All revealed religions have a man turned into a God at their core. All claim to be the middle man between the creator and the created.

Neither Judaism or Islam ghave a man turned into a God. Prophets yes. The prophets of Israel did not do the things that a self promoted man would do. The prophet of Islam did.

Christianity has a God turned into a man. Not just a partner as Islam falsely claims of Christianity. But the Ancient of Days Himself, wrapped in Human Flesh, to redeem us from our sins.

The things that God has asked us to do boil down to walk humbly before Him and love your neighbor.

There is evidence. No religion has the kind of fulfilled prophecy that JudeoChristianity has. Our consciences speaks to the truth. The Spirit of God speaks the truth directly to our hearts. The miracles and eyewitnesses and secular accounts of those speak of God's confirmation of the prophets and Jesus.

I see that you are an ex-Muslim. I'm glad that you could see clearly enough to get out. But don't make the mistake of thinking all religions are man made. One is not.

Perhaps one clue that you should consider is this. If Islam is a false religion, then what religion did it most hate? And I realize that consideration of Judaism might be a little hard for you, but Christianity is the fulfillment of Judaism. And Islam has hated us both.

ROFL!!!
Dude, you need to trade that crystal ball in on a new one.
I'm not an ex anything. I'm a Deist. My european ancestors were Deists who sailed to the new world to escape Christianity. It just runs in the family the same as Christianity runs in yours.

The Muslim prophet Mahomet was deified...Same as Jesus.
Just because I'm not Christian does not mean I haven't studied Christianity. I have read the Bible and the Quran and many other "Holy Books". I'd wager I know more about your religion than you. I'm not limited to the King James version of the Bible.

I am not anti Christian. I love Christmas and am not offended by displays of the Christ child and the wise men. I don't mind the ten commandments at the court house. I think In God We Trust is a great motto!

What does bother me is the zealot attitude that America is a Christian country founded by Christians and if you're not a Christian you're not a real American. Only 17% of Americans were Christian in 1776.

We are fighting a war against religious fanatics who want to destroy our Republic. It is a just war. To proclaim ourselves a Christian nation just turns our cause into another religious crusade.
