When you talk about the middos HA' RACHAMIM, are you not referring to the ABSENCE of G-D, (Nature, this World the Universe), where there is a system of exquisitely balanced PARASITIC FORCES, which will consume the body of man back into the Earth? And therefore by following the Commandments, you experience this Mercy by enabling yourself to walk that fine line between one kind of destruction and another kind of oblivion?
Didn't The Creator bring about the attribute of MERCY, because without it, using only the characteristic of strict JUSTICE, the world could not endure? One serious enough sin - could annihilate you!
Flip the word Jew to nonjew in this talk and then ask yourself, why is there antisemitism? There is no difference between Jew and nonjew except for identity. We are like a man and a woman. A man is no better than a woman and a woman no better than a man. There is no separation because God is ONE. Separation lies in the mind of the immature person who does not know God. The woman does not have a separate heaven and neither does the nonjew. God loves us both the same and in some instances, possibly the nonjew with even more favor as it is the Jew who is supposed to be the better example to all of us. 🙏
