Islam or Christianity?
547721
I don't understand why anyone from any particular faith (if they are happy with it), accept any other religion or faith? I don't understand this. While Islam and the Prophet Mohamed (Peace be upon him) have said that God had perfected Islam as the true path to finding truth, it is still upto individuals to follow or now. You must understand that God also created man with a free will, so how can you force anyone to accept what you think is a perfect religion.\n\nOthers may not agree, and if they find faults in their own religion they may go out and research, and you know what some have even left Christianity and gone onto Buddhism! Shocked, but if the person finds peace with that religion, so be it. It is not upto you or me to force people to believe anything, it is upto individuals themselves. A lot of people now don't even believe in religions. Actually you don't need a religion to be  a good person. If one lives by ones own virtues and conscience then I am sure he will live a good life as ordained by God.\n\nAnd your analogy of this father, son business really does not hold. I think Muslims should try to practice their religion in the best way possible, and it is their action that must speak, in otherwords, if you show me that you are a good muslim, that you are an honest man, that you care for your parents, wife and children, that you follow God's command and educate your children, that you do not hurt others, I mean even hurt other poeples feelings, and if you mind and your own business, then perhaps I might find your faith kind of interesting and I will most certainly ask questions. \n\nIf you want people to look into Islam that is the only way, not by professing that it is a better religion or anything like that. \n\nGood luck and be a good person.

Christianity is a pick and choose religion.

The word Islam is comparable to the word Christianity.  \n\nThe word Muslim is comparable to the word Christian.\n\nMuslims practice Islam and live in many countries.  I'm an American Muslim practicing Islam as well as I know how.  I have friends who are British Muslims, Pakistani Muslims, Canadian Muslims, Australian Muslims, Iraqi Muslims. . . . .\n\nDid that answer your question?  Let me know if you need more info - I'll not make fun of you for seeking knowledge.

The main difference between christians and muslims is idol worshipping, though most of the christians say that it is forbidden but yet many follow. The second is christians accept Jesus as their God but we muslims accept Jesus as the messenger of Allah or a prophet sent by Allah before prophet Muhammad.

1. I am a Christian and do not believe that Islam is equal to terrorism. \n\n2.  I am a Christian who aloso does not believe that Islam is the religon from God. In fact I do not believe in Religon. Religon blinds and enslaves people. Truth awakens people and sets them free.  I've studied Islam, and this is just my personal view, but it didn't speak to me.   Much of it seems like a mixture between Judaism and Christianity.  I just think Christianity is more true, if not the truth.  \n\nAs for 1000s of people converting to Islam everyday, well 1000s of people convert to Christianity everyday, but you and I know that there is a diffrence between one who calls themselves a Muslim and One who truly is a Muslim. Just like there is a diffrence betweeen one Who calls himself a Christian and one who is truly a Christian.  \n\nG-flux\nGod bless

Much of the christian world is in the dark about islam. Christianity is not a religion that accepts those who do not believe in the same religion. Too many people know too little about other religions, and than make ignorant statements about what they do not know.

Differences between the two religions began the day Abraham separated Ishmael and Hagar his mother from Isaac and Sarah, the progenitors of these faiths.  Both religions believe in the same monotheistic God, but views on how to relate and otherwise commune with Him differ drastically.  Christianity teaches that Jesus is the only way to God, Islam teaches that Jesus was not God Incarnate, but rather a prophet of Allah, who at the end of time will come back to proclaim Islam the true religion.

Biblical Christianity. Islam was started by a man not God who was possesed by a demon while in a cave. Islam has it's roots in polytheism (worship of many gods). Muhammed picked his favorite (allah the moon god) and started a new religion. The quran is not a proven historically accurate book while the Bible has never been disproved by Science, History or Archaeology. Islam is a violent religion that seeks to make converts by any means and has no problems with killing people who don't agree (9/11). Even though Christian history has times where people did horrible things while calling themselves Christians (the inquisition) those who did such things were not true Christians becuase Biblical Christianity presents people with the truth that Jesus died for their sins and He is the only way to heaven. Believe in Him repent of your sins and He will forgive you and give you the gift of eternal life for free. Islam does not promise eternal life and does not offer it for free. Islam does not deal with people's sins and offers no way to be forgiven. Islam is false and I hope those who have been deceived by it's horrible teachings will come to find Jesus as their Savior so they can be forgiven of their sins.\n\nIn Islam the people have to do their best to reach a distant and unloving deity. In Christianity God in His love for His creation reached down to us by sending His Son so we wouldn't have to reach up to Him. He made the way for us.

Because Islam was dreamed up more than six centuries after the time of Christ, Islam denies the divinity of Christ, and as the first respondent pointed out you are arguing languages. and you have no valid basis for it. and blondecow131 you are wrong about Islam accepting either Judaism or Christianity.

I have said this now for years, and I say it because I believe it to be true. (Note here: This is in no way meant to put down any one or any faith. Its just an opinion, based on a variety of reasons that I won't go into here. Going into my reasons here now would take to much time and detail.) From a monotheistic standpoint, given the Abrahamic tradition, Islam is the only truly viable religion in the world today. And that is my main thought concerning Islam. ~ Peace & Blessings ~

I don't know, but the former Attorney General of the United States, John Ashcroft, said something like "Islam is a religion in which God requires you to send your son to die for him.  Christianity is a faith in which God sends his son to die for you."  Personally I think that was an insulting and offensive to the Muslim world.  Unfortunately I have yet to hear a better distinction drawn.

Well, I'm Christian. There are a lot of Muslims who practice Islam. There's also Catholic, Jewish, Buddhism, Hinduism, and many more.

Islam is a false copycat religion it copy's Judaism in many points. It is nothing Like Christianity. Where it differs, Judaism is based on living a life of Righteousness before God and loving your fellow man. Islam is based on hate, violence, and revenge. To this day if a Muslim converts to another religion he/she will be killed. That why Muslims strap bombs to their back and kill innocent people in the name of their god. I ask what kind of god would tell someone to do that. Only a devil would, is the only correct answer. \n\nJudaism was given to Moses by God, where Islam was form by a man therefore false its a made-man religion. Judaism has been around for thousands of years, historical you will NEVER find a trace of Islam before 600 AD.\n\nThe only reason Islam spread as quickly as it did Muslims would go to a non-Muslim village and give the people a choice convert or die. Once they converted they were given another choice help us to convert the world to Islam or die. That's were the crusades come in when Islam started pushing its way into Europe by convert one village at a time European Christian stood up against the army of Muslims and pushed them back into the Middle East. When that happen Muslim changes directions and headed into Asia and down into Africa.\n\nThe bottom line is Islam is false religion and only a Idiot would believe in it.  Study history pal!

You question is proof of the amazing stupidity of Muslims as a group. \n\nFirst, you offer no link or source for you claim, which is typical of Muslims who resemble the primitive mind set that relied totally on the oral tradition. Muslims blindy accept what they are told orally and almost never have any substance behind their claim.\n\nSecond, under your logic, you should be Christian because there are more Christians than Muslims in the world, who are also far superior in education and thus, under your stupid logic we should ask "who would there be so many Christians unless it were not true?"
