Judaism and Catholicism were the first true religions so why........?

Question

do so MANY people have "problems" with them.

Jesus was a Jew then, had Peter start HIS church upon the Rock which, is where Catholicism started.

Answer 1

I am not sure. Perhaps they are afraid because they do not share either one of the religions.

Answer 2

Catholicism actually started to be formed a few centuries later.
Christianity was started on the rock of faith, the same kind of faith expressed in Peter's confession, with the resurrection of Jesus and the day of Pentecost.
EDIT:
Oops - missed the rest of the question.
I think people's problem with Jews is not religious but racial. And just as unjustified as any other type of racism.

Answer 3

Because of Replacement Theology. It says that the Jews are under a curse because they killed Jesus, and the Church is now the New Israel.

But this is not so, God promised the land of Israel to the Jews and has promised to save them at the end of the Great Tribulation.

Answer 4

Mostly because fundies such as yourself make stupid remarks about Chrisitanity and Judiasm being the first TRUE religions.... You cannot be more mistaken.

The very fact that there are hundreds of differing faiths PROVES that your faith cannot and is not the only true one. And beleiving so only makes you appear foolish.

Answer 5

you are only thinking of one section of the world. the rest of the world had religions of their own just not what the modern world would call religion.the ancients in other parts of the world had religions to. ~*~Blessed Be~*~

Answer 6

It's human nature for one to think he's smarter than his parents and grandparents, etc. therefore, anything 'new' has to be better than whatever is 'old'.
