He fooled you. It's actually the other way around. Mainstream Christians and Muslims and Jews practice what some people call buffet spirituality. Take a little of this and a little of that, leave that, pass on this, depending upon what suites your tastes.
This is how you can tell a faithful believer who believes the religious text and try to live what it commands.
They will refrain from immorality and decadence, they will not change thier morals or beliefs based on what popular culture is into and usually are standing against the tide. They will be labeled by apathetics or agnostics as fundamentalists and they will place a huge value on family.
They will also be active in spreading thier religion. The difference is in the last, Christians will go on mission trips and knock on doors handing out tracts and talking about Jesus. Jews will be active in the community and Muslims will do the same as well as detonate bombs, saw people's heads off on TV, and hijack airplanes. Convert or die. Other religions don't go this far.

They don't even do the "convert" part anymore. It's just, die, die, DIE!!!
