Entry: Is There Conservatism Beyond Christianity? (or how to book a mental vacation in Athens or Valhalla) Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/is_there_conservatism_beyond_christianity_or_how_to_book_a_mental_vacation#23246 Post contents: Craig" Read Romans chap. 9-11. The Almighty himself will bring the Jews in. The Good Friday prayer was re-written with this part of Romans in mind. We should regard the Jews as just people on the way to joining us; any other view is repugnant to Scripture. "People on the way" is hardly grounds for "antagonism". And because Judaism is essential to understanding Christianity, then its hardly "obsolescent". By the way, it might be argued that the Catholic Faith is the <i>least</i> antagonistic to Judaism, not only because of the mutual respect for law, education, penance, Scripture AND Tradition, Magisterial authority, opposition to private judgement, and observance, but also because the Catholic Faith has preserved the priesthood, the altar, and the sacrifice. What is more, "Christ" means "messiah". "Christians" are literally the people of the Messiah and awaiting the Messiah. Jews are the people of the Messiah and awaiting the Messiah. Therefore Jews are Christians. Christianity and Judaism are the same religion. Sent at: 2008 09 05
