Are you kidding? Some people DEFINE THEMSELVES on there being a difference. They won’t stop until all of scientific progress ceases and bows its collective head to Biblical teachings. You know, like islam.

Christians and Muslims are alike? Do you really mean to say this?

fervently religious people are alike in many ways, the system matters not. one analogy would be young filipino men flagellating themselves with steel barbs attached to leather strips to commemorate the passion of the christ, and the day of ashura a shiite muslim holy day where young shiite men do the same while honoring the martyrdom of ali.

1 Cor 2:14
The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned.

We shouldn’t expect the atheist to see the truth, and we should expect him to see all religions as the same.
