"Allah is the Arabic word for God and has been so long before the existence of Islam. Just one more thing the Muslims have stolen from the Christians.so you say, it was actually the name of their Moongod. I as a Christian will never use allah as a word for GOD. To me it would be the same as saying Zues or athena.

The relevant language here apparently is Malay, which presumably uses the term “Allah” for God as a loan word from Arabic. In any event, Christians should have the religious freedom to call God whatever they want in whatever language.
