How can you chose one or the other, if you don't know anything about one of them! If you really want to make a wise, unbiased choice between the two, this is not the right place for it. Most people around here, even when they say they are objective! when you ask a question like that. Will attempt to gear you to their own believes, because we all want to believe we are right, and they whoever they are, are not.
Go to your mother for starter, and ask her questions. Ask her why she still a Christian even after she married your dad! It seems that you have a good family, who gives you the right to choose what is best for you. That is a great family. Read the Bible, and keep away from any bias site from both Christians and Muslims. I take it you already read the Quran. Now, try to read the Bible, and see what is best for you.
Christians are not mean or stupid, not any more than Muslims are terrorist.
One last thought, Base your decision on what is being taught, not what those two groups have done in their past and presence. If you do that, you will for sure leave both of them. They both have blood on their hand past and presence.
One quote:" It is good for us all, that the good people outnumber the bad one."

Good query, I recognise many. A few days in the past, an adolescent, possibly 18 or 19, was once studying the Holy Al-Qur'an within the masjid. She had false nails on, nailpolish on and so on, but she was once studying the Holy Book. How is that feasible. Isn't it 7aram, and gunnah as good? Many persons declare to be Muslim but they get dressed and act not like that of Muslims. People comply with their faith blindly. Just seeing that they had been born right into a Muslim loved ones, they feel they're Muslims, while truly, they're virtually not anything in any respect. May ALLAH(SWT) exhibit them the Light, However, I am a Muslim by way of beginning, a Muslimah by way of my movements as good.

I would wonder how they could be married to each other if they are in opposing faiths and actually follow them.
If you think that they are each truly following the religion they claim, ask yourself what fruit do you see in each of your parent's lives. Which one of them lives a life that you could most agree with and follow? You must decide what kind of life you want. Read the Bible for yourself. I hear often that the book of John is a good starting place. I also think Romans is very good, a good outline of the basics of the faith. It is somewhat more intellectual and deep than the other books. The Bible will tell you what this faith is really about.
You can't make a decision based solely on the people you see, because people make mistakes. There are "christians" that blow things up and there are "muslims" that blow things up. The truth of any religion must be found in it's documents, not it's people.

Well, the fact that you've told many people that you're a Muslim and then still ask people what you should be tells me a lot. It tells me that you're searching for something that, obviously, the Muslim religion isn't giving you. Now, I'm not trying to bash Muslims at all. I'm only saying that it's not as fulfilling to you as you would want it to be. If you believe in something, it should be something that works every which way, correct? And something that fullfills you in ways you didn't even know were possible, right?
Well, the Truth is, Jesus Christ is the only one that can save you. He already paid your debt, all you have to do is accept His gift. You say you want to read the Bible...well, what's holding you back? Go ahead and read it! I'm sure that if you seek Him w/ all your heart, and w/ a willing heart of course, you'll find the answers to all your questions.
God bless you.

It reminds me of a story publish in Christian journal about this guy whose parent are different in religious belief. Hi smother was a christian and his father was a muslim. They met in america and eventurally after long courtship they decided to get married.
The son was raised in the muslim way by his father, occationaly the mother would evangelized his son through the teaching of the bible.
The son began to sow hatred with the Jews and join the a militant group in palestine. One day a missionary visited their house. This missionary was a dear friend of his mother. After dinner the guy ask question about Jesus of the Bible, since Jesus was not thorougly taught in the Koran, the missionary gladly introduce Jesus to this guy. But the guy ignored it, and continue with his own things.
To cut the story short, one evening, since he was alone in the house and have nothing to do, he search for something to do, so upon seeking the what to do, he saw this book called the bible on the top of the cabinet, curiosity cause him to read the book.
since then. every night he would steal the bible and read it personally in his room, and later on become a born again christian. You see sometimes christ is caught rather than taught. This guy eyes was open to the truth and the truth sets him free. He is now an evangelist for the muslim who does know Jesus Christ.
Your faith is in the hand of God, if you seek him diligently, he will reveal his son to you personally and experience a wonderful communion with Jesus and the Holy Spirit.
Believers (as christian called today) is a spicie form in the image and likeness of God. Jesus gave them the power to become the sons of God.

You should learn about both religions. At heart, they are far more compatible then hardliners would have you think. You are still young enough that it would be unfair to expect you to commit to one or the other for the rest of your life!
Learn about both, and try to find what you like and dislike about each. It is possible to be one and still show respect for the other - not all Christians and Muslims are screaming violent fanatics, many are peaceful and loving people who respect faith in any form.
Ultimately, no one can make this decision for you, because it is between you and your God/Allah. There's no wrong decision - just the right choice for YOU.
Blessed be!

I don't agree with people that say follow your heart !!!! the heart does not think !!!!
I am a Muslim but I tell you , read the bible and the Quran ; try to understand them both and think by yourself who is the right way.
You need to remember that Islam say that Allah send the bible and Jesus was his prophet. the only thing is that it was changed by humans. so Allah sent Mohamed pbuh to teach the human the right way again.
By the way you can search in the Internet in video.google.com about discussions between Muslim and christian.
Mr Ahmed Deedat is a great Scholar who passed away and he has books of comparison. I can send you the PDF format by email if you contact me.
You can find many answers to your questions in http://islamonline.net
Good luck and hope you will find the right way

I'm surprised that your parents are together to begin with. There had to be a heck of a lot of compromising and tolerance for both of them to practice their beliefs and tolerate the other. Now with you in the picture, you may feel pressure to follow either mom's way or dad's way. No doubt other family members have pressured you too.
Seems like you need to have a heart to heart talk with your parents about this. Tell them how you feel and that to leave you to decide what you want to practice, especially after you're an adult. Best of luck.

Muslims would view you as Muslim, since your father is Muslim, but you are free to make up your own mind. You need to study both religions before you make any decisions.
I have a friend who is Muslim, and her husband is Jewish. Their daughter chose to be Muslim, and her parents are both happy with her decision, as long as she is content.

I know its hard such choices are never easy.
I suggest you wait awhile, no one says you have to chose what religion you want to be now. Do some research look at all sides and you will know when your ready to pick the one that is right for you.
