A question for you - if Allah is some sort of Moon god, then who is the Allah whose name is invoked in the Syrian Orthodox church?

Sure bet it'd be a surprise to all those Christian Orthodox tall hat guys if they knew that one of their number, the Syrian Patriarch, was worshipping a Moon god, eh?!

Amazingly they've been calling God by the name Allah since long before there was an Islam.

BTW, don't go telling me Syrian Orthodox are not Christian.

I know absolutely nothing about the "Syrian Orthodox" church. But I will tell you this - nowhere in the Bible is the name 'Allah' used for God. So where those guys picked it up I have no idea. I do know, however, that it isn't Biblical, so therefore it isn't "Christian" as far as I'm concerned! Millions of other Christians would be of the same opinion.
