I don't think God chooses winners and loser

Have you ever heard of "God's chosen people" ?

i was responding here to your lack of knowledge regarding choosing winners and losers.
I refer you to
Deuteronomy 7:7-8
"The LORD set his heart on you and chose you, even though you didn't outnumber all the other people. You were the smallest of all nations.
You were chosen because the LORD loved you and kept the oath he swore to your ancestors. So he used his mighty hand to bring you out. He freed you from slavery under Pharaoh (the king of Egypt)."

Here is an instance wherein God chose the winners (Israelites) and the losers (the Pharaoh and his army). Obviously Moses required God's intervention in parting the Red Sea on behalf of the winners.

rwe, I doubt that this theological discussion advances the thread, which basically involves clara's misunderstanding of the role of natural law in American political philosophy.
