    Should Christians love Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza and be concerned about their salvation as much Christians love and are concerned about the Jews in Israel?

    I didn't vote. Is this in reference to the Road Map or establishment of a separate Palestinian state in the state of Israel, or is this just a general purpose questionnaire about salvation ?

    If it's about salvation, then I would vote yes, equally.

    If it's a trick question & you really mean (about the Road Map), then my answer would be a different one.

    To equate concern for salvation as being relevant to the Road Map is mixing apples & oranges, if that is your point here.

    I honestly don't know any Christian who would feel one person ethnic group's salvation would be more important than another group's especially in light of the Great Commission.

    Though I could see where this poll might be posted in the Calvinism or other religions forum. :eek:

    Jesus' parable of the Good Samaritan makes it clear that God's love knows no nationality or religious affiliation.
