in response to reader comment: Moshe Sharon is very selective in his description of the 3 monotheistic religions

Yes, Judaism is the most tolerant of the 3 religions, believing that the mitzvot are obligations for Jews only (non-Jews should observe the Noahide laws), and also believing there is a place in heaven for "rigtheous gentiles." Compare this to Christianity, where you can't get into heaven if you aren't in the club, and Islam, them most intolerant "religion" on the face of the planet.
