This is drifting a tad OT but here goes.
The small amount of time I've spent within the walls of a church, and the even smaller amount of time I've spent within the walls of a church with my ears and eyes open, I've noticed that at least here the old testament is often read and examples are taken that have parallels with contemporary issues. Now, this is something I'm used to, and I don't consider it Israelism, but what is your take? The Protestant denominations are more Judaism friendly, but I think it is only logical, as they have their roots in rebellion against the religious authority that was the Catholic church, and theirs has been a cause of "religious liberation". I think its more of an alliance of convenience. There is a lot of terminology used by the Finnish Lutheran Church (mostly from the period of pre-independence to the end of the wars) that would to many of you smack of "chosenitism", but I think its only natural for such 'national churches' to focus on the people they represent.
Some posters here [not in this particular thread] seem to have hinted that protestantism is of the devil all together. As someone who is nominally protestant, this anti-Protestant attitude expressed by some Catholics is new to me. I'm not overtly concerned as I'm not a practicing Lutheran, but I am curious.
There are some clearly pro-Israel Protestant groups in Finland (such as
this one), but they are not affiliated with the Lutheran Church of Finland.
