Well, a few things about what you wrote:

I wasn’t replying on that issue you mention. It was a matter of logic and honest communication. The question which the original poster asked was which corporate “Christian” groups...?, and Mrs. Don-o included Jewish ones as if they were, without qualification, and then when corrected on it, denied her mistake. It was only the last part, the denial of her mistake, that I was responding to.

But on the relationship between Christianity and Judaism, there is one, of course, but Jewish denominations that deny Jesus was and is the Messiah and still await one aren’t Christian.

Then on religions besides Judaism, they are so much based on falsehood that while political cooperation might be in order in limited areas, giving them platforms to espouse their beliefs wouldn’t be advancing the kingdom of God. Is Islam approved of God because it also opposes homosexual acts?

Jews aren't Christians. I think we all know that.

I referred to Jewish groups amongst other examples of faith communities which have varying takes on homosexuality. My overall point is that there's a key difference between groups which overtly accept/espouse homosexuality, and groups which explicitly reject it. The latter may have sinners and offenders in their ranks, but they are not exemplars of their faith group: rather the contrary.

To anyone who got confused and mistakenly thought I was claiming that Jews are counted amongst the Christian fold: I didn't expect that level of incomprehension, but I hope that's all cleared up now.
