Whats up with God starting 3 religions?

Question

If the god of Arbraham is the same god for the Jews, the Christians, and the Muslims, then why on earth is religon used by man as a weapon against mankind in the name of God? It doesn't make any sense whatsoever to declare a holy war against followers of the same deity, or could it be taht God is so freaking needy for attention that He deliberately pits people against one another by telling one group one thing and then changing the story and telling another group something else? It this all a game to Him? And if it isn't, then since He made the mess why doesn't He fix it if He's supposed to be all high and mighty powerful? Or is it just all made up fantasy and if so why, if man created this monsterous lie, can't man take it back?

Answer 1

Not to mention all of the internal conflicts inside of those religions. In Islam, the Sunnis hate the Shiites. Many Christian groups don't feel the Roman Catholics are Christian, and groups even have different numbers of books in their Bibles. But one thing they ALL have in common, they cannot comprehend why their beliefs are not accepted by others as the ONLY way to go.

Answer 2

God gave all three groups the same message. But through time and the handling of people, the message he gave to the Jews, then to the Christians, became distorted. Then he sent the Quran down through Muhammad, and Muslims have done their utmost to preserve the original through the years. That's why when you have a "copy of the Quran in English" you're not supposed to refer to it as a Quran or even a copy ... it's just a translation. All translations are supposed to come from the original Arabic words, there should be no translations or revisions of a translation. So that way God's word is preserved, uncorrupted. And that's why we (Muslims) consider Jews & Christians as closer to us than others, and we call them the "people of the book" They are trying to follow the same message, theirs is just corrupted.

Answer 3

There's an evil nature in humans. God’s message had always been one, but people kept changing stuff and claiming it is from God. Not only Jews, Christians, and Muslims had differ from each other, even the Jews among themselves had differed (Orthodox, reformers, etc), as well as Christians (Catholics, Orthodox, Protestants, etc), and Muslims (Sunnis, Sheits, Sufis, etc).

The real problem of violence comes from the evil opportunists, who use religions. And the fanatical masses who turn off their hearts and minds and blindly follow those opportunist thinking they are following God!

Answer 4

ok first off god didnt cause it is was man's craveing for power that did it. Man starts wars for power and not because of God its just an exuse. In the Beginning God wanted only 1 religion and that was to beleive in him but man corrupted it and started making wars and denomination which was not God's original plan

Answer 5

Allah revealed first Judaism.Then Jews misinterpreted their religion and some of them took a cow as their God.Then Allah revealed Christianity .Then Christians misinterpreted their religion and took Jesus(peace upon him)as God.Then Allah revealed Koran and promised to save it from misinterpretion.It's man who created this monstrous lie and changed the story.

Answer 6

God has one faith, the Jews failed to follow their own prophecies when the messiah came. The muslim faith is NOT the same god but they worship a moon god, which is actually a demon.

http://www.bible.ca/islam/islam-moon-god.htm

Moon worship has been practiced in Arabia since 2000 BC. The crescent moon is the most common symbol of this pagan moon worship as far back as 2000 BC.
In Mecca, there was a god named Hubal who was Lord of the Kabah.
This Hubal was a moon god.
One Muslim apologist confessed that the idol of moon god Hubal was placed upon the roof of the Kaba about 400 years before Muhammad. This may in fact be the origin of why the crescent moon is on top of every minaret at the Kaba today and the central symbol of Islam atop of every mosque throughout the world:
About four hundred years before the birth of Muhammad one Amr bin Lahyo ... a descendant of Qahtan and king of Hijaz, had put an idol called Hubal on the roof of the Kaba. This was one of the chief deities of the Quraish before Islam. (Muhammad The Holy Prophet, Hafiz Ghulam Sarwar (Pakistan), p 18-19, Muslim)
The moon god was also referred to as "al-ilah". This is not a proper name of a single specific god, but a generic reference meaning "the god". Each local pagan Arab tribe would refer to their own local tribal pagan god as "al-ilah".
"al-ilah" was later shortened to Allah before Muhammad began promoting his new religion in 610 AD.
There is evidence that Hubal was referred to as "Allah".
When Muhammad came along, he dropped all references to the name "Hubal" but retained the generic "Allah".
Muhammad retained almost all the pagan rituals of the Arabs at the Kaba and redefined them in monotheistic terms.
Regardless of the specifics of the facts, it is clear that Islam is derived from paganism that once worshiped a moon-god.
Although Islam is today a monotheist religion, its roots are in paganism.

Answer 7

Jew, and Christian is like an open source program. Man changed the message of God and corrupted it.

Answer 8

God didnt create 3 religions, men did. Yes men could 'take it back' but everyone is too full of pride to admit they were wrong. Every religion continues to think they are the only 'true' one.

Answer 9

Maybe he was hoping that we'd all be friends, and just worship him. Perhaps if he had made himself known from the beginning, we wouldn't all be so confused.

This is where Nature based religions came from, the beginning, when people wanted answers AND THERE WERE NONE.

Answer 10

they could be His rules, not mine. possibly, He could proceed as He has continuously mentioned: "Love The Lord with all your strategies coronary heart and soul and the 2d could be to love one yet another." there is not any want for different rules by using fact God mentioned all His rules are summed up in those 2 rules.
