In one confused thought you declare you follow a religion given to Moses 
yet go on to say he is rascist.  And by declaring his words to be 
rascist, you are declaring God to be rascist as a prophet simply 
declares God's message, does he not?

Moses' own words (inspired by God Himself):

Deuteronomy 7:6 For you are a people holy to the LORD your God. The LORD 
your God has chosen you out of all the peoples on the face of the earth 
to be his people, his treasured possession.

So Moses himself declared the Jews to be an elect people.  You do 
realise that elect simply means "chosen for God's purpose" - there is no 
suggestion of superiority that you imply when you say it's rascist.  You 
are right when you say that purpose is to pass the message on to the 
peoples of the world.

So if you think you side with Moses, behold!  Moses witnesses against you!

There is no reform here, just corruption.  If you want to be set free, 
study Moses books more carefully.  You'll find they point to a saviour, 
the Lord Jesus who can forgive you of all your sins.

Signed, the worst sinner, forgiven.
