So circumcision is torturing children? Is slapping a newborn on the back to get the fluid out of it's lungs torture too? Your argument reeks of desperation to find fault in God.
There was nothing boiler plate about it. I answered you from the heart and included scriptures that clarify your obvious misunderstanding regarding who God's "chosen" people are.
It's those who would put their faith in Christ.
And good luck finding a church that teaches that obvious truth from the Bible. It's anything but boiler plate.
Clearly you wasted those 50 years learning some fake image of God based on the religion of men rather than actually knowing the Bible.
Now here at the end you reject the only hope you had because you were too lazy to know Him when you had the chance.
Your objections betray an utter lack of Biblical knowledge and reliance on false teachers telling you what it means.
If you had made the effort to “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” You would know that the “chosen” and “predestined” aren’t any ethnic group or bloodline but those who would choose to believe God, as Abraham did.
3 For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness.
4 Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.
5 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.
And
22 Then said the Jews, Will he kill himself? because he saith, Whither I go, ye cannot come.
23 And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world.
24 I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.
...
39 They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith unto them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham.
40 But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham.
41 Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We be not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God.
42 Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me.
43 Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word.
44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
45 And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.

Nay but, O man, who art thou that repliest against God? Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hast thou made me thus?
Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.

Why are you sending your kids to public school?
Do you think that will end well for them?

Apply for whatever crap job doesn't require being vaxxed and rent the cheapest room you can find.
Find a nearby independent fundamental Baptist church and focus on God and he'll take care of your needs.
Be prepared to forgive the bulk of them for being wrong about some big things. Build relationships and inform the ones you can.
