Most Christian rituals have pagan, not Jewish roots.Give me a break, show me the evidence dude. The only rituals practiced in my church (and Protestant churches universally) are described in detail in the New Testament. Time an again the New Testament has been shown to be a collection of authentic first century documents--95% of which by Jesus' disciples themselves.

Baptism and the Lord's Supper were both instituted by Jews (John the Baptist and Jesus) described in detail in the New Testament following a pattern of previous Jewish rites, namely circumcision (initiation) and Passover (regular celebration of salvation). The idea that Christianity is a pagan Roman mystery cult which survived is an old tale, long ago disproven.

"Most Christian rituals have pagan, not Jewish roots."

HMMM. Somebody has been reading anti-Christian hate literature, which seeks to completely invalidate Christian theology. Very telling. How communist.

The attitude is "don't you dare compare Christianity to Judaism in any way, because it is not worthy."
