So this link (result #3 for the google term "do Jews and Christians believe in the same god")

You need to educate yourself. I told you they don't believe Jesus was the son of god but do believe he was a prophet of god

Well, she owns one less now

Given that religion is the greatest blight on our intellectual development and has been throughout history, and that religious belief has essentially poisoned every aspect of human achievement already, it's quite hard to think of a reason why it wouldn't poison our first contact with an extra terrestrial species.
