As a Christian myself I find it ironic that many Evangelical Christians, particularly in the United States, have this overwhelmingly negative view of Islam while at the same time have an overwhelmingly positive view of Judaism considering what both religions believe about Jesus.
In Islam, they...
i am an Israeli atheist, i don't consider my self a Jew, so obviously i consider Judaism just a another stupid made up fairy-tale.

I have seen a lot of Jewish people with tattoos and body piercings but always heard that the this isn’t really approved of in Judaism but is this really true and if so why would so many people defy their religion by doing it?
Just curious, I am a Christian.. I do believe that Israel is a God's choosen nation. but I heard Judaism doesnt believe that Jesus is the Christ. NOW I have two questions to Judaism people.

Sarcastic remarks are not intelligent or wanted. Are Jews and Muslims a race of people? How are they and why are Christians not if that is the case?

I know in Biblical days, angels were often mentioned, but does modern-day Judaism still hold that angels exist, and what do they say angels do? Are they messengers or guardians?
So which sect of Judaism have the Ancient Hebrews followed?
Karaite Jews seem to be Righteous in following the ways of the Tanakh, in my interpretation of the scripture.
Deuteronomy 4-2:

Ok, first Christianity
The religion itself says you can go to heaven if you give yourself to Jesus Christ

My wife has not bore me any children yet. I love her, but she has no interest in becoming Jewish and it has been calling to me for some time. She said she would stay if I convert, but I don't know if it is allowed.
Well, I've always been interested in witchcraft, but I'm afraid I might be venturing to far away from my Jewish religion. Any of you have any input on this? Please, no bible verses. I could never comprehend those.
Take into consideration that I am not a full-on orthodox Jew. I'm not kosher and I...
I'm having the hardest time finding similarities between the two religions on death and dying rituals other than that both religions strive to bury their dead as soon as possible, both religions possess strict mourning rules, and I need one more similiarity! It'd be awesome if someone could help...
Is Judaism considered (in your opinion) a community of faith, or a tribe of related individuals? I already have my opinion that's it's a community of faith. My girl-friend I know is an atheist, and doesn't keep kosher, but she goes to my Jewish school and goes to the prayer service still, and is...
