Why does not a Muslim give his daughter in marriage to a Jew or a Christian?

A Muslim husband respects the origin of his wife's religion, be she a Christian or a Jew, her Book, and her messenger and his faith is deemed incomplete without that. He also gives her the freedom of practicing her religious rituals. The opposite; however, is not true. If a Christian or a Jew believes that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is the messenger of Allah, we can give him our daughters in marriage.
