2nd Timothy 3:16
All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
Only Christ is good for salvation.

Not all. I believe pagans predated Judaism.
But the three Abrahamic religions are Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Sadly, I do not recall how Abraham figures into the teachings of Islam as the expulsion of his concubine Hagar was well before the existence of Mohammed.
Jesus was a nice Jewish boy who shook up the religious hierarchies, and the political system, and was sent up on a bogus death penalty rap. Those who claim to follow his teachings are considered Christian, even though he was a Jew to the death and they seem to be listening more to Paul than to Jesus.

No. Not true. Only Christian came from Judaism, and Islam has the same God but they believe they are right and the Jews are wrong about what God desires and who God's people are. There are a lot of denominations of Christianity, but all the other religions of the world have nothing to do with Judaism.

No. It is the beginning of the Law of Moses, and the foretelling of the Christ (Messiah). The Law of Moses showed that there was no one who could avoid breaking the Law. Until Jesus came no one was capable. Jesus came and fulfilled the Law, making a way for others to follow; not that they would not break the Law, but that they would be in God's favor because they trusted God.
Christianity sprang from that new relationship that covered anyone who believed it, Jew or not.
Islam sprang from a man who claimed that he knew the truth. And he actually bastardized both the Old and New Testaments. Islam is just a wanna be Abrahamic religion.

No, not true.
This myth probably comes from the fact that that Judaism, together with Christianity and Islam are "Abrahamic" religions, meaning their origins can be traced back to Abraham. Judaism, of course, continued thorugh Abraham's son Isaac. Muslim descend from his son Ishmael and Christians, descend from Esav (or Esau), Isaac's son.
However, there are many other faiths and religions that don't come from Judaism but have different origins.

No.
Some Christians believe that the world's religions are flawed copies of a single Truth, and that in the Judeo-Christian tradition we are reconciled to that Truth. Maybe that's what the people you heard were talking about?

Jesus was a Jew cupcake. :)
Yes Islam, Judiasm and Christianity come from the same base. It can be argued that Judiasm is heavily based and borrowed on Sumerian Paganism and Christianity borrowed heavily from Roman. *shrugs* That depends on how far outside the Bible Box you are willing to step and learn though.

Christianity and Islam came from Judaism, they're known as the three Judeo-Christian faiths. All other religions developed separately.

Kind of, all western religions came from Judaism. ie, Christianity and Islam both are offshoots of the original Hebrew Faith.

No. Religions often develop separately and uninfluenced by one another. This isn't so true anymore because modern technology has made different cultures no longer isolated from one another.
