text: what do you think of this christian infomercial? not too long ago, i was flipping through channels on my tv. i came across an infomercial on one of the religious channels which stated that christians would be fulfilling biblical prophecy if they paid for a russian or ethiopian jew to immigrate to israel. don't get me wrong. i know that the russian and ethiopian jews have it rough, so i don't blame them for wanting to go to israel. however, the christians weren't being encouraged to help them for altruistic reasons. i remember a christian woman on the infomercial saying something like, "the bible says that anyone who helps israel will be blessed, and i want to be blessed." and remember, they want to help fulfill biblical prophecy! whatever happened to helping people just for the sake of helping them? and why do i doubt that the same people who would donate money to this program would be likely to join a group like, say, amnesty international? i think that this infomercial is very offencive
