Dont muslims of today remind you of how Christianity used to be 200 years ago?

Christianity of 200 years ago was propagated by preaching, not by the sword. Christians don't cut your head off if you refuse to become Christian.

Religion doesn't change. It stays in its ancient mindset regardless of how the world around it changes.

Zoroastrian faith can't be practiced as once it was, simply because most of its Scriptures were destroyed by the rise of Arab rulers claiming Islam must be the only faith, destroyed much of its history before 1000AD. So we simply can't know more than a few pieces which don't make sense by themselves. In sum, most practice today is based on speculation of what was lost, and this varies from group to group according to how it has been passed down.

Funny you should ask. My 'boyfriend' dumped me because I'm christian & he's muslim (but in theory-not practicing). He played me for 10 months, then said we had no future together based on the muslim belief. And his future children would be taught the muslim faith. Interesting that the Bible was the 1st religion and all others sprouted from it. Isaih predicted Jesus's comming & crucifixion, were as mohammed came after Jesus's death, married a rich widow and suddonly has vissions, wrote a book, and becomes famous. The islamic culture is from an era of male superiority and domination that uses the term 'respect' only in regard to protect the male ego. If a man has respect for himself and truly loves the woman he wants to marry than he would look past the religious barriers and see the woman that he loves. Because God is love & love, hope & faith are bottom line principles in christianity not 'holy'r than thou' due to prayer rituals.

There was a time in European history where the Church held absolute sway in the appointment and endorsement of political rulers, as well as their own "police force" of inquisitors where free-thinkers and political opponents were burned, tortured, and murdered.  Wars were repeatedely fought against the Muslim in Muslim lands to distract and divide the folks at home and to keep the people militarized and the money flowing into the coffers of the tyrannical kings.  This period was affectionately known as "The Dark Ages" and "Medievel Age" appropriately.  Woe betide the man who willfully repeats disastrous history.

Christianity as a whole has more blood on its hands than Islam does.

Most Christians  'Most' have a problem with it. As they belive they should not follow old outdated rules, preferring to adapt old ones into those they eventually create for themselves.

You question is proof of the amazing stupidity of Muslims as a group. \n\nFirst, you offer no link or source for you claim, which is typical of Muslims who resemble the primitive mind set that relied totally on the oral tradition. Muslims blindy accept what they are told orally and almost never have any substance behind their claim.\n\nSecond, under your logic, you should be Christian because there are more Christians than Muslims in the world, who are also far superior in education and thus, under your stupid logic we should ask "who would there be so many Christians unless it were not true?"

The average Christian and the average Muslim would normally get along fine.  Unfortunately extremism begets extremism, and in today's climate we need all the communication we can possibly get between the various communities.\n\nI think it's ironic that in the twenty-first century, we should still be talking about religious wars.  That is something we should have put aside in our historical infancy.

They have changed very little since the first century.  Their services are still based upon services left by James or Mark and both of those services are used upon occaision.  Their hymns tend to come from the first century so don't expect any "Amazing Grace," type hymns.  If you want to see that "old time religion," attend either an Orthodox or Catholic service.  You will see what original Christianity looked like.

PBS did a series and a book a few years ago on The Day the Universe Changed, as i remember it had to do mostly with landmark historical events and scientific discoveries. I think that you would say that the spiritual evolution of mankind is more of a continuum.  Judaism would look at the giving of the law to Moses as a key event; Christians look to the life, death, and resurrection of Christ; Muslims to the life of Muhammad and the Koran. Maybe the next step is trying to understand how this all plays out in everyday life, learning what lessons we need to learn, taking them to heart, applying them to ourselves, learn how to 'pull for' and not 'push against.' I remember the title of a book from years ago, One Hundred Years of Solitude,  that races condemned to one hundred years of solitude do not get a second opportunity on earth.

The Koran considers the Old Testament, and some of the New to be holy texts. It considers itself a religion that builds off of Judaism into something new. Jesus and Muhammad were not the same person. There are a few centuries between the establishment of Christianity and Islam.\n\nSo while both are Holy Texts based on the Abrahamic tradition, they aren't mirror images of each other.

no it was christians who had crusades who killed indiscrimitaly and took their land who really started with terroism. the cathlic church burning and torturing people to convert have killed more people than any muslim nation. I am cathlic so I know our history.

What you say is historically correct according to Islamic history references. Even if that was common by the time, I would expect prophet Muhammed to change it to a more moral practice.

Well Christians and Muslims can be closer and I think Quran (Muslim holy book) ordains the same
