Praise Be To Allah!

Christianity is the fulfillment of Judaism, so in a sense God only created one religion.

[Aloysius]

well, Mohammad took some truths from Christianity and Judaism... so those truths of Islam are Divine in origin, but not the whole thing. Man naturally seeks the one true God, and all men have a God-given human reason, so it's inevitable that you'll find elements of the Truth in every religion, just not all of it.

[Aloysius]

JPII is not condoning, however, religious relativism. he says that there may be elements of truths in other religions, but Catholocism is still the ONE TRUE Religion. You can't just boil all our differences down to perspective, there's fundamental issues of who God is. Christianity proclaims an all-loving person God who has revealed Himself through His Church. Islam proclaims an Allah who is Master and all must be slave to Him. in Christianity, however, He no longer calls us servants, but friends, if we do what He has commanded us. We can call God ABBA, Dad. To muslims and Jews that is blasphemy. There are fundamental differences, and no one is saved by anyone other than Jesus Christ.

True, there are truths in every religion, I dont deny that. But what im saying is, JPII is so vague in his sayings and documents, you dont know what hes getting at exactly. I mean the 1994 CCC, Oy, thats digustingly vague, you can come up with the stupidist and most heretical idea, and somehow justify it from it.

The only way truths of God get into other religions, is from them stealing them from Holy Sources. I mean geez Muhammad stole almost everything from every religion in Arabia, Paganism, Christianity, Gnosticism, Zorotarism, Judaism, Buddhism, and then combined it into his own wants and needs. The only Christian part in the whole Al Qur'an is the part about Marys Virgin Birth of Jesus, which if you ask a Muslim, who was the father, then cant reply, since it just says God bestowed a grace or something like that, on her. So WHOS THE FATHER???

And the Messiah part. Islam is just another re-creation of Judaism, except this time, Allah hates Jews, calls them pigs and ages. Which is coincidental, since this was 'Revealed' right after the Jews refused to believe in Muhammds 'revelations'.

how do you respond to an atheist that claims that even Judaism is man-made?

[quote]You are correct in what the Quran states about Jesus, and the Trinity. I do have to ask, why would we be afraid? There are roughly 1.3 billion Muslims, not all of them feel the same way. Just like their are three billion or so Christians, and not all of us feel exactly the same way towards all doctrine.

Islam teaches violence, murder, rape, take war booty, forced conversion, endless jihad, Its their teachings, if they dont follow it, then they cannot be Muslims. If they are true Muslims, and hold true to what has been taught from Muhammad's time, then they will follow these rules, laws as Divine Revelation and a divine commandment.

Unlike your christian teachings, which teach love, respect, anger, etc etc.
