I'm interested as to why you think Judaism and Christianity are mutually exclusive, other than of course the obvious, i.e. the divinity of Jesus Christ.

Try not to take what I'm going to say as rude.

Without the divinity of Christ, there is no Christianity. The law and moral teaching of Christianity is secondary to who Christ is and that He died for remission of our sins. Being a good moral person is not the central tenet of Christianity. It's the divinity of Christ. Without that, Christianity is nothing more than Judaism by a different name. If you think that raising children in Christianity only means teaching them good morals, then you're missing the point entirely. Christianity without a divine Christ would just be Judaism by a different name. They would be better off raising the children Jewish straight-up than offering that kind of confused teaching.

Sorry for being repetitious and hard to read in my post 51. I tend to make dumb mistakes like that this early in the morning.

PIMF.
