The Christian argument would be that your religion changed the standards after the event. In doing so, it ceased to be the true descendant of the religion of Abraham, Isaac, and Moses.People have argued about this for the past two millennia (or 1700 years if you believe Illig). Ultimately, what it comes down to is that the modern Jewish and Christian positions are incompatible and that neither is capable of convincing the adherents of the other. The best that can be hoped for is that the adherents of each respect the other's right to believe whatever they wish, so long as practicing those beliefs do not entail illegal acts. |
