I am a firm believer that every religion, no matter how diverse and how much in hatred with each other, are all tied together to one common source of unity that makes all humans related to one another in the realm of religions. Of course, only a few people would be happy to agree with me as we are mostly guided by the thought that divided us and not those that unites us. Up for discussion today, Christianity and Judaism, are two religions, the “Biblical Religions”, also have a common source of origin, enhanced by the many similarities and differences that have shaped them into unique and diverse religions each.
