I'm ready to start talking about other stuff, but I just want to make this last point.
This thread got me thinking about the South Park episode, "Do The Handicapped Go To Hell?" There's a scene in the second part where a group of people are entering Hell, and one man shouts, "How can I be in Hell? I've been a devout Baptist my whole life!" The Hell tour guide tells the man, "Well, you were wrong." When the man asks who was right, the guide replies, "The Mormons. The Mormons were right."
The point is, I'm happy the way I am and I don't want to be "saved," so don't waste your breath.
I know I've said this before, but even if you think you're doing it out of some great "love" for the Jewish people, if your goal is to eventually see the end of the Jewish religion through conversions, then guess what? You're as much of an anti-Semite as Farrakhan, even if you think you just LOVE you some Jews!
You might reply, "But we just don't want you to go to Hell!"
Frankly, if it's only right-wing evangelical Christians who go to Heaven, then I'd rather go to Hell. By that definition, Heaven will be boring and depressing, while Hell will be one big kickass party. The Catholics will be there, and if anyone knows how to throw a party, it's them (see: Mardi Gras/Carnivale, St. Patrick's Day, Cinco de Mayo, Columbus Day in New York City). Other religions will be invited--the Muslims can bring some hookah and the Hindus can play their excellent bhangra music. We Jews will supply the food. I'm not exactly sure what the Buddhists' and the atheists' roles will be in all of this, but I'm open to suggestions. It'll be great though--we can all have a fun time together without the right-wing evangelicals telling us that having fun is a SI-YIN!
This statement is not meant to offend anyone. This isn't directed at Christians as a whole, just the ones who would say, "We want your religion to be eliminated and for you all to convert, but WE ARE NOT ANTI-SEMITIC!"

I Don't Want To Be Saved

I've always wished there was a way to charge people with metaphysical assult when they, upon learning you're not a Christian, try and convert you and then pray for you when they fail. It feels so violating.
