It was the Catholics who made war against the Judaic Christians. (Protestant Christians)

Lol, read up mate :)
Church history is a tad more nuanced than that. There were many factors playing a part in the protestant revolt. Some were religious (indulgence mainly), but the majority had to do with politics of the time.

Buddhists recite the name of Buddha or pray to Buddha. Ancient pictures of Buddha show him with a halo, which means that Buddha was thought of as a god.
Not this Buddhist.

Recitation of the name of the Buddha is a form of autosuggestion used as a skillful way of improving one's self. Recalling the Buddha is to recall his qualities as an ideal in the mind, and draws one's self towards that direction.

The halo of the Buddha represents his enlightenment, not that he was a god. In fact, he was considered superior to the gods.

Mohammad who is an instance of the name of God, being one the beautiful names that belongs to God, like Samuel (name means name of God), not only knew God, but is the means and way to God like Jesus.

And the theme of Yahweh is there in Quran but I don't have time to explain everything and am not meant to. Rather you are to seek the family of the reminder to compliment your study of the Quran. And don't put terms of ignorance nor limitations to texts.

And woe to those who take the name of God for themselves like the generations leading to Noah, with no proof from God of their moral leadership nor proof they have deep or accurate knowledge of the book nor being representatives of the Prophet.

Will you seek other then God and his guidance for guidance, will you center your attention to teachers to teach you what his appointed teachers taught or will you forsake impure streams for those rivers of life that are reliable means of enlightenment and center your attention to those who God meant you to rely on as Authorities and reliable means of knowledge.

Allah is Satan.His followers deny that Jesus is God in the Flesh...... “A” son of god as opposed to “ THE “ Son Of God——- just enough of a little twist to send you to Hell. Allah’s subtle plan.Satan was “ subtle” in The Garden of Eden....some things never change....

dude, allah is the arabic name for god. christians in middle east use the name "allah".

Islam is a conquest for the world, that also is the reason for all of the factions in Islam; it is for the power and booty.

Superior to the gods means that he was thought to be the supreme God.

No, since he is thought to have gone beyond all attachments, action, and personhood (traits all associated with various gods).

Without personhood, activity, or attachments, I don't see how it is proper to use the term "God" to describe him.

"Allah" is no more a name than "Dios" is a name.
Both simply mean "God", which is not a name.
-
I've read that "Ilah" is the generic word for "god", whereas "Allah" is a title which can only refer to one being - the one true god (i.e. the Islamic god).

If Mohammad was a prophet, then how come he did not know the name of God?

There is nothing greater than God.

First: that doesn't seem to line up with Omnipotent Love to "send those to hell" based on them being conned.

Second: Palestinian Christians call God "Allah". Allah means God in the Arabic language:'We Palestinian Christians say Allahu Akbar'

The halo is of an enlightened being, not of a god.

Not quite. It means that the state of mind that the Buddha points towards is superior to our human images, beliefs, concepts and dogma's that we have about God.
