ever realize that they are worshipping the same Supreme Being, and fighting over insignificant things such as he said / she said?
Also, are they going to lose their redemption since they are apparently losing their faith in God, which is evident in how they fight each other?

Worshipping the same Supreme Being is one thing; however, fighting over who's Almighty God's "favorite" has cost many Muslims, Christians, and Jews the ability to focus on similarities. A lot of them are all too ready to "go for the throat" and make their differences bones of contention among them.
We have our reasons why we believe what we believe, and we all are convinced the reasons are valid. If we would only live our faith and trust in Almighty God each day and stop being so concerned about who's the "favorite," this would be a much better and peaceful world.

That is a tremendous oversimplification.
Religion is an incidental factor in the wars that you see between Jews, Muslims and 'Christians' (if you call the US military "Christians"). The wars you see are being fought over resources, economics, politics, etc. How do explain all those countries where Jews, Muslims and Christians are not fighting? What about World War II? Was that a war between Anglicans and Lutherans?

The Christians and the Jews are mon ami. The muslims are actually worshipping a conglomeration of God. Mohammad declared all the other 362 tribal gods as null and void and took the aspects of three their moon god their sun god and there god of war and wrapped it in a nice neat package.
You know there is a reason the christians and the jews rejected his new revelation when he went to them claiming he was a prophet. Perhaps They read his thesis that he had a captured Jew that he kept prisoner in a dungeon write for him because be was an illiterate camel jockey.

I've noticed a lot more animosity from atheists lately. Does that mean that I believe the same thing they do?
What would give you the idea that we all worship the same "Supreme Being"? I'm not at all convinced that this is necessarily the case. If it were, all Muslims would be Christian wouldn't they?

No. Not until all are under God, the same God. They are not under the same God though. And the reason why you are seeing disagreement is because each side is saying that the other is wrong. I believe it will take divine intervention in order to get agreement. And when that happens, there won't be any doubt as to who side people need to be on. It isn't 'my' side, it's God's side.

Christianity, Islam, Judaism are religions created by man to serve man. God is just an excuse. For example, if I tell you to do do something or not do something, you might or might not do it. But if its God doing the talking, then you have to do it, there is no other option. Therefore, since faith have nothing to do with people of different sects fighting each other, that day will never come. Heck, look at Fatah and Hamas, both muslim organizations, but they still succeed in killing each other.

why is it that we must agree to get along? There will always be differenes in thoughts opinions ideas but why do those differences have to divide us? It is not just religion this goes for every war that has gone on in the world. Why is it necessary to hate? will there ever be a time when the human race can get past this? will history ever stop repeating itself? I do not care what you believe or anyone else! let me believe what I believe and I am happy. there is no reason to fight.

Yes indeed the day will come my friend, i`m sure.
It will be beyond what we expect, but it WILL come and the entire world will live peacefully, worshipping The Same Lord having the same belief.

A day will come when our children will no longer be brainwashed by religions.
Things like "Our religion is best...others are craps... death to the infidels.... kill in ?'s name, you will go to heaven..." will be part of history...
Humans will look back with shame and wonder how did that happen....
Today, just look back and think of the past... you will get the same feeling. For eg. slavery.... the holocaust.....the taliban....

never.
1) you can't know the same guy and He's both black and white (metaphorically speaking, no racism)
2) what He said is pretty important. God said "Christ is the Way" vs "the Qu'ran is the way" is a big difference
