Fair enough, Mark. I suppose if I weren't Jewish, I'd be reluctant to criticize the way Jews remember the Holocaust.
Because I respect you, I'd be happy to hear you reframe the situation in a way that might make me reconsider. I think the dominance of the smaller number requires
some explanation.
I hope this doesn't feel argumentative. I don't think we disagree in a significant way. I admire the way you think and conduct yourself, and I pursue this issue on the chance that I might learn something about it from you. (I'd be very happy to feel better about the way we Jews collectively deal with the Holocaust.)
