Two points:

-Marcion is usually regarded as a heretic, and Masonic & New Age theology borrow heavily from him. He's not exactly a reputable authority.

-The Palestinians have a lot of Abrahamic genes, & many are descendants of the Jewish people. The rest of the bloodline, & the that of the Arabs, is from Abraham via Ishmael & the Keturahites (genealogy in Judges, I think). God promises both Hagar and Abraham that Ishmael will become a great nation. The Israelis can't exterminate them, since God's covenant cannot fail.

Can you address the substance of the argument instead of dismissing it? I've read Judiasim's Strange Gods. I do not understand how you fail to see the clear parallels of the OT with the Talmud. The Talmud is the logical outgrowth of the OT. The NT is a radical departure. Do you deny that Yahweah commissions genocide? Yes or no? Is genocide right or wrong?
