Yes, I agree that Christianity is a form of reformed Judaism. It has also undergone many changes since its founding and has had a major reformation of its own.A religion on which Christianity is based and whose rituals have been incorporated is Judaism which still exists.
Yes, but many in both sects get angry when that is pointed out. Christianity is a reformed Judaism, and is in fact a very conservative form of it; so many of the Jews and Jewish culture at the time of Jesus and the other reformers were fanatic racists, though, and much of the political status as well as Temple status depended on genealogical bloodlines as well as castes, it's easy to see why there was such a strong reaction to the Christians' egalitarianism toward not only other Jewish castes but women and Gentiles as well. It required an almost total uprooting of what was then Jewish societal organization.
