Yeah, this a smart answer.

This doesn't even make any sense. Judaism and Christianity are related but they're separate religions.

Nowadays, yeah, though things like food banks and hospitals often still have Christian names, origins, and even (particularly older) members.
And progressive institutions like the YMCA and the Salvation Army were explicitly Christian from the beginning.
But you notice I am mostly naming older things.
- pseudalopex 6y agoI assume hprotagonist meant ethnic Jews. Charity and economic justice are different. Even the Salvation Army and many religious hospitals discriminate against LGBT people.
