Advocates of Chrislam point to facts such as Jesus being mentioned 25 times in the Qur’an, or Christianity and Islam having similar teachings on morals and ethics, or the need for the two largest monotheistic religions to unite to fight against the rise of atheism and alternative spirituality. Chrislam is viewed by some as the solution for the ongoing conflict between the Western world, which is predominantly Christian, and the Middle East, which is predominantly Muslim.
While it is undeniable that there are many similarities between Christianity and Islam (and Judaism, for that matter), Chrislam ultimately fails because Christianity and Islam are diametrically opposed on the most important of issues – the identity of Jesus Christ. True Christianity declares Jesus to be God incarnate. For Christians, the deity of Christ is a non-negotiable, for without His deity, Jesus’ death on the cross would not have been sufficient to be the atoning sacrifice for the sins of the entire world (1 John 2:2).
Islam adamantly rejects the deity of Christ. The Qur’an declares the idea that Jesus is God to be blasphemy (5:17). Belief in the deity of Christ is considered shirk (“filth”) to Muslims. Further, Islam denies the death of Christ on the cross (4:157-158). The most crucial doctrine of the Christian faith is rejected in Islam. As a result, the two religions are absolutely not compatible, making Chrislam a concept both Christians and Muslims should reject.
Some current proponents of Chrislam are Rick Warren, Rev. Jeremiah Wright, late Robert Schuller, Glen Beck, Tony Campolo, Brian Maclaren, Joel Osteen, and Pope Francis. Chrislamic people themselves see no problem with the basic unity of the two religions, because they say that God loves all people and wants us to love all people.
President Obama's former pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright is quoted as saying, “I made it [Chrislam] comfortable for him [Obama] to accept Christianity without having to renounce his Islamic background.”
Because she sees only oppression when she looks at the burkad ones. She sees herself as oppressed. That explains it.
Her America-hating mind classifies people as oppressor and oppressed. White and Black.
Michelle loves being a victim. When she can’t be one, she will identify with anyone she perceives in her tiny mind to be a victim.
Compromise and religion are poor bedfellows.
A black potatoe (alternate Quayle spelling) sack with two eye holes?
I see myself?
I will not accept anything spoken by Micheal/Michelle Obama.
He/she/it does not speak for me, nor do I give my consent on the matter.
And I sure hope there won't be another one coming.
Can you believe this ego? She goes to Britain and makes it all about her, or at least all about the story she likes to tell about herself as a poor, oppressed black woman who was strong enough to Overcome -- Hallelujah!
When I look at Michelle I see Bruce Jenner.
What? She had a solid middle class upbringing and went to the finest schools, largely because of her race. She married a man who became Senator and thus got a 300K no-show job. She's had a softer life than 99% of the people in the world. So what "struggle" could she possibly be referring to?
Given that “her”
husband is a Moslem, she would see things that way.
The Moose is a muzzie too?
Dumbass fool...
British Museum, or the London Zoo?
Cool. I suggest she stay over there and get to know them even better.
If only she had done the right thing and told them” “Take those rags off your heads and assimilate.”
The Obamas whole “this reminds me of me” thing is so ridiculous it’s beginning to appear they do it just to get a rise out of us.
