3/4 of the Christian Bible is the Tanakh, and our prophet was Jewish. But, sure, there's no such thing as “Judeo-Christian”.https://twitter.com/TheRaDR/status/968858393191514112 …

Given how little a role Jewish theology plays in Christian theology, I think the complain is quite on point. I'm not sure Jews would even recognize Christianity as monotheistic, if they weren't being charitable.

Trinity Forgiveness of sin through a person Original sin Baptism Resurrection Judgement What am I missing? Which of those are Jewish? I'll grant you the Jewish idea of an afterlife is not TOO dissimilar, in some views, from the Christian one, so there's a point in your favor.

I'll give you creation, and partial credit for afterlife. "Stewardship over nature" is pretty weak theology. The concepts of sin and atonement are pretty universal; I'm not convinced that they're especially similar in Judaism and Christianity, nor especially different in others.

Honestly, now that I've read more, the linkage between Jewish Messiah and Resurrection -> Jesus and the Resurrection is the strongest counterargument to my claim that there's little in common theologically speaking between the two religions.
