No.
Does God hear the prayers offered to idols?
No.
Sounds like you are describing the Jews. Do you hate them too?
OMG. Your knowledge of history is so skewed and superficial.
Ever hear how England was "converted" by the reformers? (as a small example)
****
The OT & NT are the records of Judah which has SOME of the words of the Lord on Ishmael!
Please refrain from trying to be the spokeman for ALL of the famlies of on the earth!
Maybe it is the same god you worship but most professing Christians and jews think you are worshipping a flase god if you agree with them.
ALLAH - THE FICTITIOUS 'MOON GOD'
In Old Testament times, Nabonidus (555-539 BC), the last king of Babylon, built Tayma, Arabia as a center of Moon-god worship. Segall stated, "South Arabia's stellar religion has always been dominated by the Moon-god in various variations." When the popularity of the Moon-god waned elsewhere, the Arabs remained true to their conviction that the Moon-god was the greatest of all gods. While they worshipped 360 gods at the Kabah in Mecca, the Moon-god was the chief deity. Mecca was in fact built as a shrine for the Moon-god. The pagan Arabs worshipped the Moon-god Allah by praying toward Mecca several times a day; making a pilgrimage to Mecca; running around the temple of the Moon-god called the Kabah; kissing the black stone; killing an animal in sacrifice to the Moon-god; throwing stones at the devil; fasting for the month which begins and ends with the crescent moon; giving alms to the poor, etc.
The Muslim's claim that Allah is the God of the Bible and that Islam arose from the religion of the prophets and apostles is refuted by solid, overwhelming archeological evidence. Islam is nothing more than a revival of the ancient Moon-god cult. It has taken the symbols, the rites, the ceremonies, and even the name of its god from the ancient pagan religion of the Moon-god. As such, it is sheer idolatry and must be rejected by all those who follow the Torah and Gospel.

WHO RECEIVED GOD'S COVENANT?
As the foundation of the Islamic faith, Muslims are taught that Ishmael was their father, and that Ishmael received the Covenant of God through Abraham. In the Koran, Surah III reads: "We believe in God, and that which has been sent down on us, and sent down on Abraham and Ishmael, Isaac and Jacob, and the Tribes, and in that which was given to Moses and Jesus, and the prophets, of their Lord; we make no division between [distinction among] any of them, and to Him we surrender. "Surah III
You better tell all those Aramaic Christian speakers that they've got Him all wrong!!! They also use "Allah" --- oh, man!!! They think it means "the Supreme Creator" in their language!!!
You go ahead and tell them about Calvinism and how they are all doomed! doomed! doomed! regardless of what they believe.
After reading the whole thing, turns out you might be right.
...Let's jump forward a few thousand years. The descendants of Ishmael are running around in the desert worshipping all kinds of gods. Satan saw that a large portion of them were worshipping the moon-god. Some were even worshipping the daughters of the moon-god, Al-lat, Al-uzza, and Manat. They were called "The Daughters of Allah." The moon-god was called "Allah." Old Lucifer got it into his big red head that he could unite all of these idol-worshipping towel-heads under Allah. He did this by appearing to a person that was already very upset that God wasn't going to let him go to heaven just because he was a descendent of Ishmael. That feller's name was Moohammad. Demons helped him write a book called, "the Ko-ran," which is basically an instruction manual on how to kill anyone who doesn't worship the moon. Now we have entire countries of God-hating moon-worshippers shooting everyone out of jealousy, just because God isn't going to let them go to Heaven. Why, it's even got so twisted up that nowadays, these Mooslims (moon worshippers) think that they are the ones going to Heaven and everyone else is going to Hell. It's a shame that none of them can read English. If they did, they could open up the Bible and find out that God had it out for them from day one. The only way for them to avoid Hell is to accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. And it doesn't look like that's going to happen anytime soon, because the minute you start running your mouth about Jesus being the Son of God, they shoot you dead.
Those that have other gods are not asking OUR Father they are asking a demon (false god)I take great comfort in knowing that when my salvation is perfected at the Final Judgment, I will be be judged by how I've treated others, not whether I knew God's name, his nature, or even his existence:
"Then the righteous will answer him, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?'"The King will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.'
