Allah....
For muslims , the Greatest and the Most inclusive of the Names of God , an Arabic word of rich and varied meaning , denoting The One Who is adored in worship, Who creates all the exists, Who had priority over all creations, Who is lofty and hidden ,Who confounds all human understanding. It is exactly the same word that the Jews, in Hebrew, use for God (eloh), the same word which Jesus Christ used in Aramaic when He prayed to God. God has an identical name in Judaism ,Chrisianity and Islam; Allah is the same God worshiped by all religions.

Ok I'm definitley not a religious scholar, but are you sure they are "the same" God? (In my opinion, they're all fake, but for arguments sake...)
I mean, I understand that Christians, Jews, and Muslims all have ONE God, but are they supposedly praying to the same one? I mean, if you read the Koran, and read the Bible are they exactly the same when describing God's actions creating the earth and people etc? I mean, I always thought that Jews and Christians had the same God, that the jews only believed in the Old testament while Christians adopted the new testament. Muslims don't agree with any of the bible do they? I hope I'm making sense, I mean...yes I understand they both think their God is the one God and the other religions are just praying to their own God under a different name, but that would mean that if God were true, then all accounts of him and his personality in the Koran and Bible would be similiar would they not?
Actually, Jesus appears in the Koran as a phrophet, as well as Mary and Joseph. I think Moses and many other Biblical figures do as well.
Jews agree with Christians up until the whole part about Jesus, as far as I know. Christianity is really a spin-off of Judiasim.
Anyway, it's all good. I'm Catholic. I don't look down on people of different faiths. They were raised different than me, their history is different. They belive they are right as adamantly as I do. Who am I to tell them they're evil and going to hell?
The only groups I really have a problem with are extreme fundamentalists in any religion. They all have the common traits of being fearful of anything but themselves, mistrusting, condescending and focused on all the negative things in this world, instead of trying to make it a better place.
*Except the Amish. They tend to be pretty laid back and don't bother anyone.
he told Mohammed one thing and Moses another thing just to mess with us :DQuote:

I thought the koran was to the new testament as the new testament is to the old testament.
Essentially, it is another book.
Muslim's just believe Jesus was just another prophet, not the son of god.

No, the main difference in the three monotheistic religions is the way they view(interpret) the creator, and what said creator expects of us.Quote:

But essentially some of the stories in all three books are the same. As a matter of fact some of these stories are derived from early mesopotamian lore. If you go to the Epic of Gilgamesh, you will find some of the roots of the stories in the old testament, such as the flood.

well that certainly throws a wet blanket on the crusade i had planed.Quote:

anybody else notice that armies in religious wars generally kill more of their own religion than the oposing religion. I knew this was always true of the crusades, but came to find it to be true of early wars in muslim expansion and internal conflict
my family is amish - i just wanted to note that 'amish' is not a religion - they are all mennonites, a form of christianity. being 'amish' is more of a persucuted lifestyle than a religion - that's why they left switzerland - to avoid being burned at the stake....Quote:

listen to DP - he is correct. the jewish, christian, and muslim god are literally the SAME DIETY. any scholar from any of those 3 religions would know this. muhammad is the 'seal of the prophets', or the last of 'the one god's' messengers. islam teaches that there have been many prophets throughout time (from abraham to moses to jesus to muhammad), but muhammad was the final prophet. god will send no more.
a quick question, arent the Jews still waiting for their "messiah" and dont christians expect a second coming? Or have I been watching too many movies. :)Quote:

i don't think the messiah/second coming is really a prophet per say...more of a traffic cop. "Angels this way, Sinners that way" "Please move on, there's nothing to see here"....Quote:

another question for you nordberg. Are the amish an offshoot of the Calvinists or Menonites?
never mind, i found it, the mennonites.
let me say i'm not much of a christian, not a very good jew either.Quote:

I think the second coming of christ for the christians is more of a traffic cop as you say. A weeding out of the sinners.
The messiah for the jews is more of a leader. The messiah was a jew that would unite the jewish people and return them to isreal and rebuild the temple in Jerusalem. Considering the isreali government practices the return and the fact that they are building the wall east of Jerusalem seems to be taking away some of the Messiah's tasks.
reform and reconstructionist judaism do not believe there will be a messiah. but that messiah is a metaphor for elightenment and working together.
Why do you say that?Quote:

Decided to have another look just for larfs, and found what is probably THE best part of the site, regarding consumerism as ruining christmas, and therefore being evil.
Quote:
J.C. Penny - The J.C. makes us think of Jesus Christ, thus associating our Lord with the lowest monetary value, the penny (even Judas valued Him at 30 pieces of silver!).
Sears - What the flesh of the damned does in Hell. It also sounds like "seers", Pagan mystics who engaged in occult premonitions.
Cinnabon - Sounds like "Sin Upon".
Orange Julius - Named for the Pagan Emperor of Rome. This company's mascot was once a devil, until they changed it to hide their true intentions.
Hot Topic - A recent store aimed at children that openly sells devil paraphernalia. Any guess as to why "hot" is in their name?
Hallmark Gold Crown Stores - Purveyors of Santamas tree ornaments depicting anthropomorphized woodland creatures (reference to Evolutionism) and Harry Potter merchandise. What notable person will have a mark and wear crowns? (Rev. 13:16, 13:1)
That's a laugh!
Except for Hallmark, that has absolutly nothing to do with Christmas. And I happen to know that Hallmark puts out MANY books aimed specifically towards christian readers. The design company I work for just finished making 5 of them.Quote:
