	Sure do; pointed it out once before. Your explanation also makes clear
why Identity can't tolerate Judaism - can't have rival claimants around for
the title of God's Chosen People, especially when their claim is stronger than
yours! I think Oded must be right - Identity Christianity is too silly a
notion to be anything but a misbegotten plot of the KGB's to sow dissent in
the West. But they certainly must have a low opinion of our intelligence, to
think we would be beguiled by anything so ludicrous.

	Mr. Black, if you want to be a Jew that badly, it is possible. You'll
have to study a great deal, and to get over your attitude problem, but
conversions are allowed.

	Well, I knew Jews had financed a great part of the American
Revolution, but I didn't know they were the primary architects of our system
of government - is that what you're trying to say? Does this have something to
do with your preference for the Articles of Confederation over the
Constitution, or did I get that confused, too? Have you ever considered how
much more effective a spokesman you could be for your beliefs if you acquired
an education?

	Take heart, Don. I doubt most of us think of you as an honest-to-gawd
Nazi; we just suspect your brain has been supersaturated with Vitalis.
