On this we entirely agree. And some ground is Holy, and some is not. Why does God want the seed of Abraham (whether He intended Isaac or Ismael) to revere certain ground as Holy? Is the rest of the ground not God's? Are the rest of the people not God's? Is there no other Holy place in all the vast universe? Apparently, not! :-)

It is of course just coincidence that the human race having sprung out of geographical dissimilarities and expressing different racial and tribal characteristics, and self interests, should have Gods who expressly favour their tribal group--rather they be a huge united tribal coalition or a little group of Chickasaws.
