(I’m a weak-kneed Christian agnostic, as opposed to a Buddhist, Hindu, Muslim, Jewish, etc., agnostic.) It is probably a good thing for me that I’m not a Muslim agnostic, because then I would probably be “the late Muslim agnostic.”<BR/><BR/>I root for the Jews, I’m on Israel’s side, because I identify with their values of liberty and freedom. Then there’s the David and Goliath thing too, although now when Israel is surrounded and attacked, I always say: “Don’t those dumb Arabs ever learn?”<BR/><BR/>I see Hezbollah is celebrating victory in Lebanon. A few more “victories” like that, and Hezbollah will be a forgotten speed bump on the road to Damascus. I’m proud Hezbollah danced in Beirut ruins, while the Jews prayed in Jerusalem.<BR/><BR/>I was proud when we delegated the Soviet Union to the dust heap of history. I don’t think my two decades of Air Force service during the Cold War made the difference, but I’m proud to be on the winning side. It’s just a matter of time before the Russians realize that when the Soviets lost, Russia won.<BR/><BR/>Enough pride.

There is probably a benefit to be irrationally proud over something done by a fellow tribesman. You could go one step further and say that it is irrational to route for a sports team, like one from your city, just because you live in the city, but there is something that makes many of us feel better when our city or country wins the big game.<BR/>Lots of national and/or ethnic pride happens in the Olympics by viewers.Baconeaterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11134934827966299989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10199920.post-1158932840997536672006-09-22T09:47:00.000-04:002006-09-22T09:47:00.000-04:00I know what your saying...
