It's like the difference between the lower leagues in stock car racing (Busch, trucks) and Formula One.
AMA racing is relatively low budget, with rules that do not allow very exotic bikes. They use stock based bikes, with extensive, but still limited modifications for racing. You can have a competitive team for less than a million dollars a year.
MotoGP uses very exotic racing bikes. The engines specially built from scratch, and are nothing at all like streetbike engines. Only a few rules to keep costs a little reasonable. A decent team takes more than ten milllion dollars a year. The big teams spend more like 50-100 million a year.
MotoGP bikes go faster and the riders are better because the teams pay them a lot more. But only a limited group of riders can be hired to participate and even fewer riders have a good chance to win, because money is so important and you need one of the major manufacturers behind you. AMA is slower, but more people have a chance to participate (it's not impossible to do it on your own, which is impossible in MotoGP), and maybe win.

Bob answered the differences pretty well.
Motogp is way better to watch. First off the British announcers get excited and it gets you excited, the AMA announcers are flat out boring. Most of the AMA races are decided in the first few laps as either Mladin or Spies takes off and leaves the rest of the field. Motogp has people Like Rossi who tends to turn his fastest lap on the last lap and usually doesnt start to well, so he blows thru the field. Makes for much better viewing IMHO.

A "Messianic Jew" is somebody believes in and follows Jesus Christ with the aid of fact the promised messiah, and on an identical time strongly identifies with Judaism and Hebraic cultural practices (which for the main section do no longer settle for Jesus as a messianic parent). A "Christian" is the different believer/ follower of Jesus, one with little or no Jewish history.
