Each Muslim man, in exchange for a lifetime of mindless obedience, was to be rewarded after death with an unspecified number of pretty boys to bugger, plus eight heavenly houris, each more phallus-raising than the others and each endowed with the capacity to grow a new hymen after each bout of sexual recreation. The male chauvinist Muslim could thus satisfy his virginity fetish by deflowering them over and over again, for eternity. When one compares Mohammed's gardens of delight with the Christian heaven of harps and celibacy, it becomes apparent why significant numbers of Christian men turn Muslim while conversions the other way are almost non-existent.

I view God as the same God of Jewish and Muslim faiths.
Certainly Jews and Christians have that view (they're the same God). But I've heard some Muslims say they're not since Christians belive in the "man-God" Jesus and the trinity.
Oddly enough, many of the patriarchs are shared in each religion. And Jesus (Isa I think in Islam) is reconized in Islam as another prophet.

They are VERY different.
That is what the pope was talking about the other day.
The Christian God is one of mercy and love. He teaches people to forgive their enemies and to turn the other cheek if struck.
He also abhors violence and promises to forgive sins.
The Muslim god, Allah, is a vengeful god. According to Islam he believes in violence and revenge. Followers of Allah are supposed to believe that they are better than nonbelievers and that those "infidels" don't deserve to live if they don't follow the preachings of Allah and the prophet Muhammad.
The Golden Rule "do as to others as you would have them do to you" applies in Christianity but is rejected in Islam.

Islam recognizes them as the same God. That's why their definition of "non-believers" explicitly doesn't include Judaism or Christianity.
Many Christian sects do not, because of the Trinity concept, and that denial of Jesus is usually considered rejection of God entirely. Many Christian sects, especially those that aren't heavy into the Trinity concept, are more open to the idea of there being just one God overall.
{EDIT to Sway_ii} You are correct. I amended my answer after re-reading it, even before reading your comment.

They are the same. The difference is that we Christians have God and his son Jesus. Muslims have God and Mohammed.

I think they are two examples of the same psychology.
man-loss of life(manifested in insanity) from within,
needs a god,
diety is male,
cultrual differences shape god.
White man-white god
Tan man-tan allah
Asian man-asian,buddah god(figure)

I think they are the same, period. It is man's bastardized attempt at understanding them that screws everything up.
