Islamic or Muslim started about 7th century AD with the teachings of Muhammed. It is an off spring of Judeaism or Jewish and Christianity religions. These were originated by Abraham, the father of many sons including Issac and Ishmel.



PS... Go to my post about "Why didn't Jesus write ANY books of the bible?" for a bit of history on religions.

Ironically there are a great many similarities between the bible and the Koran....with the exception of the Koran calling all whites "Devils"....both are pretty much....be willing to die for the cause....we will love you in heaven unconditionally, unless you reject the faith then you will BURN IN HELL for eternity. A lot of similarities.

Think about this one.

Why would someone who loves a so called Islamic God be any less closer to God than your average Christian or Jew?

What some people tend to not want to admit is that there are various avenues to loving God, to being close to God.

If you disagree, fine.

I have no problem with that.



Edit: Oh yeah, by the way. I do believe in God. But I also believe that a lot of people of "faith" are hypocrites........in terms of what they say they believe and how people should live, and how they live.

hey guys,
islam is just another religion created by men and women who wish to control others. In every religion the good and the bad are the same. They all preach "love God but do as I say".
Me, I am very spiritual. I believe that God is within me and has no race, religion nor creed. When you connect with the good that is within you, there is no barrier between you and God.

"so I got curious to know what people think or know about islam????"

Not so curious as to actually doing some real study on the subject!

Read the Quran! Read some books critical of it. Read some apologists works!

A google returns nearly 13 million hits! There may be information within that also!!!

I have heard that before. But you better watch these christians don't like being told their bible talks of killing other people. Even if it s true.
