(21,925 posts)France has the largest Jewish population in western Europe so it wouldn't be surprising if some of the houses or apartment buildings he bicycled to didn't house Jewish families. A missionary is almost like a soldier of the religion, on an aggressive mission to convert everyone he can and is more than just a simple follower of the faith. I wonder how many religious missionaries have run for President.

Romney the Mormon may respect Israel's decision to bomb Iran but he will not respect their decision to practice their faith.
