The Old City
Jerusalem, Israel
March 2019
I've wanted to go to Israel for years. But I didn't want to go on a religious tour. I don't have any interest in Jesus. However, it is very hard to find a trip to Israel that doesn't center around him. And let's face it, he is good for the tourist industry. So, for the most part, all tours honor Jesus.
So I found a tour and it seemed neutral. Our guide was Jewish. But, it turns out, he liked Jesus. He admired his teachings. So we heard a lot about Jesus.
As I traveled the country, it seemed as if everyone was stuck in this time warp of conflict amongst the three big religions: Catholic, Jewish and Muslim. No one
