Document Summary

Not all religions share the same timeline. Not all religions use the western calander. Some religions use bce (before common era) / ce (common era) others use bc (before christ) / ad (after death) Christianity tends to be apocalyptic, other religions do not always embody this theory of the end of the world, or judgment day . Christian calendar (ce calendar) starts at 0 -> the day christ was born. Judaism vs christianity in judaism, christ is not the messiah. > jesus was known as a revered rabbi, but he is not seen as the savior of the jewish people. > jewish people are still waiting for the messiah. > judaism also does not have the sense of original sin aka every human being is tainted after adam and eve until the resurrection of jesus (resurrection washed away the sins of all people) > judaism people do not believe that every human is tainted with sin.
