"
They really are the same religion - of Abraham (the father of all monotheistic religion, namely Judaism, Islam, and Christianity).
The Aramaic name for "god" is Elah. Sounds like Allah, right? Jesus supposedly spoke Aramaic."
It always slays me when people say that, that Christianity and Islam are the same. Here are some interesting tidbits for those who actually believe that:
1. Christianity holds that Jesus is the Son of God; Islam denies this.
2. The God of the Bible, Yahweh/ Jehovah, refers to the Jews as His chosen people; The Allah of the Koran hates Jews, was known for turning them into rats, pigs, and monkeys, and encourages Muslims to kill them on sight.
3. Christianity teaches us to love thy neighbor, including those who are different from yourself, and even your enemies; Islam teaches its practitioners to "Slay the infidels wherever you find them."
Boy, Christianity and Islam sure do sound like the same religion, don't they?
Idiots.
