Perhaps, but it still can only be the same entity. You can't have parallel universes that had the same creation of the world, Moses, or whatever else you want to pull from the Bible that both religions base on. There is only one creator (if in fact any creator even exists). Again, it's all in interpretation. It really bases down to the fact on whether or not Jesus was or was not the Messiah. Jews believe he was not, Christians believe he was. That was the fork in the road where the two religions split. Before that, they were one, thus the same Deity. Someone is wrong at that junction in the road (and no, neither of the religions can actually prove which fork in the road was the correct one to take). The Jewish relgion moved foward from that point in one direction, and the Christian religion moved forward from that point in the other direction. |
