can you provide me with other good points that you might think i should discuss in my paper within the outline that you provided me with. I just don't want to miss anything and give everything that is important for the comparing and contrasting of the two religions.judaism and chrisitianity.
Here are some ideas; each one may fit one or the other or both. You decide!
Deity (name, power, how viewed, etc.)
Place of origin
Major people (prophets, leaders, etc.)
Holy book/writings
Central beliefs
Any sects (divisions)
Main goals
Main practices, including worship practices
Maybe some of these will trigger some other ideas in your mind.
And here are some overall sites to help, in case you haven't already found them:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judaism
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christianity
In addition to the information in each one, be sure to check out the Bibliography and External Links sections for each one at the bottom of each webpage.

FOR THE DIETY I FOUND A WEBSITE IS THIS WHAT YOU MEAN ABOUT DIETY.
Abraham, about 4000 years ago, entered into an agreement with the one supreme deity. The Torah, the first five books of the Hebrew Scriptures, presents a written account of the people of Israel as they responded to the call of the deity toward worldwide peace and justice. "Hope for redemption of the world" is a central vision. The family is focal point for religious observances, education, and identity. The Sabbath begins on Friday sundown and continues to Saturday sundown and is observed by worship at the synagogue and family events.
The deity is God or Jehovah in Christianity and Judaism.
The paragraph you quoted doesn't say much about the deity. In Judaism, God is seen more as a stern law-giver. In Christianity, He's viewed as a father-figure.
