That’s just sad. every body should respect the religion of other people. I think most of the Muslims believe in are the same as the Christians believe in too.. so why argue about it?

The Muslim faith is NOT the same as Christian belief in one God. Ok, if is the same let’s go pray in a Muslin country. In public, at their National capitol. Wouldn’t happen, at all.

Actually, you are incorrect. I know that United Arab Emirates is a Muslim country; however they allow Christian,Jews,Hindus, and Buddhists to practice their faith and even inside UAE airport they have prayer rooms for people of all faiths. Remember, today was a day of prayer and Muslim do believe in ONE GOD, and please verify everything I am writing.

While both religions do profess a belief in one God, Christians believe in a Trinitarian God (the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit). Also, Muslims see Jesus as just a prophet, not God in the flesh. Furthermore, to say that the United States is a Christian nation is to acknowledge that its founding principles issue forth from the Christian faith. There is not one tenet of the Muslim faith that one can quote that is a founding principle of this country. To Caitlin: to say that all religions teach the same ideas about who God is and his character is to show gross negligence in having studied any of them with any seriousness. I would challenge you to do an honest examination of various religions before making such a vacuous claim.
