Replacement theology. Using the basis of an older religion to build a new one, saying that it is the fulfillment of prophecies of the elder, adding a new text to reinforce and extend the claim.

Oh the irony... this is what Christianity does to Judaism.. ...Replacement theology. Using the basis of an older religion to build a new one, saying that it is the fulfillment of prophecies of the elder, adding a new text to reinforce and extend the claim.

Makes sense to me if not in those same words.  

I'm curious-- you're aware that your monitor is supposed to have a flame retardant lining before you make a comment like that in a thread like this?

Not quite. "Replacement Theology" is the literal "replacing" of Israel with the Church.

The Bible teaches no such thing. Replacement Theology is gross heresy.
