Didn't you know wildberries? In Allah's paradise, viagra grows on special Viagra trees and the virgins automatically regrow their hymens after each use. It's the deluxe package.
The not so lucky Paradise winners get 72 Helen Thomas's lying on unmade divans with "come hither" looks and are "one-use" events.
I was wondering how that went Viagra tree we all need one!! "one-use" is that the same as one night stand!!!

This sort of post from you doesn't surprise me. Not a bit.
Are you aware then of the differences in the arguments we have. My claims and supporting statements, which you prefer to ignore, is that Muslims consider Allah (God) of the Quran to be the same God that is referenced in the bible. However they consider Jews and Christians as distorting the message of God, a part of that message is the concept of God and the role of Jesus.
Do you agree with that above statement? Yes or no? Please, no verbose replies. Either you agree or disagree.
Your argument is that from a Christian perspective, they are not the same God. An entirely different argument as I’m not arguing from a Christian perspective to tell them what to believe. I’m not asking Christians to accept Allah (God) as the same God as the one they believe in the bible, but that from a Muslim’s perspective they are the same, but different set of beliefs based on the message.
The official Catholic Church stance (from the Pope) is that Catholics and Muslems both worship the same God.
According to the Catechism, “together with us (Catholics) they (Muslims) adore the one, merciful God.†Pope John Paul II repeats this statement even more clearly. Addressing Muslim youths, the Pope said: “We believe in the same God, the one and only God, the living God, the God who creates worlds and brings creatures to their perfection†(What Dialogue Means for Catholics and Muslims, US Conference of Catholic Bishops, http://www.usccb.org/seia/brunett.htm) (broken link).
Most Christians (over 50%) are Catholic so I would consider Catholicism to be the mainstream Christian religion.
Obviously ALL Christians don't believe this or everyone wouldn't be arguing in this thread.
Because that is how you choose to interpret the message. Just like when you take a verse from the bible and choose to interpret it literally or metaphorically.
I didn't interpert anything I have heard there leaders and seen their leaders on T.V. saying it with their own mouths!! I have not read the Quran but, the radicals are scary and were did they get the idea for suicides and killing their children? They say Allah tells them this!!
This posting is refreshing from you. Yes, I can absolutely agree that most or a majority of Muslims believe that their god is the God of the Bible. I've never claimed that that isn't the case from a Muslim perspective. It would be interesting however to research further and see if there is dissenting opinion within the Islamic faith.
It's interesting that the Catholic church through Vatican II also claims that Muslims and "Christians" worship the same god.
Obviously... I'm not a Catholic! And I think many Catholics aren't even aware of the debate or even this reality within Catholic theology. The new Pope is apparently trying to get that rooted out, just like he's downplaying the concept of limbo/purgatory and the forgiveness of sin after death that was introduced by the Church in the Middle Ages....I doubt he'll succeed.
In any event, Yep, it seems most or a majority of Muslims believe that Allah is the same god as Jehovah.
Wonder if the Catholic church is doing this to appease the Muslims so, they are not offended. The Vatican needs to step forward on these issues and quit trying to appease the radicals.

Most Muslims aren't radical, not anymore than most Christians are. It's the Fundamentalists within both groups that cause most of the religious problems.
Have you ever read anything on the "Christian Identity" movement?
By the way, the Catholic Church never does anything to "appease" people. Look at some of their positions and how many years can go by WITHOUT them changing anything. (Birth control, condom use w/AIDS, etc.)
Alas the truth rises to the surface. This would explain your extremely misguided viewpoints pertaining to the Quran, Muslims, and Islam in general. Perhaps you should have mentioned this bit of information in your first post.
