Many Christians do see themselves as separate from the Jews, although it is 
the same religion.  Many of the founding Christians were Jews, but many were 
Gentiles, Peter comes to mind.  He was a Gentile.  The Jews certainly see 
themselves as separate from the Christians.  Most still believe that only the 
descendents of Abraham are allowed to worship "their" God, and that the word 
of God is meant only for them.  That is what the "stink" was all about over 
Jesus back when he was alive and why he was killed.  He taught the word of 
God to the Gentiles.  It gets sticker.  Mohammad was a Christian and the 
teachings in the Qur'an are Christ's.  Now they (Jews, Christians and 
Moslems) are like three sibling brothers all fighting over their Father's 
inheritance.

  Actually, I don't think Christians see themselves as being separate from 
  those of Jewish faith in most fronts. After all, they openly follow a 
Jewish 
  carpenter and his father, their God. All the founders of Christianity were 
Jews and 
  they started out in synagogues. All the original Christian writings were by 
  Jews, so of course the Christian faith is tracable to them. Essentially 
their 
  faith is an offshoot from judaism, so I still think the statement is fine.
