Muslims believe that the Judeo-Christian deity and Allah are the same entity.

Actually, they don't. And they think that any reference to Jesus as divine is blasphemy and in a muslim country, they would probably kill you for such a statement.

Actually, you need to read more closely. I referred to the Judeo-Christian deity, not the Christian deity. Jews no more believe in Jesus' divinity than do Muslims.

I lived in Turkey, a Muslim country, for 15 months, while in the USAF. I attended several Christian churches in the city of Samsun. Nobody killed me. Nobody killed the churchgoers.

If you're going to respond to messages, please at least read the message you are responding to. Most Christians would say they share the same deity with Jews. Yet Jews don't even give Jesus credit as a prophet, as Muslims do.

Get your facts right.
