The Fountainhead

Submitted by S.C.Panda (India), Jan 23, 2003 at 00:55

Dear Prof Pipes,
I understand that Judaism is the fountainhead of Christianity and Islam as Sanatana Dharma ( popularly known as Hindism) is to Buddhism, Jainism and Sikhism.
I am of the opinion that Christians and Muslims should show deference/respect to and for Judaism. But this is not happening and on the contrary, Judaism is blamed and despised. I do not know if there were disinterested debates on this theme, else such debate may be initiated. MEF or any other suitable agency may take lead in organising.
Regards, Sincerely, S.C.Panda
