Israel is different. We are the jewish nation. We are meant to be religious. We have a relgious reason to be in this land, so we should have a religious state too!


Yeah, but in the current state of the world, especially that region, do you think its wise? Im not saying that it should never happen, so dont think Im not for a religious state of israel.

so yure saying that we should give up our religous state so they wont take away our religous state.

I agree with Nathan surprised I mean, you can't force religion on people if they don't want it forced on them, but to some extent it has to be done. Is power cut off on Shabbat in Israel (eg lights, TV, computers, etc)? It should be. Driving, working in any way, etc also should be illegal. Don't want to go to shul? Fine. But at least try to be respectful of some Shabbat traditions confused

Israel must be a Jewish nation. G-d promised us Israel, it's ours. We should use it to keep Jewish traditions alive.
all that is very nice, but impossible.

there can be no true jewish state until moshiach comes.

a good point but shouldn't a Jewish state take account all branches of Judaism(ie Reform, Reconstructive...)
according to the torah, most if not all of those aren't judaism, ie, keeping the torah and mitzvos, acceptance of the 13 principles
