The tiring thing is we have been over all of this but our education system has failed us. The foundation of our country is Judaeo-Christian and as Kierkegard said there is no freedom without law
Amen. Creature can't escape the rules of the Creator.
Amen!
No its just Christian. Nothing Judeo about it
Christianity is Judeo. Read the book again.
America wasnt founded for jews. It was founded for Christians
It was founded for all who will MAGA.
Nonsense.
Well if you want to get technical, it was founded by Christians who were persecuted by other Christians and recognized the importance of religious freedom
I do remember something about the synagogue of Satan
Yes! There are no more Jews- only the synagogue of Satan.
Not true. We get our moral compass from Jesus and the New Testament not the Old Testament (Torah) and Moses. In Jesus' time, the jews did not agree with what he said, and he changed many of the laws and punishments for sins and crimes. (Abolishment of Kosher, Abolishment of stoning, Mixed cloths allowed, sacrifices etc.) Perhaps, the Jews and Christians have similar values now, but that would mean that the Jews adopted Christian values not the other way around.
Matthew 5:17 “Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.”
ever heard of the 10 commandments?
You are missing the picture of what people mean when they say Judeo/ Christian values. There are a few mistakes you are making.
You are focusing on the differences between Christianity and Judaism, without looking at the bigger picture of the world and society that predated Judaism. Yes their are differences between Judaism and Christianity, but they are a world away from society that predated them, and have influenced civilization so heavily, that you have a hard time picturing a society without them.
In Judaism, there is a difference between commandments given to Jews, and Jewish values that are considered fundamental to all of society.
In the Jewish belief, a non-Jew, can be a righteous person even without adhering to all of the commandments. Those additional commandments were not about morality, and where only intended for Jews to adhere to.
The examples you cited, Kosher, Mixed Clothes were never required of society at large. Stoning, is a punishment, not a commandment (not unlike the death penalty), it was only meant to be used during the time of the temple, and even then, very sparingly (based on different interpretations in the Talmud, it averaged either once every 7 years, or once every 70 years).
To summarize, their is a significant difference (at least in Judaism), between the commandments given to the Jewish People, and the moral values of the religion

Actually it is just Christian.
