After the non-Jewish world has spent so much of the last few thousand years trying to eliminate us, and after we have managed to endure all of that, Christians still don't understand why we might not want to meet them on their terms, when their terms include accepting that they want the culture that sustained us and that we fight daily to sustain in turn to vanish from this earth. And then they call us bigoted when the idea is unpalatable to us.
And the thing is, there are plenty of Christians who are not that way, who don't see any reason they should try to make all the non-Christians believe as they do, but the ones who are that way are just so much louder than the ones who aren't.
And none of them seem to realize that when they talk about converting the Jews, we remember what happened the other times they talked about just that.
