>Why does your deity have to be the same one the jews worship?
because Yahweh is the only God in history that
>has a profound meaningful name ('I am that I am'/'the becoming one'/'I am being itself' - from the hebrew verb yhw 'to be') that describes the deity as being something more cosmological
>came mysteriously out of nowhere which no obvious fixed geological/cultural ties and outlasted literally every other deity for thousands of years
>somehow appeals intuitively to any and all humans that find out about it
>the belief in which has technologically, societally and morally improved humanity on a large scale across time in ways literally no other deity has done
>has various prophecies attributed to it that actually panned out and happened in real life (messianic prophecies about Jesus, things like the destruction of Israel and the temple - twice - confirmed by things like the dates of the dead sea scrolls)
>is the only deity in history that has a physical representative who is known to objectively had existed (Jesus) who was strongly believed by many people at the time to be what he claimed
>said claims lasted THOUSANDS of years and conspicuously appealed morally and intuitively to literally any and every human that came across the claims regardless of race, culture or anything
>the only one that has a holy text comprised of disparate books written HUNDREDS OF YEARS APART from each other that somehow still has a narrative throughline, poetic and symbolic callbacks/recurring aspects and foreshadowing despite being a collection of disparate texts written independently HUNDREDS OF YEARS APART
>said biblography is also the ONLY such holy text of a deity that has survived for thousands of years unchanged and with information in it that still appeals to humans at literally any time point
>said holy text is also the ONLY holy text that has a timeline of creation/human history that roughly 1:1 matches how it actually happened
