I have read that the Aramaic(the language Jesus spoke) word for God is almost identical to the Arabic, but some so -called Christian and Jewish scholars are tring to tell us that it's wrong saying it means somethig like "oak" - or something like that.
That's just as foolish as saying the English word, God, really sounds like the word "got". So, using the same mentality, while the Muslims talk about oak, Christians are talking about "obtained". Sounds pretty stupid all around.

What I really want to understand is why some Jews and Christians want to create a bigger schism between their religions and Islam. Islam honors all the greats of the Judeo-Christian heritage and is clearly the third in the procession of the three major Western religions. And, just like the original of the three, Judeism, does not consider Jesus the Messiah. Instead, unlike Judeism, they honor Jesus as a great prophet. Clearly, they worship the ONE GOD that we worship.
My question really has to do with the propriety of such a movement. What is their rationale???
