Judaism has always watched for a coming messiah. Did not Moses state that God would raise up a prophet like him, and those that refused to listen to him would be destroyed?
Now that the Messiah has come...and they killed him...Jews have backpedaled away from the idea that they ever expected a messiah. They either ignore the prophecies or apply them to Israel now. But not to Jesus...no, siree.
I suspect that Kaninchen is a secular Jew. She might celebrate Passover and Hanukkah with her parents (because they want her to), but based on what she DOESN'T say here or at CAF, I think if she ever had any real belief in the G-d of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob long ago, she gave it up long ago.
She's VERY European, after all.
