Jesus or Muhammad , who come first? If your answer is Jesus it means muhammed was Christian until he led a protestant group which called itself Muslim. The same way the first church broke up until today we have sects like akorino or legio maria , momons also check a religion like santeria in Cuba where witchcraft mixes with catholicism any it's accepted and they still call themselves Christians. But all said the mother of both christianity and Islam is judaism. Because the foundation of both the Bible and Koran is based on Jewish history. So to sum it up .. WE ARE ALL JEWISH BY RELIGION MPENDE MSIPENDE THAT IS IF YOUR RELIGIONS ORIGIN IS IN THE MIDDLE EAST. Politics is just things to keep the people divided and foolish and put your trust in men and none of them can do nothing for you...

Around 2000 years ago India had it's share of Africans among it's population. 'Religion demystified' is like 'humanity demystified'. And you can only start by 'knowing thyself'.

A begot B who begot C etc until you get to Jesus. Is there one on Muhammad? Or is he a guy who just woke up one day and decided to anoint himself?

Either religion is man-made or it comes from a Divine source.If it's the former there is only one law needed to govern man: might makes right!This is because subjectivity undermines everything from laws,science and the favorite "greater good".All can be easily challenged and found without base because billions of people will never agree on anything even the very concept that they should agree on anything.Well that throws out democracy  If it's the latter only a Divine Being who is beyond subjectivity and essentially established truth can reign! Paradoxically,that's still a subjective judgment

All these words have come to have meanings that are removed from each other to render thinking and conversation impossible or near impossible.

Let people believe what their convictions are, in the fullness of time all will be revealed. My Logic reasoning 1. God + believe = Heaven gain 2. No God + Believe = Loss for everyone 3. No God + No belief = Loss for everyone 4. God + No belief = Loss for those who don't believe. Conclusion: I would rather believe on what does not exist than disbelief and find out i was wrong I AM trust in GOD, I AM belief in THYSELF

Even the Jews are not Christians yet they hold the ancestry of Jesus. I therefore don't think Mohammed was a Christian. Islam roots are from the first son of Abraham, Ishmael while Jesus's is from Abraham's second son Isaac.
BBI will solve it :)

3. No God + No belief = Loss for everyone
4. God + No belief = Loss for those who don't believe.
Conclusion: I would rather believe on what does not exist than disbelief and find out i was wrong Pascal's Wager? it's a pretty good thought process.... except when you realize 'God' is your 'God' and that title is not exactly some other person's 'God' - right? now look outside yourself to someone in another belief system: a Hindu in Nepal: Logic reasoning 1. (Vishnu + Shiva + Brahmin) + believe = Nirvana gain 2. No (Vishnu + Shiva + Brahmin) + Believe = Loss for everyone 3. No (Vishnu + Shiva + Brahmin) + No belief = Loss for everyone 4. (Vishnu + Shiva + Brahmin) + No belief = Loss for those who don't believe. To him - the Wager works - right? Let's match the best outcomes (1 and 4) 1) God + believe = (Vishnu + Shiva + Brahmin) + believe = Heaven gain 4) God + No belief = (Vishnu + Shiva + Brahmin) + No belief = Loss for those who don't believe. so... we can deduce that God = (Vishnu + Shiva + Brahmin). we just picked 2 out of the around 4,200 CONFIDENT religions. how does that math play out? All Mushrooms are edible! Some Mushroom are only edible ONCE!

The symbol being not the thing, can be substituted for other symbols and meanings. But the math is be deplorable. Check on Nietzsche's critique on Pascal in depth, on the anti-Christ. Religion is metaphysics simplified via mythology, so one can imagine how basic it is for analysis and comprehension.

Just like some will call you Ma-Kales, ma-thokoma etc does it change who you are? 2 questions 1) is your God synonymous with Vishnu? i.e. is Vishnu ( or Thor or Jupiter or Zeus) God? 2) is are acts of obedience towards/belief to Vishnu ( or Thor or Jupiter or Zeus) the same acts of obedience towards/belief towards God?

When describing a cow, those viewing it from the mouth might say 'If produces interesting liquids and solids' probably referring to the saliva and food crumbs. Those from the side might even go as far as 'One can even pet it' probably referring to the sweat. Bot fresh and dried. Those viewing it from the anus (And no I'm not saying this is where you choose to be) might not find te oter two people to be very amusing! Same cow. Conjecture. You choose to argue on semantics. But when viewed in totality, God is God. He is who He is. I look at an Indian and I see myself. A man with nose, a skin and hair like me. Never mind the genetic differences. Same thing when I look at a European and/or Hispanic. I can then conclude that the God that created them, is the same God that created me. That is what matters

They are meant to refine what we're going through in the present. At this moment it would be of benefit to consider Pascal's in the context of criticism leveled against his position(s). For one, the position of logic failed even for him! Again my point is that the implements of reason may be faulty...

The god who features heavily in the ancient Sumerian texts, widely regarded as the progenitor to the Holy Bible.
