Jews: "We're Still Here"

I just finished watching 'God on Trial' (available here: http://www.youtube.com/profile_play_list?user=godontrail). A commentor below the video repeated the line that, I'm sure, many Jews say when they reflect on god:

We're still here.


This angers me just as it should anger Jews. The ancestors of the Jews had to endure multiple humiliations, tortures, rapes, dehumanizations and murders just so that today's Jews could proudly say, "We're still here"? This is appalling!

How dare they stand on the victims of their past and declare themselves 'special' and 'favoured'? How dare they suggest what their ancestors went through was a sacrifice for them now? These innocents did not choose their fate.

No. This is a great 'evil'. Their religion has poisoned their minds and blinded them. The proper response is to abandon their god and fight to prevent the injustices of the past. To join forces with the rest of us who want to cast away and banish the Abrahamic god from our lives - forever.
