Allah is the God of Abraham, Issac and Jacob as well as Jesus. What the disagreement is about is what God demands of us. Jesus is recognized as a great Islamic prophet. Different strokes for different folks!

If you believe this you are either worthy of pity, or just the lowest common denominator in human currency, with all due respects of course.

Sorry to say you are way off base on this one...You shouldn't speak of things you know nothing about.

I minored in religion at a Christian College. I think I know something about religion. It may interest you to know that Rabbis of the eighth century allowed Jews to sell land in what is now Israel to Muslims but not to Christians because they considered Islam a more pure form on monotheism. Both Islam and the Jewish faith recognize the oneness of God, while Christianity believes in the trinity. That being said, both Judaism and Christianity appear to be more loving faiths, but that has not always been true.

Saltwind - I don't know if you are contradicting or not. There is no real allah except in the minds of the muslims. The jewish people recognize God for who He really was. They do not call him allah. The only difference between the Christians and the jewish people is that the jewish people abide by the old testament and are still waiting on their Messiah. They don't believe that Jesus was their Messiah, because God put a vail over their eyes so they could not see him as their Savior. When Jesus comes back, they will recognize Him as their Savior. It really doesn't matter, though, because they are 'the chosen people'. I admire the fact that you have majored in what you did, but I have first hand knowledge straight from the old testament and the new testament. I've studied the bible myself - just not in school. So, what's the difference? You received one teacher's point of view. I prayed and got the Lord's point of view.

You certainly are entitled to your belief, but the Old Testament and the Koran are about the same God. Allah is an Arabized version of the Jewish name for God, Elohim. The Koran demands a new religion based on the communication between the Islamic prophet and God through the angel Michael. Jews reject this book of the Muslims because they believe that all true prophets must come from the Jewish people. Christians reject the Koran because it does not recognize the divinity of Jesus, although it does recognize Jesus as a prophet.

Saltwind - I can accept that. The biggest problem with the muslims is that believe that they have to kill and start a violent war between people in order to bring their imam back. They also believe that if they die, in the name of islam, that they will go to heaven. There is only one true God and that is God the Father of Jesus Christ. So they believe in a false god. Whatever they call him. Some of what you said is true. But when they pray, it's not in the name of Jesus, who is the only way to be heard by God Almighty. God does not hear the prayers of the muslims. Only through Jesus Christ can we be heard. So all their violent and evil ways are to no avail. It's pitiful. There are those who convert. And they are killed by the muslims, if found out. That's a shame. What a misled religion - islam.

Islam has become strictly what the Muslim Brotherhood Charter, decided is not Islam, but the Islamiism of Fascist Supremacist Religiosity, these are words I credit to an Algerian friend who was victim to this re-defined Islam, the product of the first Jihad in Turkey, from 1890-1917, his experience was first hand not the politically correct justifications so many intellectually illiterate Liberal Socialists spew until they become the targets of the same 'versions' they justify as tolerant and diverse. While they have the exclusive right to discredit truth and reality, they are unable to observe without the 'guide book' of all ignorant intellectuals, the 'academia' of clueless political obedience, will they burn the books as well as the people? There are cases of this 'blind obedience' makes the burning of the 'infidel' an acceptable religious rite.

I don't believe all Muslims are wide eyed fanatics. Those who are need to be eliminated. They are the enemy. Those Muslims that agree to live and let live are not dangerous and are good people. Just be thankful you live in this blessed land which protects your right to believe in your religion.

Not what I'm saying, notice my reference is to "post Genocide" Islamiism, it was at this point were all 'secular' Muslims were branded as 'kuffar' or infidels, something that carried on from 1890-1917, this portioned Jihad was primarily against the W.W. I, Allies against the Central Powers, it was from here the word Genocide became part of the vernacular.
Armenia suffered the most recorded 'casualties' mass murder, called jihad; over 2 million of which, the ethnic Muslim were not officially listed as Armenian, at this point Islam became 'ethnically' grade as "religiosity as race" appropriately Islamiism, not Islam, Islam is not the 'politically obedient religiosity' it is now referred to,but it was a religion that not until 1920, with the Nazi Haj's first intifada, was in harmony with those religions that predated Mohammed. The Nazi Mufti al' Husseyni, also took part in the Ottoman Genocide, he was an officer in charge of the 47th. Brigade ans was the founder of units called 'fedayeen' the precursors to Al'Qaeda, these units were specialized death squads, that replaced the 'muhajadeen' which acted more 'generically' not the specific extermination of targeted 'infidel' enemies of the Islamiism of the Muslim Brotherhood, read the 'tenets' of "Tehcir Law" compare these to the Nuremberg Laws of 1935, and the specific methodology for the "final solution" most revolting is the strategic, " relocation, deportation, and extermination " of those 'subhumans', Armenians [Orthodox Christians] Gypsies, Hebrew, Catholics, a technique the Nazi Mufti took to the Third Reich, where he lived until 1945, paid a yearly fee of $12 million deposited in 'hard' currency [gold] for his work with Himmler, Eichmann, and Hitler, implementing efficient methods for the 'final solution' one innovation was the use of gas, this had been used to kill those victims of the mass murder of jihad, using this terminology, was never used before, it was the 'willful' interpretation of religiosity as religion, the vast majority of Muslims are not at all jihadis, without the 'religion' aspect attached for effect, the "supremacist racial religious" political indoctrination, would not have such a "moral authority" when the issue on pogroms, and Genocide become some religious revelation that requires wholesale death.

I beg your pardon, I respect that you minored in religion, but it would seem you learned little or nothing on the subject of Christianity. "Allah is the God of Abraham, Issac and Jacob as well as Jesus." God is the Father of Jesus, not Allah. God is the God Jesus.

Your quote. "

You certainly are entitled to your beliefs, and I would never challenge them, but being a non Christian, you will have to understand that I don't necessarily agree with them. As a matter of fact,Islam is one of the three Abrahamic religions. The deity that Christians call " God, the father ", Muslims call Allah. You and I may disagree with the Muslim view of the Almighty , but thee three faiths ( Christianity, Judaism and Islam ) all worship the same God.

Ok, have it your way. You have a right to your opinion.
