Muslims believe Christ was a prophet sent from God to teach mankind. They believe that He was not the Son of God however. Muslims do not believe in a Tiune God as do Christians. They believe someone else was switched for Him and died in His place because God would never let one of His prophets be crucified. They also believe that Mohammad was the last prophet - the Seal of the Prophets. That after him no prophets could possibly come. Yet we have so-called "Black" Muslims who believe Elijah Mohammad was a prophet. People can find all kinds of ways to justify what they believe is correct.

Even if you are an atheist or agnostic - you should read some theological history. Its amazing what people can find to kill each other over and equally amazing how they can totally miss a message.

I've read a lot of history. What is Tiune? The part I don't get is that Christ's primary message was clear: "I am the Son of God" The revelance of everything else he said depends on that. How do they look on a prophet whose primary prophecy they consider a lie? What's the point?
