If I insist that I am a doctor because I have read the same thousand year old medicine books that modern medicine has it's roots in, you would rightly say I am insane or stupid.

If I insist that Snoop Dawg is Elvis because the music has some of the same roots, you would obviously call me blind.

In the same manner saying that any 2 groups are worshipping the same actual person whether creator, angel, demon, spirit, man or ghost simply because the founders read the same books is rather negating the concept of an actual God.

If one man says that he works for the queen of England and describes the historical actual person of the queen and shows how he serves her, and If I say I also work for the queen, but then proceed to describe Hillery or any other person on the planet besides the queen herself in form, power, actions and character, we are not serving the same person. One of us is deceived or lying.

God is a real person, more real than any man. To say that you serve him but to actually serve a different person with a different character and teaching means that you have stolen God's name and applied it to something else. Few if any people serve Him perfectly, and some might even argue that no one serves the true creator in this day, but to totally hijack the name and smear the character means that you are actually worshipping something else entirely.

Hmmmm. Good explanation.
