What's with all the Confusion?

I have been checking this section out to learn more information about the Jewish portion of my heritage. My mom is Jewish and I do know a lot about my heritage but I am always interested in learning more.

I was extremely disappointed to find though that a lot of the postings on here get inundated with replies that honestly look like they belong in the Christianity section.

Why cant we respect other peoples beliefs instead of challenging them?

Why cant we just try and learn something from someone who may have more knowledge on a subject that we do, instead of trying to convert them?

I wish that every discussion didn't have to be a Jewish person defending their faith to a Christian.

Just to clarify:

Jews do not believe in Hell
Jews do not believe that Jesus was the Son of God
Jews do not incorporate the New Testament into their teachings.

Am I wrong?

I feel like the discussions would be a lot more interesting if it didn't feel like an argument about whose religion is "better"



Peace and Love to you all and I hope we have many enlightening and engaging discussions in the future
