Did catholism originate from judaism?

[Asian_Catholic]

Since Jewish people rejected Jesus Christ and killed him, I don’t understand why Christianity in the name of political correctness is being re-labeled “Judeo-Christianity.” That seems to make as much sense to me as calling it “Islamo-Christianity,” since Islam incorporates the Bible into the Koran.

But, looking at Judaism and Christianity today, they are completely different and have completely different sets of moral codes and spiritual beliefs. In Judaism, the Talmud, which is a collection of Rabbinical teachings, takes precedence over the Torah, and many of the Talmudic teachings are quite shocking (quite anti-Christian, for example).

Regards.

Judeo Christian does not refer to Christianity so much as to the existence of Natural and Moral Law, and the belief in One God. The saying refers more to the philosophical principles than Theology. Thanks and God Bless.

It sure did! EWTN had a series on back in 2000. It was a Catholic Compas series called the Jewish roots of Catholicism, they sometimes will show it again. In it, the host is a Jewish convert to Catholicism. I learned that things such as praying for the dead, asking for the intercession of Saints, votive lights, indulgences, and litanies all have their roots in Judaism.
