Why the Muslims disagree about the starting of Islamic month which is based on sightation of Crescent moon, if one group says that the new month has started, the others will disagree and argue that its not the 1st day of the new Lunar month, some Muslims will start their month on the 3rd day of new Islam month. Why can not agree on one date?

It would be strange indeed if people did not sometimes disagree about what they see. Look at these photographs, and you will get some idea of how difficult it can be.

I think wegg has a point, although he's a bit more strident than I would be. This is exactly the kind of disagreement, with absolutely no technical basis, that seems to lead to violent confrontations in the Middle East. It is not limited to Muslims, either. People disagree about how to look at things, and before you know it, they are yelling at each other - when both positions have equal (perhaps equally inadequate) technical merit. It's pathetic.
