See, this is the problem with Christians when it comes to faith. They think they have steak, but really all the have is a cow like every other person who believes. Steak is not different than cow just like Muslim is not different than Christian.


See there are a few of you on here on the non-Christian side of the argument who surmise Christianity with conjecture and/or outright fraudulent statements like the one you proffered in your post to where it makes it hard to have a meaningful debate.

Your contention that Muslims and Christians are any more than very loosely related shows how either insincere or misinformed you are...I'd be embarrassed to bring this type of Pop Warner level tactics and knowledge to a discussion of the NFL...

Christians and Muslims aren't loosely related.

Christians and Muslims are the same other than their different names for their gods.

I could factually make this statement look utterly foolish and will if you wish?

They aren't. Islam claims Allah has no son. Jehovah has a son, Jesus. How does one rationalize that this could somehow be the same God? This is only one of many glaring differences between the two.

You know, the whole Isaac and Ishmael thing.

The same argument could be made to say that Christians and Jews dont worship the same god, which would be stupid.

Both Ishmael and Isaac served Jehovah God so, no.

The Jewish God is still Jehovah and they don't accept Jesus as messiah or son. Islam doesn't worship Jehovah, but Allah. Surely two different Gods are......different?
Mohamed was a nomad and his dad worshipped multiple gods including the moon god. When Mohamed decided to invent Islam, he chose this moon God to worship only and named him Allah. This is why the crescent moon is on the Islamic flag. Allah isn't now, or ever was Jehovah.

This is so dense. Is Yaweh different than Jehovah? No? But there names are different!!!! These religions are practiced by people who speak different languages. Of course they will call God different things. I for one, in all my years as a Christian, never once referred to God as Jehovah.

ETA: Allah is literally Arabic for God.

I didn't say the Jews and Christians worshipped a different God. I said Islam's God and Jehovah aren't the same.
Read about how Mohamed chose one of his father's many gods ( moon god) to fashion Allah after.
Allah isn't Jehovah. Jehovah isn't Allah.

Why don't you do a little reading about Mohamed, his life and his father's many false gods. And how he chose one ( the moon god) and fashioned Islam around this god and named him Allah. He was totally invented then and has no relation to Jehovah the God of the bible. Things that are different aren't the same.

What do you mean? Im simply saying that you are discounting the Quran and saying that Islam is made up and Allah is not real.

Wrong....some faiths do not worship any particular being...

So by the same token, I could say all land animals breathe air from the same atmosphere therefore all land animals are the same?

How about all people who have bank accounts at my bank do business with the same company therefore all the bank accounts are the same and have the same amounts?

Yep go to a fundamentalist Muslim country and openly speak out against Islam and see how similar Muslims treat you versus Christians...
