Unfortunately these people of the book are rather unforgiving and rabid in their outlook towards god.. Everything else that existed before or after is paganism for them. On the other hand eastern philosophy is expansive and open to influences and accepting of various ways to God.
come to think of it - professing "my way or burn on the highway", can this be the mark of a God-oriented approach?!
while this has been more-or-less traditional approach of the mid-east and the west in general, the east has repeatedly told and produced hundreds of extraordinary people that have exquisitely demonstrated this in fine practice, that, "there are many ways to the mountaintop!"
