if you believe in God you shouldnt mock him, no matter which of his names are used.

G-d has only one name.

Maybe it's Allah, maybe it's YHWH, but the two are not the same.

Shalom.

So what you're saying is that if a Mexican Catholic prays to "Dios", or a German Lutheran prays to "Gott", they don't worship the same God as American Christians?

Jesus of Nazareth spoke Aramaic. The Aramaic word for "God" is "alah".

I don't know about the various Protestant faiths, but the Roman Catholic Church officially recognizes Muslims as worshipping the same God they do.
