Chosen people
Throughout history, various groups of people have considered themselves to be
chosen people by a
deity for a purpose, such as to act as the deity's agent on earth. In
monotheistic faiths, like
Abrahamic religions, references to
God are used in constructs such as "God's Chosen People".
Anthropologists commonly regard these claims as a form of
ethnocentrism, and many religious authorities disagree.
