Christianity largely sees Judaism is obsolete. That's kind of it's point. No I don't think so. The old covenants, (Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, et. al.) are still in effect. God does not renege on contracts. However, the new and ever-lasting Christian covenant applies to all Christians and to Jews that will finally believe in Christ. As it says in the Zechariah chapter 11...they will look on him whom they have pierced and weep as a parent that has lost an only son...etc.

A lot of those laws are ridiculous, I refuse to follow them.

And Moses? The point is, 'Christianity' has a LONGGG history of declaring the Torah of Moses as obsolete. Granted, the original First Century ones did not, but the certainly did from the Second Century on.
