Granted, Muhammad is thrown into the mix, and I get all that nonsense...it's along the same lines as the Mormons who give credence to the Angel Macaroni.

But when they pray to Allah, I believe they are praying to the same Jehovah as the Jews...what are your reasons for believing otherwise?



Sometimes Christians kick their own hineys by trying to deny religious freedoms to those who are in a false doctrine. They're not thinking it through enough to realize it's their own personal freedom they're essentially putting at risk.

But it is not the Mormon's goal to convert us or destroy us because we are not Mormon.

Esther,
It was more on the lines of his speech to the Muslim world as "motivating" them and not actually "inviting" them.

I believe I read that is what Hassen Abdellah, president of Dar-ul-Islam, the organizer is saying.

The bright side is that I dont need stitches, for once. LOL remember it takes years of kindness to be taken for granted so you are safe yet.

I do not believe that they are doing anything but scheduling the Friday service and Friday prayer in a public assembly area. Sort of like when they scheduled assembly centers etc in the major cities around the country earlier this week for the first morning of eid, the end of Ramadan. I don't know what was worse for BHO - Rev Wright (there's a real winner) or his stepfather's ties to Islam back in Indonesia but I doubt if there is anything political there for him to capitalize on and I seriously doubt if he will even acknowledge or mention it.

Pressing-On what you say is true in that all of the beliefs are parallel and based on the same fundamental principles going back to Abraham but Jesus is highly regarded as a Messenger sent from God whose words are included in the law of God but that the law still must be followed to obtain salvation. Sort of a very strict "works-based" belief.

Regards
