Re: Are Islam and Christianity diametrically opposed?

It is NOT from the OT. The quote is from the book of Philippians, which is in the NT. Incidentally, I must apologize for a typo in my original post. Sentence #6 should read: " There is no room for the belief that He was a prophet".

They're extremely similar. They're not opposed at all. However, one of the similarities is that they both want to dominate every facet of the world around them, and neither is capable of sharing.



In most Christian countries, "convert or die" is the norm. It's only in secular nations where religious violence is actually stopped and Christianity isn't allowed to impose itself that it turns into "good news".

Yeah, you hit it right there. It's the extremists from both sides that are so territorial and have warred for so long. It's all about fear and alleged domination of the soul, and has always played to the ignorant forelock tuggers. So, there's nothing new these days either.

Hi Athrawan, welcome. I should say that it is customary here to use the "reply with quote" feature, as it shows to whom and what you are responding. It just makes it easier for others to follow your discussion.

Thanx. I had no idea. I'll try it out with this reply.
