I don’t think Irony means what you think it means.

I’m damned sure irony means what I think it means and I’m indifferent to what you think it means:

the expression of one’s meaning by using language that normally signifies the opposite, typically for humorous or emphatic effect

Calling a Jew an Old Testament Christian, while not an exact opposite as the somewhat restrictive dictionary definition would require, is using opposing terms for a humorous effect sadly lost on you.
