The same way you let Christians decide what is the meaning of Christianity and the Bible, and how it should be applied?
That would be nice.
Although I'm sympathetic to the situation, life isn't freakin Burger King, you don't get it any way you want it.

Oh, and all Jewish people agree on the meaning of the Torah? Or haven't you noticed how many Jewish sects are out there?I don't apply Christianity to anything. And the Christians can't even agree on the meaning of the Bible, or haven't you noticed how many Christian denominations are out there?
Seriously? What is it about Christianity that makes non-Christians overly critical and makes them think they are such experts on other people's beliefs and the Bible?But seriously, what is it about Christianity that makes people overly defensive and makes them think that everything is about them?

Same for Muslims and the Koran, and their sects.

I don't think everything is about Christians but I have noticed an increase in the critical posts about Christians and the Bible. Maybe it goes with the Christmas season.
Yes, I know that. I was trying to make a parallel. I should have used Torah instead of Bible. The point is, they aren't in agreement with interpretation and application of the Torah either.The Jewish people use the Torah.
So? They aren't as many in world population either. They are still more than one, right?And there are not nearly as many Jewish sects as there are protestant denominations.
That's their official website. Do you disagree with it?Are you interested in learning about the Nation of Islam? I believe I offered to refer you to some excellent books if you are. And it is Q'uran.

There are several accepted spellings.
Quran or Koran? *|*American Journalism Review
You brought up Nation of Islam specifically. What exactly is your point about Nation of Islam relative to Muslims?
If you know of another definition which does not associate Zionism with a Jewish State in Palestine, I'd love to hear it.
I'm not saying this is a bad thing, it's not different than any other group of people wanting their own country, but I don't see how you can separate it from Zionism as they are the same thing as far as I can tell.
Oh, and you might want to call all these sources and tell them that they are wrong.
the source is correct but it is you who understand it wrong.OK, I'd like to know the definition because this is how I understand it:
From Wikipedia:
Zionism (Hebrew: ציונות, Tsiyonut) is a Jewish political movement that, in its broadest sense, has supported the self-determination of the Jewish people in a sovereign Jewish national homeland. (for those that don't know that would be Israel)
From the Jewish Virtual Library:
Zionism, the national movement for the return of the Jewish people to their homeland and the resumption of Jewish sovereignty in the Land of Israel
From the free dictionary:
A Jewish movement that arose in the late 19th century in response to growing anti-Semitism and sought to reestablish a Jewish homeland in Palestine.
From the Zionism Month Web:
Zionism as ideology - Zionist ideology holds that the Jews are a people or nation like any other, and should gather together in a single homeland.
From Websters Dictionary:
an international movement originally for the establishment of a Jewish national or religious community in Palestine and later for the support of modern Israel
If you know of another definition which does not associate Zionism with a Jewish State in Palestine, I'd love to hear it.
