Heh, well it's easy to see who among us is catholic/christian. The differences in the ways jews percieve, understand and have a relationship with their God is so different.. I'm not religious myself, but the contrasts fascinate me.

For one, jews don't see their God as being able to do anything and everything, things are are illogical such as making a rock that He cannot move are not possible.

Additionally, God isn't necessarily all-knowing or inflappable.. in fact, if you read Genesis, Abraham more than once is able to argue with and in fact sway God's judgement.. some would say that this was all God's plan, but most Jews, and the midrash (scholarly rabbinical commentary included in the Torah, the "old testament") says otherwise.
