for proselytizing reasons, or even because some may believe that gathering all of the Jews in Israel will bring on the rapture?
As far as I'm concerned, all are entitled to their beliefs and cannot be judged for that in any way. And if their beliefs induce them to be supportive of Israel, I will take that any day over the Jews who don't.
And the more churches the merrier as they help the economy and tourism.
We can all wait agreeably together or the rapture while keeping Israel safe...
