Judeo-Christian is an oxymoron as Judeo rejected Christ and they do to this day. Is it is modern term used to usurp the Constitution, not to uphold it.

When she says “Judeo-Christian”, she is referring to the Old Testament (Torah) and the New Testament (Good News) bible.

This is to draw a distinction between Protestant Christians and the other groups who call themselves Christian (Mormons, Scientologist, Jehovah Witness, etc.) who have their own doctrine and bible.

No, it’s an accurate term given the relationship between the Old and New Testaments.

The Old Testament articulates the Covenant of the Law with Israel. The OT also contains prophecy fulfilled by Jesus, and the OT is referred to by Jesus numerous time.

The New Testament articulates the New Covenant within the repentant and forgiven Body of Christ - which is His Church.

There’s also the matter of Jesus lineage being delivered through the children of Israel.

“Judeo-Christian is an oxymoron as Judeo rejected Christ and they do to this day.”

Jesus was a Jew his entire life.
