I'm surprised you never went to Israel as a kid.

Blink.

You're right! I've touched the Kotel (Wailing Wall) and didn't feel anything, either because it was just some damned Jewish thing, or I was too young at the time to feel history. Completely slipped my mind.

Maybe also because the Kotel is a ruin, and that church tower is intact - which feels like it really does count for something.

Trees don't count at all, they're not human things.
