The original version of Christianity that Jesus established was something brand new on this earth. It wasn’t closed to women. And it was so concerned with issues of social welfare…like caring for the sick and caring for the poor…that it embedded them into its doctrines. And it was only exclusivist in the sense that it foreclosed devotion to all other deities. Judaism was exclusivist in that capacity as well, but also in so many other ways that have already been mentioned. And Judaism crucially lacked a missionary impulse as well.
