Agree or Disagree?
All three are almost certainly man-made. Although, it must be said, that Islam probably plagiarized the most from the other two.

True. It definitely plagiarized the most. I don't know why I was waffling.

Usually someone is called a troll, whenever they happen to ask valid questions to which another poster disagrees with. It is just a convenient way to try to silence the opposition.

Christianity is correct. Many Jews did believe it and later became known as Christians. islam flat out lies. They're willing to call Jesus a prophet...but then say he lied and blasphemed. That just doesn't make sense.

Default Lets ask god?

I would say the only person who could answer this is God. We have no evidence to give any kind of reasonable reply.
I suggest that it is stupid to argue about this: if you all believe in the same god then why not find some common ground:

We don't believe in the same God, though. Judaism's understanding is incomplete and islam is just wrong.

That's part of the reason bin laden flew airplanes into buildings on 9/11. He thinks his god is the correct one and we are infidels.

Time out! What's wrong is to claim that another religion is wrong. What you should have said was, you believe that Judaism is incomplete and Islam is wrong. There are plenty of people on this Earth who would insist that, in fact, you're the one who's wrong. It comes down to your word against someone else's.
