If Christianity is true, why are there still Jews?

If we are to believe that Christianity evolved from Judaism, how come there are still Jews?

Sorry, it's been ages since I've seen a "Why are there still monkeys?" and I'm getting withdrawal symptoms;)

    Christians believe Jesus is the messiah, and Jews don't think he's the messiah. Jews are still waiting for their messiah. That's how Christianity originated from Judaism and it was created after Jesus died.

    The fact of the matter is the reason there are still Jews is the same reason God Jesus Christ did not destroy all the Jews in the desert but only kill all the people in the wilderness of 20 years an up, except for a few like Joshua etc. We did not evolve monkeys do not talk complete sentences, they don't even speak, they make sounds that is about it. that is why God change Darwin because he worshipped the creature more the the creator, read Romans 1;24-27, im just paraphrasing it.

    But that's the issue, Christianity didn't evolve from Judaism. Christianity was based on the rejection of Judaism.

    If Christianity is actual. this is the element. I conflict with this. On one hand, Jews had/have been waiting for the messiah for an prolonged time. They understand what's meant to ensue whilst he comes. he's meant to be a militia/political chief, not God in the flesh. the assumption of God being a guy or woman is thoroughly contradictory to the Jewish thought of God. The messiah is meant to repair the temple in Jerusalem, which replaced into status for the duration of Jesus' lifetime. he's meant to print his very own money. whilst he comes, there is meant to be peace on earth. needless to say there isn't peace on earth. So, Jesus did not fulfill his very own recommendations, that he replaced into raised with as a Jew, of the messiah. Then I study the Sermon on the Mount. captivating. Then I understand, his rabbi in all hazard pronounced maximum of this to him as he replaced into turning out to be up. nonetheless captivating. One the only hand, Jesus replaced into needless to say a actual guy or woman who made a great impression on the folk of his time. on the different, he did not fulfill messianic prophecies. for this reason there are nonetheless Jews.

    Because part of the truth of the Christian faith is that God keeps His promises. Many of which He made to the Jews.

    Could someone please explain to me the origins of the straw monkey I keep seeing anti-theists use?
