Default Re: when talking about islam

Methinks islam is closer to judaism then christianity.

in terms of historical cultural bonds, this is definitely true.

obv islam and christianity aren't the same religion, so you can differentiate between them based on substance and what not. However, demagogues in our society say "allah" instead of "god" because if we acknowledge that muslims believe in god it makes them seem too much like ourselves.

purely imo and stoking the fires of discussion

but i think what really started this was when i heard that general guy a few years back say that we'll win in iraq because our god is bigger than their god. its the same god.
