Lack of differentiation between Freud's views on Judaism and Christianity[edit]

It seems strange that there is never any differentiation between Freud's views on Judaism vs. Christianity, as if he regarded all religions in his part of the world as indistinguishable; I read in some personal correspondence at the Freud Museum in Vienna a letter (in English translation) in which he states that "Future of An Illusion" for example was written entirely about Judaism (in my experience people tend to assume it's a critique of Christianity).Historian932 (talk) 05:32, 17 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
