Jews/Muslims do not worship any human as a god. So to say we worship the same god as Christians, is to say we worship a human? or a 3 headed deity?

Where did the 3 headed deal come from? How could a being be three seperate minds yet be part of one?
As for worshipping Jesus as god, he for certain is human by your own books, else how could he die?

No, we worship the same God, we only perceive him differently.

God is Spirit and to understand Him and His word, you must worship in Spirit too, doesn't really matter how we explain it, if you are not one of His children...you won't really understand. ((No offense.))
Christians worship the Living God (Father) His Son Jesus (who is God in the flesh and beat the grave!!!) and the Holy Spirit (God's Spirit in us). This is the trinity. Three in one...not three heads. We only have one God and that is the Living God. He is Spirit and therefore without a body.
By accepting Jesus as our Savior and Lord, we live under Grace in the New Testament (New Covenant) of the Holy Bible but still learn the principles of the Old Testament.
Hebrew / Judeo roots (Jews) worship the same Living God and they believe in the Holy Spirit also. The Torah is the Old Testament of the Holy Bible.
So... Christians and Jews worship the same Living God. Now the difference is that some Jews do not accept that Jesus is the Messiah. They believe He is a great prophet, but not the Messiah as we Christians know to be true!
Islam is a false religion with a dead god. Allah is not the Living God of the Jews and Christians. Anyone that says otherwise...is WRONG. If their god were, they would be studying the Holy Bible not the Qu'ran.
JESUS ROCKS!

No, and Judea-Christians do worship Jesus. Jesus is God and God is a spirit no longer human. Say what you want but don't get it twisted! Muslims worship a false deity and cannot be compared to Christianity at all. Jews have converted to Christianity because of spiritual realization. Try it!

God has no head, no arms, no legs. God is a spiritual being. God says "My ways are higher than your ways, and my thoughts higher than your thoughts." (Isaiah).
There is one and only one God. He is everywhere, He is all-powerful.
God has the power to do whatever He wants. If He chooses to come to earth in a physical form, He can. Do you deny God's power?
Christianity has never claimed that God has "3 heads." This is a perversion of the truth, a false claim, the rhetoric of the misguided Muslims. It is the same as if someone said "The Muslim God permits pornography. Does this mean Christians and Muslims worship the same God." It is not true.
Every human has sinned. You can only be made perfect through God's grace and love through Jesus's sacrifice.

The trinity - One God, three unique personalities.
The Father - the creator
The Son - One in being with the father, begotten not made. If you refer to the book of John: In the beginning was the word (Jesus), and the word was with God, and the word WAS God.
The Holy Spirit - who proceeds from both the Father and the Son.
The jewish people and the islamic people along with the christians are monotheists. Being that: we all believe that there is only one God. Jewish people believe in the messiah/Christ, but they don't believe Jesus is him. So they are still waiting. Muslims don't believe God would take human form. They don't believe he would punish someone as great as Jesus and that it was actually a look-alike on the cross. Some say it was Judas. Although they do believe Jesus is the messiah, and he will return someday. Only to condemn all the christians and all those who didn't bow to Allah.
The arguments between the jewish people, the islamic people, and the christians is not that there is only one God. It is how they percieve that one God.
A muslim once noticed me saying my prayers and that I was catholic (we were sharing a room). I left him alone to pray, even though he woke me up in the middle of the night by his loud praying. He tried to argue with me and possibly convert me. He told me that: There is only one God. I agreed. He said there will be a day of judgement. I agreed. Not much to argue about is there?

Where are you getting your information? Before you go spouting off about other people's beliefs, I think you ought to read up about it a little bit first. True Christians believe in only one, God. We do not worship any human, and to do so would be to break God's very first commandment. And if you are referring to Jesus, he is not human. And where are you getting this stuff about a 3 headed deity? What in Christianity has three heads? I think someone just wants a little attention and to try and start stuff.

No no no. See you have it all wrong. The trinity is three in ONE. We worship ONE God. The holy spirit is what links us together on earth, if you want to give it a body, you could say it is God's arm, but the 'spirit' IS God. Jesus was made of God, or something like that. And God lived through Him. So it's basically still one God.

We all worship the same God. Christians view that God as 3 separate persons.

This is actually polytheism under a different name. Notice that saints were created by the early church to make it Roman friendly. (Romans had many Gods.)
The Christian version of the Bible is a cannon. That's not a big gun with a cannon ball. It means that the contents were decided by majority vote by church officials. There are many works being uncovered that the church EDITED OUT OF THE BIBLE. At the least, parts of the Hebrew Bible have been taken out of the Old Testament.
THESE THINGS WERE DECIDED BY HUMAN BEINGS.
