"What you are saying is that I cannot find eternal life unless I believe as you do. Right? Therefore as a Christian you and your beliefs are right and I as a Jew am wrong. Correct? So what you mean is that I am doomed to eternal damnation unless I accept as the truth what you do. That's what you mean right?"

Um, there is no problem, unless Christians are right. If Christians are wrong, and Christ is not the Messiah, then you are right--but the Christian beliefs should have no power to threaten you.

Christian beliefs do not threaten me in any way. We will all find out one day who is right. What does annoy me though is the Christian belief that no matter how morally a G-d fearing person one may be, if you don't accept Christ as your savior you are doomed to hell

The G-d that I worship will accept all those who are good and not abandon those who whose mortal beliefs regarding the acceptance of Christ as their savior turn out to be correct or not.

In short, your religion dooms me to eternal damnation because I am "wrong," while my religion accepts you as a good person although you are "wrong." I am not threatened by that. I do however resent and reject it though. It seems condescending and not worthy to me, IMHO.
