Willful ignorance, then.

You just don’t understand, do you? It’s not ignorance. They can give you scripture and verse to prove their point, they can give you a pseudo-history of how the lost tribes of Israel became white Europeans, they can show you in supportive books and manuscripts written by “theologians” over the last 200 years that prove their position.

Many of these people are far from ignorant. But, just like any religious dogma, they can be honestly convinced that they are right and the rest of the world is wrong.

You must lead a sheltered life is you don’t understand this. And I don’t mean that to be nasty, but maybe you should look into the Covenant and Identity theology, read up on two hundred years of Anglo-Israelism (or also know as British-Israelism).

Spend a few hours on the subject. You will be surprised how many of the mainstream fundamentalist sects sit on the edge of the same thoughts.
