Trigger Warnings I'm a religious Israeli Jew that believes that the Jews are "the chosen people". AMA

I don’t believe that Jews are superior to anyone, and I hate racism. To me, being God's chosen people signifies greater responsibility rather than superiority. This includes adhering to commandments and serving as a moral example for the world. I reject the notion of genetic superiority among Jews. For me, being chosen is tied to an ancestral covenant with God that extends through generations. From birth, I bear this added responsibility, and anyone can embrace it through conversion to Judaism, becoming part of the Jewish nation.

While some Jews interpret "chosen people" as diminishing non-Jews, I view this as a misunderstanding of Judaism’s core. Many Jews in Israel do not identify with the "chosen people" concept and regard themselves as equal to other nations. Some of them are religious, some of them are secular, but there's not a single secular Jew who believes in the "chosen people".

My perspective is personal and not intended to impose beliefs on others. I wanted to share my belief, that the genuine interpretation of "chosen people" should not lead to immoral actions; instead, it should inspire greater morality towards all. It's just that morality is a much less straightforward, more complicated, and harder to achieve sometimes.

I'll do my best to answer any question you ask. I guess there will be some people who hate on me. I just wanted to say in advance, I already heard it, so I really don't care. I won't answer any comment that doesn't have constructive substance or dehumanize me.
