Christianity is just an abreviated form of the Hebrew Judeo Religion. Christianity is really just another Greek Religion, isnt it?

Not even close to a good, brief description.

Christianity balances all of it's belief, in the fact of a living God. In otherwards the belief that Jesus rose from the dead. Jewish people believe in Jesus but as a prophet.

That is actually two different statements. I am not sure which to respond to.

Jesus was born into Jewish culture. His parents and other family were Jewish. Matthew 5:17 "Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them." After Jesus crucifixion and ascension his followers started calling themselves Christians. The apostle Paul traveled to bring the gospel to Asia and Greece. The Greeks had many gods; Christianity has One.

The Catholic Church officially teaches: When she delves into her own mystery, the Church, the People of God in the New Covenant, discovers her link with the Jewish People, "the first to hear the Word of God. The Jewish faith, unlike other non-Christian religions, is already a response to God's revelation in the Old Covenant. To the Jews "belong the sonship, the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, the worship, and the promises; to them belong the patriarchs, and of their race, according to the flesh, is the Christ"; "for the gifts and the call of God are irrevocable." Neither all Jews indiscriminately at that time, nor Jews today, can be charged with the crimes committed during the Passion of Jesus Christ. The Jews should not be spoken of as rejected or accursed as if this followed from Holy Scripture. For more information, see the Catechism of the Catholic Church, sections 597 and 839: http://www.usccb.org/catechism/text/pt1sect2chpt2art4p2.shtml#597 http://www.usccb.org/catechism/text/pt1sect2chpt3art9p3.shtml#839 With love in Christ.
