Christianity is synthesized from older religions. Most of the shit in the bible is borrowed from ancient religions, thus, it is not new nor original.
Those who go to church performs rituals that were performed thousands of years before Christianity became an organized religion. The christians just stole the old rituals and claimed to have invented them.
Islam is the same thing. It is just concepts found on many other religions + some new shit, synthesized into a new name "Islam".
BWHAHAHAHAHA.
Those who buys into their religion should know that the stuff they believe in is a collection of shit found here and there. Brutal lack of knowledge about religious history.
Faith in something beyond ourselves is good.
Believing blindly in a religious doctrine is pure and utter stupidity.
you are correct, in fact many of the rules and laws from both the OT and NT were taken from earlier "Pagan" stories. Hell, the Exodus story of Moses and a Syrian precursor whose name was Mises for Christs sakes |

Well, with the current administration failing on so many levels, the new president and vice president will have to struggle to make the country turn in the right direction. With that said, many possible candidates are starting to make their feelings known.
Here is what I would like to see. I am going to list candidates for both parties, and you pick your Pres/VP team that you would like to see win. I will give my choice at the end;
Democrats Republicans
Joe Biden Sam Brownback
Hillary Clinton John McCain
Barack Obama Rudy Giuliani
John Kerry Duncan Hunter
Joh Edwards Jim Gilmore
Wesley Clark Mitt Romney
Tom Vilsack Tommy Thompson
Dennis Kuchinich Chuck Hagel
Bill Richardson Newt Gingrich
Christopher Dodd Mike Huckabee
My choice:
Pres: Joe Biden
VP: Wesley Clark
Fire Away

Lol first of all how can jesus have been a christian at the time, think of the word christian, it is derived from the word christ, second both muslims and christians believe he was a prophet, although the reaction of the jews 2 the message of jesus was overly harsh, and you cant call him a jew because the word didnt exist at the time, he was a servant of god and thats flat (from a muslim and jews perspective)
Actually you are right and wrong. There were no christians then, however he would have been known as a Hebrew Nazarene. This is where the term Nazareth comes from. It is a misquote or mistranslation. The funniest thing is that Nazareth was not a city name at that point |

Jesus was sent to offer us Gentiles away into heaven. The Jews believe that Christ was nothing more than another prophet.
To be a Christian you must accept Jesus as lord god and that he came down to earth to forgive your sins. Life, death and resurrection.
Jews don't believe this. This is something that Muslims and Jews share.
Correct, however this was not at the heart of Jesus' teaching. In fact, all Jesus was really trying to do was to make changes to the Jewish heirarchy. He was none too pleased with how "polluted" temple politics had become. So, in the end those in power complained, and luckily for them the Romans were annoyed by him as well. Now depending on whose story you believe, some say he was crucified, Muslims believe it was a sham (per the Qu'ran) and others think it is all a stolen story like much of our modern monotheism (ie: ten commandments). Hope this helps |
