I will try to address some of your other questions, but this was your response to whether you felt being chosen. Why do you feel chosen if you don't believe in G_d? "[b]To be honest, I do[/b]. I didn't have that clarity growing up when I was in Saturday or Sunday school and in Hebrew school. As I've matured, I view religion a bit differently. I don't walk around entitled." [/quote]

That quote was not me.

However like many people of all faith traditions, I do sometimes doubt.   When I doubt the existence of G-d, I ALSO doubt the chosenness of the Jewish people.  I am not sure the PP meant to say he was atheist (quite different from saying one views G-d differently or less clearly than as a child) or that he did not believe in G-d, but absolutely believed in Jewish chosenness.  You are conflating people not believing in G-d but still considering themselves Jewish, with people not believing in G-d but still believing in Jewish chosenness.   [/quote]
