I'm not sure whether you mean religions that look at Jerusalem as a holy place, or Israel as a whole?

As far as I know, no religion - not even Judaism - looks at Israel in its entirety as a holy place. However, both Judaism and Muslim religions regard Jerusalem as a holy place.

Jerusalem is a city claimed by both Israel and Palestine for that reason, and is therefore the site of a lot of religious animosity.

Answer:

Actually many Christians and Jews view the entire country as a holy place.

What has caused tensions between Israel and Palestine?

The tension have started mainly from founding Israel in an area which includes both Jewish and Arab people. The countries in this area are associated with religions, and so there was a fight for the shared territory. The tension is also caused from the difference in religions themselves, there are areas in Israel sacred to all three religions, and there is an argument who should occupy them. The main formal motive of Israel is self defense, while the Arabs around it have different reasons. In Gaza they call for independency and equal rights. In Lebanon they want Israel to allow Palestine people from Lebanon to live in Israel, an so on. My personal opinion: There is a lot of suffering in the middle east, and suffering makes you look for someone to blame. It's easier to hate the ones who are different.

Did the Catholic Church borrow from other religions?

Roman Catholic AnswerNo. However, different people may look at it differently. For instance, the Catholic Church is a direct descendant of ancient Israel. All of the first Catholics were Jews who believed that Jesus was the Messiah. To this day, the entire Old Testament is part of the Christian Scriptures. A Jew may, indeed, look at a Christian and say they are "borrowing" from Judaism. As for other religions: God has provided that everyone should be able to attain salvation, and for that they must have a choice. To a certain extent there is some truth in all religions. But it is the extent to which they have perceived the truth that they have things in common with Catholicism. Catholicism, along with Judaism, are the only two religions that have been directly revealed to men by God, Himself.So, no, they have not borrowed from other religions, everything in them has been directly revealed by God, or indirectly, but still from God, not other religions.
