When did I ever say I did not like Gentiles?

When you said spending an eternity with them is your idea of Hell!


Just because someone bores me does not mean I dislike them.

I can stand the company of Gentiles for limited intervals, but not eternity.

Oh okay. It seems a little strange that you've pigeon holed a massive part of the human race as boring, but if that's how you honestly feel, I can't argue with you about it.

Try being Jewish for 74 years. Then you will understand.

Since we're both Jewish atheists and I'm 84 years old I still find it strange. Of course you've got to be selective, (I've met some pretty dumb Jews) but gentiles can be a rather lively bunch too. I get along fine with Muslims too.
