It's important to emphasize that most Muslims are simply deluded, not consciously evil.

Correct.

Most Muslims I know and I know several, are very ill informed about their religion. One of the biggest mistakes western people, especially Christians make is to think Christianity and Islam are similar. Nothing is further from the truth

Christianity is basically about "truth", Islam is about "submission" In many ways I am far more informed about their religion than they are because of 9/11.

Most Muslims are just like the back slided Christian that go to church twice a year, they will tell you they are Christians, but in reality they are Christian in name only, many Muslims have the same problem

When comparing the Mo man to Jesus.

The Koran tells the Muslim that Jesus preformed miracles, the Mo man didn't.

The Koran tells the Muslim Jesus was virgin born, the Mo man was an illiterate pedophile.

The Koran tells the Muslim Jesus was sinless, the Mo man was told to repent

There Koran tells them that the Mo man was the greater prophet, but because of ignorance they never really understand who Christ is.

I know you do not intend it, and by no means do I wish to deprecate you, but what you say is moslem propaganda. It indeed shows that a little knowledge is dangerous.

Put aside the fact that moslems disparage and spit upon the Christian understanding of Jesus.

More importantly, despite the fact that they say Jesus was a great prophet, they do not in any way shape or form follow the message or teachings of Jesus. This is very important to understand: worshippers of mohammed DO NOT rely on the truthful understanding of what they believe. They rely on the shallow and completely mistaken understanding of infidels, to take advantage of the witless kafirs.

No, to the contrary, they say that what Westerners believe is the message of Jesus is all a lie and deliberate distortion of God's wishes.

They believe that what Jesus really taught were the absurd and evil banalities taught by the narcissistic sociopath they worship.

Christianity is basically about "truth"...

If I had to come up with one word, I would say Christianity is about forgiveness.

The 'truth' of foregiveness, I suppose, would work also.

You are correct in most of your statements. Most Muslims do NOT go to the mosque on a regular basis. Even muslims who carry their prayer beads have no idea what they are supposed to say when fiddling with those 33 beads. They are just something they fiddle with.

Also, you can spot a very devout muslim by the dark spot on their forehead. That is from constantly putting their heads on the prayer rug. Which by the way is very course.
