I understand that just like Christians that Muslims use contradictory comentaries that twist things but they believe all but one thing that some believe is critical. The idea that the trinity doctrine accurately discribes the relationship between the Father and the son. My belief is whatever the relationship was exactly,, living people can not comprehend the truth. Not scriptural just opinion. Do not bore me with specific scripture I already read often.
My question is why hate over something so trivial. Why present people who love the God of Abraham so harshly.
I think the war mongers have twisted Christian minds with lies. Read the Qu'ran but please tell me what's the big deal??

A bit more than trivial detail.
here are some of the bigger differences
Muslims see no purpose in blood for forgivness of sins - that is all the way back to adam + eve up through Jesus.
No blood - no need for jesus to come and die for us. Muslims even go so far as saying he did not die on a cross.
that is the key for Christians to get to heaven, It is a gift, becuase we all sinned. God only accepts perfection in Heaven.
Muslim point of view - Do more Good than bad, and God lets you in.
From moral standpoint, they are very similar, sometimes different motivations, byt same result.
Muslims only believe parts of the bible that are the same as the Quran, if it contidicts it, then it is false. For some reason God let his word be changed by mere man.
As for your question, I don't think either group hates the others. It is the small percentage in each that twist Gods word, so hate can happen. I may be overly optimistic, but that is me.

Muslims believe in the Injeel, the Torah and the Zubur apart from the Qur'an.
the Injeel is NOT the New Testament
the Torah is NOT the Old Testament
the Zubur is NOT the Psalms.
they are simply adulterated remanents of the original revelations.
hope this clears up a few things for you.
Peace.

Having had a conversation with a muslim recently I was lead to believe that while they believe Jesus was a created being and a prophet with the divine gifts of healing, etc. they do not believe that he is the son of God and therefore do not believe that he is the Messiah. If this is true, then there is a HUGE difference in belief because as Christians we believe that Jesus is essentially our only way in to heaven.
As far as hating, I can't answer that for you because I don't hate muslims.

Muslims don't believe in Jesus as Savior and Messiah...they see Him merely as a prophet. They await their own Messiah figure...different from Christ.
The only way to mend differences between Christians and Muslims is not to try to find common ground between Christianity and Islam and leave it at that....it is to lead Muslims to a true relationship with Christ, the living God!

Jesus was the only man to live without sin. He was also God in the flesh.
The Koran teaches that Jesus did not die on the cross, meaning he did not save us from sin and death. There are too many differences of major importance. You should do some more study.

People will fight over anything. Religion is just a pretense. Remember that the worst European wars were fought among the so-called Christians, each claiming God to be on their side.

Actually, though Islam accepts Christ and is based upon the Old Testament, the Christian and Jew is still considered a "kaffir" and must be either converted or killed.
I guess you forgot the Crusades and the persecution of the Jews and Christians, by the Muslims.
Strangely enough, all these three religions were founded by Jews!

The [Catholic] Church regards with esteem also the Moslems. They adore the one God, living and subsisting in Himself; merciful and all- powerful, the Creator of heaven and earth,(5) who has spoken to men; they take pains to submit wholeheartedly to even His inscrutable decrees, just as Abraham, with whom the faith of Islam takes pleasure in linking itself, submitted to God. Though they do not acknowledge Jesus as God, they revere Him as a prophet. They also honor Mary, His virgin Mother; at times they even call on her with devotion. In addition, they await the day of judgment when God will render their deserts to all those who have been raised up from the dead. Finally, they value the moral life and worship God especially through prayer, almsgiving and fasting.
Since in the course of centuries not a few quarrels and hostilities have arisen between Christians and Moslems, this sacred synod urges all to forget the past and to work sincerely for mutual understanding and to preserve as well as to promote together for the benefit of all mankind social justice and moral welfare, as well as peace and freedom."
Declaration on the Relation of the Church to Non-Christian Religions - Nostra Aetate
"Of any organized attempt to force the acceptance of Islam on the non-Muslim population, or of any systematic persecution intended to stamp out the Christian religion, we hear nothing. Had the caliphs chosen to adopt either course of action, they might have swept away Christianity as easily as Ferdinand and Isabella drove Islam out of Spain, or Louis XIV made Protestantism penal in France, or the Jews were kept out of England for 350 years. The Eastern Churches in Asia were entirely cut off from communion with the rest of Christiandom, throughout which no one would have been found to lift a finger on their behalf, as heretical communions. So that the very survival of these Churches to the present day is a strong proof of the generally tolerant attitude of Mohammedan [sic] governments towards them" .

why don't you read more about the Quaran? there is a big difference. it isn't like it is the same book. different ways of going about worshiping "god" make the "god" a different "god" because it is all about the theory, not the concept of a "god". if that were not true, then everyone who believes in a "god" would believe in the same "god"... and that does not make sense.
does this make sense?
