When 138 senior Muslim scholars and clergy tried to establish the common ground between Islam and Christianity last year, they said the very peace of the world hung on the outcome.

“Their letter, A Common Word, cited passages from the Koran which the scholars said showed that Christianity and Islam worship the same God, and require their respective followers to show each other particular friendship.”

Christians are not REQUIRED to do anything per the Koran.
If Muslims were honest about getting along with us then they can start by ceasing to force their ALLAH on us !

While Islam is Abrahamic in nature, there are fundamental differences in their understanding of God and his interaction with man. A God that would willingly subject himself to torture and death to redeem all of mankind is so foreign to Islam's understanding of God.

But we should still seek out our common ground without compromsing Truth. I have no worries about the Pope. He will do what is right and based on revealed Truth.

Would this mean that Christians would have to start chopping off the heads of little school girls as part of their religion like muslims do?

[NavVet]

When the Pope hesitated, they threatened to cut off his head. If I were the Pope, I would say, when I see the first church open it's doors in Mecca, come talk to me.

Good 'point'. . .and is there a 'major religion' that believes in God; that does not share the idea of loving one's neighbor and 'in balance'?

And yes, their very dictum; tips the scales. . .
