And maybe you could straighten me out on another little misconception ... kids in Christian schools, Sunday Schools and Bible Schools all study from the bible, which contains (part of) the Jewish part ... the Torah. But it seems that kids in Jewish school aren't even allowed to lay eyes on the Christian part. Oh, I forgot, the Christian part is heresy which deserves to be burned (but only in secret, of course).
Its passing strange to me that Christians can't get their minds all the way around the fact that Islam at least acknowledges Jesus as a key biblical figure, whereas Judeaism denies him altogether ...
Well, seeing how Christianity came out of Judaism, it would be kind of hard to teach Christianity without the Torah.

Let's start bashing Buddhists and Hindus too, for not acknowledging Jesus either.
And this is some sort of surprise to you? Islam is a heresy of both Judaism and Christianity, so it has to acknowledge the truth of it's sources. Judaism regards Christianity as a heresy of Judaism, when they acknowledge that much of a connection. They would no more honor Jesus than Christians honor Mohammed, nor should they, considering their beliefs.
No that would not be a mistake, that would be an ACCIDENT. I do not think that this is a difficult concept for one to pick up. A mistake is when you do something deliberately, than decide that it was the wrong thing to do. As in this situation.
Judaism stands on its own. Christianity can not stand but for Judaism. Islam plagiarizes both.
