    The root of the difference between Christians and Muslims.

    Open your mind for a moment and try to rid yourself of any prejudices that you might have attached to the words "Christian" and "Muslim". Even if you feel that you have those prejudices for good reason, cast them aside briefly and focus only on people. No labels, just people living in various...

    What is meant when Muslims say, "The Bible has been corrupted."?

    There are two possible ways that this statement could be interpreted as far as I can tell. 1) That the words of the books have physically been changed. or 2) That false interpretions have corrupted the meaning of the words in the minds of believers. The reason that I ask this is...

    Did Christians originally greet the possibility of a new revelation with open arms?

    I'm referring to the first whisperings of Muhammad and the Qur'an back in the 7th century. Correct me if i'm wrong but there would be no reason for the Christian world to be too skeptical upon hearing of a new prophet (at least no more so than to the ones already written about). Given that...

    Does anyone really think that Muslims pray to a different God than Christians?

    Semantics

    This is something I think we could all benefit from being more mindful of, especially before we argue about religious differences. Words are nothing more than representations of a meaning. Even if we all use the same words, the way we think of the meaning can be very different. A good example...

    Do you recognize the word of God when you read it...

    ...or are you just following the religion you were born into without question and blocking all others from any real investigation? The reason I ask this is because I feel at odds with most of the civilized world in this regard. When I read the New Testament, or the Qur'an, or the Old Testament...

    Can anyone explain to me how Creation and Evolution are contradictory?

    I've never understood the argument, personally. The way i've always seen it, the creation story gave the broad who, what, and why while we slowly discover the how through science. Doesn't this make the most sense? (unless of course you don't believe in the Bible at all)
