Basically they're the same. Christianity is a form of Judaism plus a number of other traditions and imported ideas, and Islam borrowed the basics from Judaism as well. \n\nTime has differentiated them to a great extent, that's why even their practitioners have come to believe they're not only different, but antagonistic religions! \n\nIf they concentrated in the many things they have in common, they might be able to stop all the fighting!

In Islam, we ought to believe in God messangers, and God Holybooks so we are really in very unique situation which is that we believe that Muoses, Jesus and Muhammed are God messangers and we believe that Torah, Bible and Quran are God books and furthermore we believe that no prophet is better that another one.\n\nIn Islam rejection of any of the above would mean that you are not a good muslim and that you are not following God instructions.

There are a lot of similarities in the actual teachings. One of the main differences is the concept of Jesus. Moslems say that he was a chosen and very special prophet of God and that he was a son of God as all people are children of God. Muslims do not believe that Jesus IS god (and neither do many Christians). They think of God as what we call God the Father.\nAnother difference is that in the Koran consumption of pork and alcohol is prohibited and that's not the case in the bible.

Wow! I never linked them together but these similarities are uncanny. The Mormons believe that God use to be a man, I don't think that the restoration movement teaches this.

No.  Like Christianity, Islam has sects.  Some more radical than the others.\n\nWafa Sultan, a Syrian-American has dedicated her life to teaching us about the differences.  She risks her life to do it.

Yes, only the doctrines differ slightly. Some muslims refer to Jewish and Christian peoples as "infidels", because muslims say that the Jewish and Christian peoples altered the work of God, by altering the bible from it's original form. Some Jewish people say that they are God's chosen people, while some Christians would argue that the Jewish people turned their backs on God when they called for the crucifiction of the Christ. But, that is all arguable and since I wasn't there, I will stay out of it.\nBut in summary; yes, they all worship the same God. Each had a prophet. Jewish-Moses. Christians-Jesus. Islam-Muhammed.

I'm kind of flaky with my actual faith, but I've been an active Mormon for a while now.\n\nI have to say that we believe in a pre-mortal existence. That we were all present at the Council of Heaevn when God was establishing his plan of salvation. Satan and Jesus both had ideas about how to do it. Essentially, Satan wanted glory for himself and Jesus wanted to give Glory to God. In order to actually believe this though you have to have a better understanding of the basic principles that under lie the LDS Church.\n\nAnd to say, out right, that the Church is wrong or that the book of mormon is bogus is really childish. There are millions of LDS people in the world today, I find it hard to believe that all of them are wrong.\n\nAnd the Bible says that the Father and the Son are One. This doesn't mean LITERALLY, look at the gospels, Jesus approaches the Father as his Father. They are One in purpose - To bring to pass the immortal life of man, but they are two seperate beings. Even if you look at Hebrew texts they use to words for God - elohim and yahweh. The reason for this is because God is no one being. But like I said, you have to have at least an undersatnding of where the book of mormon came from.\n\nI don't bash other religions. There are so many times I want to say, "No, you've got it all wrong" but I don't because I understand that every person has every right to be what they are.\n\n-------------\nTo Asker:\nI don't believe in one religion. When I say "we believe" in the Mormon church I should have been saying "they believe" My whole philosophy on life is that every religion is right... for someone. That doesn't mean is right or wrong. My friend and I have discussed religion at length and I've come to my own conclusions regarding it. She's Muslim and I am whatever I am. I used to say this to my brother, "Belief in something is better then belief in nothing." That something specific of course referred to God. But anywho, not sure if that answered your question. I'm not totally with it. Perpetually tired.\n\n-------------\nTo Asker:\nMy brother is an atheist and I find it hard to believe in nothing. I think to know that this is all we have and after this is only death is a really hard thing to cope with. Maybe it's what really is, but I think it's better to believe that there is some greater purpose for this life. The Book of Mormon has it's own set of doctrine and beliefs set out. The purpose of it is to testify that Christ is the Savior and help us understand how to live righteously. I'd strongly encourage everyone to read it. My faith is unique. I believe the teachings of the LDS church are correct in some sense. I just have too many things I'm questioning in my life. I'm working on resolving them and I don't know where it is going. Sorry for the confusion. don't base your views on the LDS Church on me because I'm far from the best person. If a person wants to know more I'd suggest lds.org and you can actually read the conference talks etc. Or even talking to missionaries. Anywho, sorry.

this may not be EXACTLY  the difference in the rituals, but the diffenence in their belief  which I think probably is more important.\n\nhttp://www.dianedew.com/islam.htm

I'm a muslim. I believe in GOD, the creator of everything, and that there is only one GOD. And I believe in all the great prophets; Mohammad, Jesus, Moses, Abraham, and all the others. And I respect all human beings, and wish them well.

see my previous answer to your similar question.\n\nThere are no "right" things about Islam.  It is all wrong.\nBut don't feel like I'm picking on you, there is nothing right about christianity, judaism, hindusim, mormonism, scientology etc etc etc etc etc either

Prophet Mohammad wrote the Quran, the foundation of Islam. Muslim means "one who submits" and Islam means "submission". These are references to submitting to God and His will. It is related to the Jewish faith in that Muslims believe that there has forever been only one faith. It just gets regular updates from Allah when needed. So ... God sent Prophet Moses. Latter God sent Prophet Jesus. Then God sent Prophet Mohammad. In Islam this represents a steady, unbroken stream of faith. And for what its worth ... Arabic and Aramaic are closely related languages. Aramaic would have been the everyday language Jesus used. The word for God is the same in both. Its Allah.

These other answers are funny.  Mormons do not only date and marry mormons.  All you need to know is we believe in Christ as the son of God- if you can't see that you won't get far with this girl at all.  Some basic things- We believe are salvation can only come through Christ, we believe the Bible and the Book of Mormon to be the word of God, we believe in our churches being lead by actual revelation from God- rather than anyone trying to interpret the Bible for us.  If you'd like to know more my email is Flournoi@yahoo.com  I have a site you might be interested in too.

No, I married him! We respect our differences n realize that as long as we r both God fearing n try to live a good decent life, the rest is semantics.\n\nWHEN will some of u people get it thru ur head that Muslims believe in the same one n only true God that we believe in!? They r NOT "unbelievers"!
