Eh... not really. I find that Pastafarianism makes the most sense to me.

Personally I believe that in any religion you're going to find concepts or ideas that don't strike 'common sense' as coherent or understandable. This is where faith comes into play - if you believe in the concept.
In any religion or belief set you're also going to find people on varying 'levels' of their journey. Some will be very learned and able to explain their theology to you. Some will be ignorant or know next to nothing and will only be able to share with you half-formed ideas or thoughts.
If clarity and understanding of a religion is what you are looking for I suppose the best person to do the research would be yourself. Unfortunately humans are fallible and tend to make mistakes. What someone else understands perfectly might not be something they are ever able to 'perfectly' explain.
In the end I don't think Judaism or 'Jews' make any more sense than Moslems or Christians, Pagans or those who worship the Great Noodle God. It's all a matter of who you talk to and precisely how well they know their doctrine!

For sure. But I have to say that as a Jew, I find Agnosticism far more coherent and understandable than Atheism. To maintain that there is no Creator takes a lot of faith (unless you know everything that exists, which is the only logical way to rule G-d out), saying "I don't know," or even "I don't know, but I doubt it" makes more sense to me. But hey, to each his own.
Of course, I think a lot of Atheists out there are just pessimistic Agnostics and don't realize it. (:

First tell me your understanding of Christianity and your understanding of Judaism.

Yes. That is why I left Christianity and became a Jew. I was just about 12 years old when I began questioning it all.

I dont know much about Judaism, but I mean I understand Christianity just fine, it just seems absurd.

Try the course in miracles. It runs circles around both of them as a coherent view of our spiritual reality.

And who will turn away from the religion of Abraham but he who makes a fool of himself. Him did we choose in this world, and in the next he will surely be among the righteous.

Its mind boggling to read some of the questions and answers. I understand now, why the world is so sinful and in the situations its in. I think ALL PEOPLE needs to get on their knees and do some praying to the one and only God we have through Jesus Christ
