Muslim's are also descendents of Abraham through the line of Ismaael while Jews are descendents through the line of Isaac. They are all related and all believe in one God. Muslims call God, Allah. Jews call God Jehovah, and Christians call God, God. Neither Muslims or Jews believe that Jesus is the Son of GOd or that He was the Messiah. When thinking about other religions one must remember that their followers believe just as strongly in what they are taught as Christians believe in the Bible. Also in all faiths there are hipocrites and there are true followers. I have known both in all faiths and what it came down to is that those who truly believed did not condemn those who believed differently nor did they judge others. Instead they prayed that all mankind would find the answer to their salvation similar to what Peter did when he said if one believes it to be sin it is sin for them. Have a good day. Jackie Dear Tee

I suggest you study what Islamic text actually say. "Believers, take neither Jews nor Christians for your friends. They are friends with one another. Whoever of you seeks their friendship shall become one of their number. Allah does not guide the wrongdoers." (5:51, Quran) The Qur’an condones violence on the kaffirs, not just some Muslims that condone violence. I suggest you study what Islamic text actually say.

I do realize that some Muslims condone violence but many of their believers are peaceful. IT is similar to assuming that since the KKK exists in America that we are all prejudice or the that all Germans supported Hitler. I do believe that Jesus was a man of peace but I don't believe that today's preachers are all about helping the poor and the downtrodden. Since I was involved in church work for years I know first hand that many denominations are about the money they can put in their coffers even at the cost of their congregation. Sorry to disagree with you but that is what has made America great. The right to express our opinions. Have a nice day. Jackie Dear Elric

I suggest you study up on the Qur'an, the Hadiths, the history of Islam before comparing Islam to Chritianity. You probaly even blame the Crusades on the Christians. Just remember, Islam is militant in itself. Jesus was a man of peace. You clearly have no understanding of Islam.

From my own perspective as a "conservative" Christian with a passion for history - it seems to me that during the first 19 & 1/2 centuries of the Christian faith - its greatest dangers were from outside of the faith & the church, but during the last half century its greatest dangers have been from within the Christian faith & the church itself. We tend to forget that "Christian" means to be "Christ-like." I agree with Trotter’s response.
