I don't know what it's like to be a Jew, I only know what it's like to be a Christian. Judaeism are part of our tradition, Islam is not. The Old Testament is holy, the Koran is not. Christ was a Jew. We believe, as Jews believe, that the Old Testament prophesied the coming of the Messiah. The big difference is that we think he already came, and Jews are still waiting. Our religious practices are different, and our beliefs are different, but we think of ourselves as part of the same tradition. Our ethics are the same, and our morals come straight from the Ten Commandments, with a little compassion and forgiveness added, and some pagan razzle-dazzle and Mariolatry and incense and sculptures thrown in for color, to reach people's emotions. It is true that some Christians hate Jews and that some Christians persecute Jews, and that this went on for a long time. But it's also true that for most Christians, that is not the case, whatever it was in the past. Christianity is a much happier religion than Judaeism, I think. BWDIK? There is only one God, and that God is the same for us all. There is no Jewish God. There is no Christian God. There is no Islamic God. There is one God.
