I didn't get 'rude and pompous' until you started talking nonsense. Let's recap – you initially tried to equate religious belief with racism. That is farcical. I told you so and now you are accusing me of being unpleasant.
I'm sorry if I appear rude. However, if you're going to stick your neck out and post ill-thought out hogwash on a thread such as this, be prepared for people to pull you up and criticise your posts.

Teddy_Boy //Jews consider themselves a race as well as a religion.//
Yes that is because they decree it to be so by forming an exclusive club. IIndeed they have several common congenital problems because they are so inbred.)
However they are an exception where race and religion coincide. In general race and religion are two completely different things and I know of no other similar combination.
It is very convenient for the Jews who play the antisemitism card for all and any criticism of their religion and bring up the Nazi Holocuast whenever anyone criticises their beliefs.
One of the great ironies of the Holocaust is the fact that their most holy of stories regards the genocidal massace of over thirty tribes conducted by their ancestors as they, "The Chosen Race" invaded "The Promised Land". The parallels to Hitlers master Race and Fatherland are undeniable.
While (unlike their own beliefs) I do not hold anyone responsible for the "sins of the father" I certainly find it repulsive that they continue to retell the story as the justification of their persistent and illegal invasion of the territories surrounding their internationally agreed borders.
I might take an interest in their plight when they abandon the teaching of their wreched philosophy but I don't envisage that happening in my lifetime.
I have nothing agains the Jews as people but I insist on my right to openly and vehermently criticise their beliefs. Those who would label me an antisemitic racist are wrong.

Birdie, It was an incident that happened about 12 years ago when I was driving home from work.
As someone has previously asked me about my state of mind at the time.. It was a normal work day with the normal things in my head etc.
Please accept my appologies for my rubbish spelling though :)
As I turned the corner into my road I can say only that I drove through either god or an angel. I tend to believe that it was a winky brain moment but....
For five seconds I physicaly, emotionaly and, dare I say it, intelectualy felt the pressence of 'god'. For those five second I had utterly, utterly, utterly no doubt that god was with me. I felt such joy and happiness that he was with me that I burst into heartfelt and (literaly) unstoppable haleluhlha(?) I would have, in those five second, gladly and instantly given up my life to be with god for eternity.
If a believer were to experience this I can understand how they could/would/should become a fanatic.
I was an atheist before this and remain one still. I have a few reasons but by far the top one was the realisation that if that truely was 'God's influence' then he has lost the plot. All he would need to do to get total obedience, love, admiration etc etc etc would be to 'show' himself to the whole of humanity (probably at the same time to save arguments lol) as he did to me. Why me? Why five seconds? why not the whole world population? and why not for longer than five seconds? Because he doesn't exist and it was a winky brain moment.
