With the rise in antisemitism that we are seeing in the world it might be wise to look into our own backyards for signs of it encroaching into our lawns. I did not know this until recently, but the term "Judeo-Christian" is not liked by some who think of themselves as "Christian." Those who would throw out the tree to which we were engrafted are falling for the old heresy of Marcionism which rejected the Old Testament God.
Educate yourself and see Bill Muehlenberg who has a long post on the topic titled, "On the Term ‘Judeo-Christian’".
If you encounter someone who does not accept the "Term", please don't jump on them and call them an antisemite even though they might be one. Armed with the Biblical facts, first ask them about how they reached that conclusion, and then practice your apologetics with them.
