Oh is that so? Perhaps you do not know that like us Muslims pray to Jesus and believe he is a prophet, they have a different story as to what happened to Jesus. They do know God and that by being a good person they will get into heaven, hell in the Quran is described as a fiery pit where those condemned drink from a salty well.

Muslims do not pray to Jesus. That would be apostasy. In fact, they believe that in the end times he will return and kill all the Christians (break all the crosses) and that he's a lesser prophet to Mad Mo.

Allah is not Jehovah and this "good person" stuff is not required in the Koran. Unless you define "good person" differently than most.

Actually I do know that. Muslims revere Jesus as a prophet and a man. Christians believe that Jesus is God incarnate. They may know about a god, but God is far from them since the only way to God is through the person and work of Jesus the Christ. I know that moslems believe that by being a good person they will get into heaven. Christians do not believe this. Christians believe that there are no good people, that all people are worthy of condemnation and that Jesus's propitiary work on the cross (which moslems do NOT accept as being Jesus but rather Judas) is the sacrificial death which allows [only] those who accept it as a gift into heaven. An Old Testament foreshadowing of this is seen in the Passover. Also in ISSAC (not Ishmael) when Abraham recognizes that "God Himself will provide the sacrifice."So you see, I do know a lot about your religion and I reject it as being wholly false.
