thats true. I think Muslms and Jews take their religion more seriously than many Christians. Not only that, but Jewdism and Islam have more laws than Christianity.

Because the Bible has been misinterpreted over and over again by different religions. The Christian interpretation of the Bible doesn't include anything about not eating pork. As for the premarital sex, Christians aren't supposed to either, they just do because they get tempted. I would be willing to bet that there have been plenty of Jews and Muslims that have also. It's human nature. Christians also believe that drinking alcohol is ok as long as you don't get drunk, or let the alcohol rule your life. There are some that think any drinking at all is bad though. Jesus drank wine all the time. It has nothing to do with thinking that God will forgive us. It has to do with being a human being and making mistakes, then asking for forgiveness.

You mean Muslims and Jews "shouldn't" fornicate, drink alcohol, or eat pork. In reality, with the exception of pork, neither should Christians. Unfortunately, many Muslims and Jews do all of these things. (By the way, Jews have nothing against taking alcohol in moderation, and neither do Christians. I refrain because of my past).

Muslims and Jews don't fornicate? I bet they do in number equal to those of Christians my friend.
And (some) Christians drink alcohol and eat pork because there religion does not teach that that is immoral. Some religions do. There's nothing wrong with that.

Depends on the religion. It depends on if you are Catholic, Baptist, Born Again, Protestant, Orthodox etc. Some of these religions allow drinking of alcohol, tolerate fornication, and I am pretty sure all endorse eating of pork. Real Christians though will excersise their beliefs according to the Bible and not man made traditions. These Real Christians could be from all the religions I mentioned above. Their actions speak for them, not their belief.

Muslims don't fornicate??? I just read yahoo.com news where they raped these women. They use rape as a war weapon.
A lot of Christians are vegetarians. Who do not eat meat or drink alcohol. I think that is Adventists and Mormons.
But to strap on a bomb or put one in a car and blow up 35 people is a lot worse than eating a pork chop.
Maybe you Muslims should drink a little alcohol maybe you would chill out. Jesus drank wine and even changed water into wine.
It was not grape juice because they mentioned about the people getting drunk before the good wine was put out.
If Jesus drank wine than it should be good enough for the rest of us. Wait, you won't drink alcohol but you grow opion????

First, Please don't generalize. People who do wrong things are doing it against their religion, not because of it, any group.
Bless your Innocent heart. If you believe that, you are naive. If you believe Muslims and Jews don't drink or fornicate. You are in for rude awaking.
Christians are not the only people who drink, eat port or fornicate. Muslims and Jews do it as well, and has nothing to do with religion. It has to do with human nature, and the inner beast.
Ever been to Vegas! You should see how some of those Muslims drink and get ladies of the nights to their rooms!

Christians are not supposed to either.......I think some do because they are living in the United States where it is no longer seen as something so bad or wrong to do. There are Muslims and Jews in the US who do these things also.....But I dont think any muslim/jews/christians that are strong in faith would do these things (with the exception of pork because christianity doesn't necessarily forbid it). There are so many types of people in the world that is why it is so wrong to generalize. By the way, muslims dont refrain from these things just because of fear.......its called faith.

Firstly we Christians marry, we don't fornicate. Jews drink alcohol, Muslims don't, neither eat pork. "To him that is clean all things are clean" so we eat pork if we want.
The Arab salesman where I work, just had a $500 bar bill for 1 night. Entertaining customers. He's only Arab when it comes to hating Jews. not where money is involved.
People of all cultures call themselves things that believers might not agree with.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but there are Christians who abstain from all of those things, just like there are Jews who drink alcohol and eat bacon. (I've got two Christian friends who are members of the Herbert W. Armstrong church, and they follow Jewish dietary laws. I've also got a friend who's Jewish, and she drinks and eats bacon.)
And if Muslims never commit fornication or adultery, then how come women are buried up to their waists and stoned to death for that very act?
