Is there any sane person who thinks they are the same?

Jesus *said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.
John 14:6
Is there any sane person who thinks they are the same?
One of the readings at yesterday’s Mass was how G-d stayed Abraham’s hand after He had commanded him to sacrifice his only son Isaac. At the homily the celebrant described Abraham as the “father of three great religions, Islam, Judaism, and Christianity.”
I wanted to either scream, or confront the pastor after Mass. My opening salvo was to have been, “Father, don’t you know the Koran falsifies the story of Abraham by substituting Ishmael for Isaac as his true son!!?”
Well... it appears the priest was only taking his cue from Vatican II, with its ambiguities about Mohammedans.
Robert Spencer makes a compelling, scholarly case against the we-all-worship-the-same-G-d nonsense. But I didn’t need this article, I’ve known for decades the muzzies worship something other than the G-d of Creation. The G-d I worship doesn’t command me to murder in His name. My G-d teaches us that all of us are equal in His sight, male and female created He us, no second-class citizens in His world.
Please to note my tagline. Nuke Mecca Now!
Our God is a God of love, their is a God of hate.
Ours is God, theirs is Satan.
Allah was the most powerful of the Djiins. A Djiin is a Demon. Do the math.
You are an ignorant bigot.
Absolutly NOT! “Allah” was the “Moon” “god” of Babylon and the Pre-7th Century Arabian Pennisula area. SO HOW COULD “Allah” and G*D be the same.
Um, No. Actual protestants recognize and adopt the ecumenical creeds. That issue was resolved long before the Reformation. Get a clue
Catholic ping!
Judaism, too?
You may be quite right in you conclusion (!) (!)...
... and yet it cannot be "simple as that." If it were "simple as that," we could also say:
"Jews do not believe in the Trinity, therefore YHWH is not God. Simple as that."
"Christians believe in the Trinity, therefore they do not worship the God of the Torah (Old Testament) (Hebrew Scriptures)."
Keep in mind that neither Jews not Muslims are Trinitarians.
I am a Christian who believes in my heart and declares with my mouth that Jesus is the Christ.
Don't you?
What ever happened to John 3:16 and "anyone who call on the name of the Lord will be saved?"
Get a clue.
Based upon what Jesus taught us compared to what Mohammed got in his trances, allah is not the same entity that Christians and Hewbrews worship as God.
Yes, so how do you explain your crack about Protestants (and by implication the Holy Spirit)?

If you have to ask, you’re in trouble ...
This statement could not be more dangerous, not only to Catholicism, but to Christianity and Christians as well.
Christianity is beset constantly by enemies, both corporeal and spiritual, and will be until the matter is settled once and for all, upon the Day of Judgement.
The sort of complacency this statement would evoke might feel warm and fuzzy, but it is far from the shredding reality of those adversarial to The Almighty, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit--and they are Legion.
No. Muslims worship Mohamed and Catholics worship Mary.
“Catholics and Muslims do not worship the same God. However, they worship the same God as Protestants.”
What does John 3:16 have to do with what you posted? I mentioned the creeds because they addressed heresies regarding Christ and the Godhead.
