She didn't actually ever remember not being a Christian. The thing that freaked her out as she discovered how many kinds of Christians there were. And then to realize, and as slow going and never really sank in until she was looking through a Jewish child's eyes. Then it became quite obvious.
this is their book. This is a history of Jews. The entire book from the beginning of the world to the collection of letters at the end. All written by Jews. And until the end, probably only for Jews. And they are sharing Judaism. And that is what Christianity is. Ery jot and tittle of faith is in The Torah and it is incomplete so the prophets kept us up-to-date and are there still prophets? Of course there are. God didn't die. Nietzche was jealous because he didn't get to be Jesus.
Why would anyone bother to rewrite what no one is ever going to read?
The Book of Matthew is her favorite book. It is because it seems endlessly intriguing that everyone who goes to church on Sunday believes that what Jesus is saying is Gospel but they don't really act like they want God on their side.
And that's the clincher because Look what happened to Jesus. Was God saying, don't do what I do, do what I say?
