In all seriousness, I do find the term to be odd. It was barely used before the mid-20th century. What is a "Judeo-Christian"?
Well technically all Christians were meant to be “judeo” if you take the prophesies of the Hebrew Bible seriously. We were grafted IN to the promises, not pruned OUT.
With that said, the term implies a shared basis for societal morality and expectations founded on biblical case law.

I guess I understand this premise, but I don't think it really works from a historical perspective. There was nothing "Judeo" about Christian Western Civilization, and very little "Judeo" about Christianity post-Paul.
Anyway, not trying to start a debate per se, it's just something I find interesting.
