I don't think that Milesian is trying to show off any superior knowledge here. The problem is that you are being stubborn at denying what is so evident, that is that Judaism is a religion.
Because I have Jew friends who say it is not a religion, i do agree its Law, but what is law? the way we need to live,such as not to eat ham, according to the Torah,I studied religion one semester, Judaism its not a religion, its a doctrine, how a person should live. Howerver if you think it is, than its fine.

@ Ljubomir: the Talmud are rabbinic teachings and as far as I know it also contains laws.
