For instance, the Muslim believe in one god, but not as the Trinity, like Christianity. The Christianity’s religion recognizes the Trinity as being the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit being one. Unlike the Muslim’s religion, their thought on the subject of Trinity was the Father, Virgin Mary, and the child Jesus Christ. The Bible in which other religion choose to believe is written in human wisdom called a “Q’uran,” but Christianity’s belief is in the inspired word of God the “Holy Bible.” These inspired words are based on the relationship each Prophet and Apostle had with God and the ministry of Jesus Christ.…
Both religions were founded by prophets who revealed the word of their god to their followers. They both also originated in the Middle East. Islam and Christianity only shared a few similar beliefs, mostly about having a set of guidelines to live by and certain things that must be done in order to be saved.

The Abrahamic religions— Christianity, Judaism and Islam— have been at odds for most of their existence: from the Crusades, to the Holocaust, to the recent Iraq War. That’s why it was rather surprising to see the respect given to Christianity and Judaism in the Qur’an.

That being said, the Muslims of the Middle East, don’t have as much of a problem with Judaism and Christianity as with the actions of the countries that practice those religions. However, discrimination against Muslims after 9/11 in…

I would consider Christianity as an evolving, revealed religion, that has grown and changes throughout history.…
What the main religions share the most is their understanding that they must follow a higher deity, and in doing so will achieve a place with them in heaven or nirvana. But that 's hard to achieve when most students don 't have a full set knowledge of the principles of that religion save for what they may hear once or twice every week or so. Not only that, but they lack knowing just exactly how it is true that all religions are connected in some significant way. For instance, the three most influential religions in our world today, Islam, Judaism, and Christianity are connected in more ways than most parents or teachers give the student credit for knowing. One of the things that connect them all is that they are all sometimes referred to as…
