Judeo-Christian is such a bullshit made-up term to rope in multiple gullible idiots into the fold.
They basically share the Old Testament as part of their holy book. So it is not total bullshit.
It intentionally excludes Islam for purely racist reasons.
Idk about it being a racist term in general.
1st of all because Islam is a religion not a race, and we are dealing with Christianity and Judism which are also religions.
And yes, it is a term to group 2 of 3 Abrahamic religions. One that is an offshoot of the other.
Islam is different in that it rejects much of the Old Testament.
So its a term that refers to the group of people that believe the Old Testament.
Its a term. People have used it when making racist policies, but that doesn't make the word racist.
It's a term invented and popularized by racist people to make racist policies (yes even Orwell - "Shooting an Elephant" is sus af) . There is already a term that refers to all three Abrahamic religions! By specifically excluding Islam, they are able to exclude the Arab world and all those nonwhite Muslims and make them into an Other. It's an underpinning ethical framework for shit like the invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan, overthrowing Ghaddafi and the Muslim Brotherhood and plunging North Africa into chaos, and ethnically cleansing Palestine.
It needs to fucking stop.
So people can never refer to judism amd christianity by them selves?
People should be able to talk about them in any combination of one, two, or three that they want. Thats how open intellectual shit happens.
I think your passion has clouded your logic and debate.
People are one thing, but the fucking Pentagon shouldn't be talking about it! There's nothing intellectual about this shit.
Islam has a completely different code of ethics and morals compared to Judaism and Christianity. That much is self evident.
lol I bet you actually believe that
Christians 1000 years ago were basically the same and in many places in Latin America and Africa they still are.
And well, they the nailed Jesus to a tree for being a trouble maker.
Y'all's the same.
I'm not a christian, and if I remember correctly, all three abrahamic religions have changed over 1000 years. Christianity for the better while Islam has stayed stagnant in its views. Popular christian sects that accept new, western values are available seemingly everywhere while the same cannot be said about Islam.
Other popular Christian sects want to torture women to death instead of letting them get abortions and want to specifically kill me for being trans.
Different assholes, all the same shit.
