1. Many of them seem to believe they, not the Jews, are the "chosen people"

of the old testament. They seem to think that the entire thing was written for the US "christians" but only their specific type of "christians", not for the Hebrews.
Delusional, magical thinking.

They love the parts of the bible they agree with, but the parts they don't like so well, they ignore completely.

3. If you can figure them out and give the rest of us an answer...
I'll (personally) consider one of the greatest questions, of all time, of psychology overcome.

4. I think it's very simple. They never grow up.
They're stuck in the American teenage phase. I have a teenager at home, so I recognize it. They don't want to be told what to do, but they want to tell everybody else what to do. Life is never "fair" to them, they always think they are the victims. All the religious stuff is just rationalization for their selfishness.
