    Do Muslims and Christians worship the same god?

    The latest ONN poll. I was somewhat surprised by their results.

    90% “no” surprises you? Were you expecting 95%?

    LOL

    I really didn’t figure the vote to be so lopsided. How can you NOT say that it’s the same god? The Arab people trace their history back through Abraham, too. And Moses and Jesus are in the Koran.

    See, but you’ve actually spent 5 minutes at some point of your life learning about the Koran and Islam.People that visit ONN for anything other than the humor factor would never do that.

    I’d guess that 5 minutes is all it would take to get an overview of the roots of Judaism/Christianity/Islam. But yeah, there are a lot of people who don’t bother with 5 minutes of anything.

    I’m not surprised about finding rampant ignorance at ONN.

    If you want another assembly of people with less than a thimblefull of brain cells between them, chick.com is always happy to tell you why you’re going to hell. I’m partial to the mormon tracts of course, but y’all might get a kick out of their idea of countering evolution:

    About the poll — of course my dashboard jesus god is not the same as the one those Mooslums worship.

    And what if they are? Related historically somehow? Linked back through the various layers of myth?

    If you’ve spent your whole life “learning” how special your god is, better than those other religions who call themselves Christian and, of course, better than anything non-C. . . of course the poll says 90%+ “our god is unique and fabulous and bestest!”

    I’m hoping someone reads this commment since the post was a few days ago, but I just wanted to say that those stats irritate me, a christian, yes, but more non-traditional than most i’d guess…i took a class on islamic art at my xian school (before transfering to a state U) and i can’t figure out how ppl wouldn’t think he’s the same God. its a bit absurd to me. read the OT and the Koran.
