OFC, they had to get rid of the faction that thought you -did-....and somehow square that away with "jesus" comments about not changing jots and tittles....but, that was np. Few clubs to the head here and there, a largely illiterate customer base..hey presto - success!
As to the rest, murder is also a part of christian scoiety..it was foundational to it's creation..and jesus didn't write anything on my heart. I turn away from the bad all by my onesies, part of that is turning away from christianity....so I guess I get a pass on all of the things like any christian might?
If that was a marketing decision, then it was a completely unnecessary one. No one has ever needed to be Jewish to worship the Israelite deity, and the non-Jewish worship of the Israelite deity never had the zany rules about circumcision and such. The Torah says that when a gentile brings an offering to the Temple, their offering was to be accepted.
