Billions of Christians do not worship in the way that Jews do. (Edited)

That Jews exclude is relevant to the subject of "Why Jews Exclude," with respect to Christianity. Though Jews have chuckim, chuckim have precise ways that they can be observed. Different from the possibility of Orthodox chuckim observance, Christianity has thousands of different denominations, each with different doctrine. Differently, with Judaism, there is only difference with respect to the amount or level of observance, while Rabbi's are not in disagreement over what the words actually say. For example, Rabbis can argue laws in Talmud, but no Rabbi has a doubt as to the conclusion of the argument in the Mishnah Torah. Christianity has no doctrine or commentary where conclusions gained widespread agreement. Consequently, for lack of coherence Christianity must be excluded from Judaism

The majorities of faith associated religions include Christians and Muslims, and while there is a very small minority of Christians that worship like Jews, not messianic Jews, however, billions of Christians do not worship in the way that Jews do.

Most Jews would probably say Islam is closer to Judaism than Christianity.  The Jews that say Islam is closer to Judaism than Christianity are correct.  It is a shame when Jews and Muslims don't get along.  Islam and Judaism should be like monotheistic brothers.  From the perspective of Judaism, calling Gd Allah is probably just fine, as Allah means, "Hallelujah," in English.
 
Let's get one thing straight, Christianity, especially the Christian doctrine of the New Testament is too confusing if not impossible for Jews to understand (myself included). Consequently, to the fact that leading Jewish rabbis fail to understand the New Testament, is that rabbis believe it is not Jewish.  It cannot be any other way for Jews.  The leading Jews must be able to understand the New Testament in order for it worth anything at all.  Even Christians admit that the New Testament can't be completely understood.  Thus, it is such that the messianic Jews or the Jews 4 Jesus are misguided.
 
The New Testament is often understood by non-Jews to mean, "Do good!"  Sometimes it means that, and other time is has justified Inquisitions, and Crusades. However, beyond that I don't believe that there are many conclusions that we as followers of Torah can make that are in agreement with Christianity.
