You believe in the establishment of a Jewish state in the Land of Israel, guided by religious principles and values, to fulfill divine promises and ensure the continuity of Jewish culture and tradition.
Religious Zionism is a political ideology that combines Jewish religious faith with Zionist nationalism. It emerged in the late 19th and early 20th centuries as a response to the secular Zionist movement, which sought to establish a Jewish homeland in Palestine without necessarily adhering to traditional Jewish religious beliefs and practices. Religious Zionists, on the other hand, believe that the return of Jews to the Land of Israel is a divine commandment and a precursor to the Messianic era.
The roots of Religious Zionism can be traced back to Rabbi Yitzchak Yaacov Reines, who fou…

How would you describe the relationship between your personal sense of purpose and the political environment around you?
@9JSCQWL3mos3MO
This learning process shapes perceptions that influence which norms, behaviors, values, opinions, morals, and priorities will ultimately shape their political ideology: it is a "study of the developmental processes by which people of all ages and adolescents acquire political cognition, attitudes, and behaviors."
@9JSB3NJ3mos3MO
I feel like we are being forcefully becoming diverse but that is just me
@9JS9ZXBIndependent3mos3MO
i think that some people should be allowed to have their own political views
@ISIDEWITH2mos2MO
In what ways do you think an individual's spirituality should influence their civic engagement and political participation?
@9KY76PL2mos2MO
I think none i know in practicality it's alot harder as those values and teachings are engrained in people and this applies to all religions including Protestant religions and their values because government and religion should never mix ever
@9KY758XPeace and Freedom2mos2MO
I believe that an individual's spirituality can play a significant role in shaping their values, principles, and sense of purpose. When it comes to civic engagement and political participation, spirituality can inspire individuals to prioritize compassion, justice, and the well-being of others. It can motivate them to advocate for social equality, environmental stewardship, and the promotion of peace. However, it's important to respect diverse perspectives and ensure that personal beliefs do not infringe upon the rights and freedoms of others.
@9KY72ST2mos2MO
if they're religious is about peace they should try to maintain peace
@ISIDEWITH2mos2MO
What would you do if a historical place significant to your cultural or religious identity were at risk?
@9KY7TXD2mos2MO
The concept of "Religious Zionism" involves colonization so I think it is important that we do not kick people out of their homes just because my religion says that I should live in a certain place. We can look at this through Israel's occupation of the Gaza Strip and the horrors committed against the Palestinian people in instances such as the "Nakba" in 1948. People should have the right to escape persecutions for their religious ideas but not at the cost of others.
@9KY76MB2mos2MO
There is not much i could do since i am a child, but if i could i would try to defend it as best as possible
@9KY75G32mos2MO
I would be very concerned because why is putting my cultural or religious identity at risk

@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
What emotions do you feel when considering a homeland tied not just to place, but to faith?
@9HLT46H 5mos5MO
Creation will always be questioned and as a servant of Jesus Christ I will encourage others to seek their own truth of faith by suggesting a study in the word of God and comparing to how other aspects of existence can be explained or disproved.
@9HLS4K55mos5MO
i think claiming a homeland with a book with no actual indigenous roots gives you no claim over the actual indigenous population.
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
Do you think historical events should dictate the political landscape of today, and in what capacity?
@9HH88N75mos5MO
The only way we as humans can make good decisions for a great mass of people is by looking to our past and seeing what works.
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
Have you ever felt a spiritual connection to a place, and how did that shape your feelings about who 'belongs' there?
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
What are the benefits and risks of intertwining religion with national identity, from your perspective?
@9HTHCFCRepublican5mos5MO
Benefits would be to practice life based by your religion. Risks would be people abusing exceptions. I see both sides.
@ISIDEWITH3mos3MO
@ISIDEWITH4mos4MO
What is the significance of land to you, and how do you relate that to the rights of others who also claim a connection to the same land?
@9JPMKRH3mos3MO
Land is not appointed by a god. Land is free to be used as need be
@9JPMC7C3mos3MO
Quite simply, land is simply a place to live. A group of people only have ties to land because they have built their community or society there. Land should not be claimed simply because one’s ancient ancestors lived there. Should others be allowed to live on that land? Yes, however they do not have the right to push those already there off the land or take political control of the area.
@ISIDEWITH2mos2MO
Can you think of an example where two different belief systems coexist harmoniously, and what can we learn from it for global relations?
@ISIDEWITH2mos2MO
Where do you draw the line between cultural pride and nationalism?
@9LBD3N2Republican2mos2MO
Attacking and committing terrorist acts on other countries.
@9LBCM932mos2MO
I think they go hand in hand, so there really isn't a line per se.
@ISIDEWITH4mos4MO
Do you think personal spiritual beliefs should influence educational content in public schools, and if so, how?
@9JPLBXV3mos3MO
No. Educational content in public schools should remain secular and science based, except in the case of classes specifically teaching about religions, which should be optional.
No, because we are a country that has the right of freedom of religion so everyone should learn about all kinds of religion no matter what religious beliefs one has.
@ISIDEWITH2mos2MO
What does 'a promised land' mean to you, and could it exist today?
@9LCM8F61mo1MO
A promised land is the an idea that gives purpose to life. That in the end all is well and all will be okay if we live to our fullest potential with the best intentions. The idea of a promised land gives hope and purpose to people.
@9LCM8331mo1MO
A perfect society where everyone agrees and gets along. I don't believe it could exist today because corporations, businesses, and people lie to much to others and are too greedy for this to happen
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
Do you think a government should advocate for religious values, and why or why not?
@9HLS88GPeace and Freedom5mos5MO
I think that the government should protect our 1st amendment right to Freedom of Religion.
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
How does your cultural heritage influence your view of national identity?
@9HYGDCC4mos4MO
Religion should and culture has a huge impact on who I am.
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
If you had to advocate for a cause based on your personal beliefs, what would it be and why?
@9HP33M7Libertarian5mos5MO
reshaping the ideas of pagan cultures and having more places for them to practice openly
