will christians and muslims ever accept existence of other gods beside their own?

Question

otherwise I don't see either religions leading to world peace ever.

Answer 1

Well, your question and the details imply that Christians and Muslims may never lead to world peace. But then your details show a bit of confusion on your side.

As for the question, without being detailed, my answer is a big fat NO! The chapter of UNITY in the Qur'an says it all:

“Say there is no God but only one God. He is the only One. He begets not. Neither is He begotten. And there is none like Him"

So associating other deities with God is stricktly forbiden.

As for your details, you used the word RELIGION implying that the problem lies within the religions. Here is what I meant by confusion:

The problem lies within some of the followers of the religions, not the religions themselves. If Christianity and Islam are judged by the action of some of their followers, then, for sure, they must be the worst ever, but in actual fact, they are not; both are peaceful and humanitarian contrary to all what is said about religions. Therefore, it is the actions of some followers; extremists and fanatics, who read the Bible and/or the Qur'an, grip the verses by the collar, twist them and then interpret them in a way that suites their purposes. This could be happening due to:

1. Their ignorance.

2. Their hidden agenda.

But the religions themselves are as innocent of this particular charge as the wolf is from the blood of the son of Jacob.

My advice: Do not mix up your apples and oranges.

Answer 2

That has nothing to do with world peace. And, to answer your question, no. Both religions would have to tear several pages out of their holy books, and they would end up looking like a government document. Both religions are monotheistic. The Bible says that there is only one God, and the Muslims hear "there is no God but Allah, and Mohamed is his prophet" as soon as they are born, and right before they die (if they know they're about to die). But seriously, this has absolutely nothing to do with world peace. It's the wackos out there who try to use religion to stir up conflict.

Answer 3

you cant have more than one prisident, and no more than a boss at work.
If there has been other gods, shouldnt there be a god to keep them all organised? were back to the starting point !
if there has been another god, that means there is some one stronger, and that means there is another thats stronger than both..so it should take us to the strongest one.
but people have been translating thier readings(quoran, torah, bible) into a way that suits them.. as all religions come from the same god, it teaches the same values, so people that do it thier way,take the word jihad for an excuse to slay the innocent, whether it means to fight for a just cause and exclude children, women, and elders, never burn a tree or destroy a temple.
i the same thing crusade means protecting the word of god but not wipe the population!
thats how i see it anyway, if people re-read thier books the way they came, there wouldnt be as much wars.

Answer 4

well, if you're saying that will they worship other gods than their own, thn.....fat chance! but if what you mean is whether we're willing to live harmoniously without regarding each others' faiths and religions, then i'm all for it!and i'm sure a lot of the people in this section are too.....

Answer 5

its not so much the religion that doesnt execpt others. its the people who take words to litterally, like the bible. not many people read it and say, "ok, but obvously its not all litteral, some is metaphorical" people are the problem, islam and christanity both have some good veiws on issues but overall its people who make themself belive anything that is written or they hear on tv n stuff. i'm neither, i'm wiccan and it is important for use to forgive those people who have hung us and called us evil. thats what happened with the witch trials, people took the bible soo litteraly, that some idiot could say that we worship the devil, and they believed them because they brain washed themselves into thinking that anyone who is in their religion is right, and anyone not, is wrong.

Answer 6

Go to lebanon, christians and muslims live there as brothers and sisters despite their difference in opinions and religion...

Answer 7

Will 2+2 ever be 5?
Will we ever call green black?

The philosophers agree with monotheism.

Answer 8

No, it will take such a long time, by then, people will be smart enough and these will no longer be part of the human cultures' stupidities.

Answer 9

Will east and west join up ? Stalin, Pol Pot, Hitler were Atheists and even, supposedly, "religion" melded - would peace therefore, result. Since; when will darkness and light become one ? Your question lacks logic.

Answer 10

Dude, Islam supports other religions too. In the Qu'ran it's ben said that there's no compulsion in religion, if you want to practice your own religion, fine(Surah Al-kafiroon), and such.
