Again, Sons, Allah is Arabic for “The God”. Saying Allah is not Jehovah and referring to Allah as the god of Islam as if its a personal name makes you look foolish. There is no god named Allah. Allah is simply “The God” in Arabic. Why is this hard for you to understand?

Also the submission element exists in both Judaism and Christianity, and is not all about forcing others to comply.

Oh, and, we only have your word on the idea that Islam is a sort of Anti-Christianity, the exact opposite, do you have any real evidence?

To whom?

Surah Ikhlas (Holy Qur'an 112:1-4) is:

Say: He is Allah, the One and Only! Allah, the Eternal, Absolute; He begetteth not nor is He begotten. And there is none like unto Him.
And of course the ever popular Shahadah...
"There is no god but Allah"
Again, you prove yourself a master of islamic obfuscation. Yes, Allah is Arabic for God. So what! It is what he is called in islam.

Give him another name, call him the "islamic god"...call him "Moon God"! However you paint this picture with your circular logic, the god of islam is not the Judeo/Christian God.

But in the end, when I use the name Allah in the Western World (which is the world in which this forum is based and the culture from which we are speaking), EVERYONE knows that the word "Allah" is a reference to one person...to one specific god. And that isn't Jehovah.

You mean a person is free to leave islam if they decide to, say, explore other faiths? And there are no penalties for that?
