HELP, I can't tell the difference btwn a Muslim and a Christian.?

Question

-instead of love, their most powerful emotion is fear. they both fear a god and live life revolving around fear.
-they both refuse to accept other people's faiths and intolerant of them of others that think differently.
-force is one of their means of communication: bombing of abortion clinics, bombing of buildings. threatening others of hell.
-they're both judgemental and eager to damn you if u don not live like they live.
-they're both patriarchal societies. they worship mainly the males and neglect the females: jesus, allah
-they both think if they dont pray to a god at a certain time, they will get punished.
-they don't take responsibilty for their actions. it is either god or satan that told them to do something.
-they both need to be BRIBED with a reward in order to do something "good". they cant be good just for the sake of being good. ie: promise of heaven, 72 virgins etc.

So how can I tell them apart?

Answer 1

god is based on Aton, Allah is based on the moon god of Arab

Answer 2

Lol. Nice point you were trying to make.

Love and Fear are the strongest emotions, for sure. But in MY faith, you both love and fear God/Allah equally.

As far as not tolerating other people's religions, you're wrong. In the Qur'an it states 'There is no compulsion in religion.' 2:256 and if you look into the history of Jerusalem, when the Muslims took over (without fighting, btw), they let Jews worship in their synagogues and Christians worship in their churches and didn't oppress them.

Force is a terrible way to communicate, and I don't agree at all with it.

Only the extremists of both religions are eager to damn you if you don't live like them.

As far as patriarchal, the language of the Arabs is similar to the Spanish language. There is no word for 'the'. Like in Spanish you say 'la mesa'. 'La' is feminine, but that doesn't make 'mesa' or 'table' feminine. It's just how the language goes. And Allah is actually a 'feminine' word because of the '-ah' ending, but when you say Huwa Allah or 'He is Allah', then you negate it.

As far as praying at a certain time, Muslim belief is that God commanded you to pray at certain fixed times, so to disobey a command would be defiance and disobedience, right? And logically disobedience is rewarded by punishment. Is this not so?

And negative on the statement that they don't take responsibility for their actions. On Judgement Day, you cannot say that 'I was told by others to do thus, or that virtue and good actions weren't CONVENIENT at the time.' This won't suffice. Though the devil may command you to do this or that, your soul is in your keeping alone. Everybody is responsible for his/her own actions.

As far as bribery... lol. Everything we do is not bribed upon us. Humans can inherently be good or evil on their own, but the reward or punishment is an incentive or a warning in advance.

You can't say that you never EXPECT anything for doing something good/bad. Even if it's for the sake of doing something good, it's a PERSONAL PLEASURE or the knowledge that you made a difference that you want simply for the fact that you did this or that, right?

Answer 3

You really are ignorant of the Christian faith, if you don't know the difference between the Christian and the Muslim faith. You make so many accusations against million of believers it is hard to know where to start with your question. If one atheist killed a Christian, I could hardly blame all atheists. Yet that is what you are doing. I have no fear in my faith. God is my Father and I love Him. Woman are just as important to God as men and the only ones who seem to have a problem with God and woman are the unbelievers, because you don't know Him. Christians certainly do not feel that they must pray to God at certain times or get punished that is pure rubbish. We pray when we want to and we do want to because of our love of God. All mankind must take responsibility for their actions, show me someone that doesn't. For every action there is a reaction. God walks with us through this life and that is a reward in itself, the fact that Heaven awaits us, just makes it even better. The 72 virgins thing is not even a Christian belief. At least get your facts right before you get on this site and make a fool of yourself. We do however hold to the belief that without Christ you will go to hell.

Answer 4

If you could set aside your hate and read Gods Word for yourself, you would find all the answers to all your questions.
Stop the generalizations and do some serious studying. Only then can you know the truth.
Praise The Holy Lamb Of God !!!!

Answer 5

Christians PRAY that others will convert to Christianity.
but
muslims demand one SUBMITS or they blow you up!


"Let not the unbelievers think they will ever get away. They have not
the power to do so. Muster against them all the men and cavalry at
your command, so that you may strike terror into the enemy of Allah
and your enemy... Prophet, (Mohammed) rouse the faithful to arms!
If they (the non-Muslims) incline to peace (accept Islam) make
peace with them." - Sura 8:59

"If they reject your judgement, know that it is Allah's wish to scourge
them for their sins." - Sura 5:49

Answer 6

Unless they worship YHVH and His Son The Messiah YAHOSHUA. They are pagan religions. There are some differences between them, but the differences are not so great as the similarities. Also they should be setting aside the day They set aside, which was the Seventh Day (Yes "Saturday")

Answer 7

I gotta tell ya...you don't have your facts straight. There are several of your points that are off or downright wrong. You sound like you're just an angry person who wants to go off on something. You've chosen the something of religion. If you're going to try to debunk religion you should at least study it and know what the heck you're talking about in the future.

Answer 8

I think you're a troll. You've already listed plenty of ways to tell the difference (i.e One worships God, the other Allah. One believes their savior is Jesus; the Muslim equivalent is the Prophet Muhammad).

Answer 9

I dont know any fearful Christians sorry,only happy laid back joyful ones without fear,because they love God. and they enjoy a peace that passes all understanding in this world.

Answer 10

You apparently have some serious disernment issues..Sorry that is not my specialty. Perhaps If you took some time and sought the truth you might be able to tell truth from fiction.

Answer 11

to everyone who just answered this question, all of u are biased ignorant fools who automatically believe what u hear on CNN. Islam is a religion of forgiveness, not violence. learn about a religion before you go around spreading lies.
