Shots outside of parliament

The two branches considered each other to be different faiths. Paisley wasn't kidding when he said the Pope is the Anti-Christ. Many protestants believe this. (Of course, many do not).

Ecumenical attempts notwithstanding, Catholic doctrine still maintains that if you're not part of the Catholic church, then you're not a Christian. If you want to understand further, try reading up on the Reformation. There's also a fairly scholarly work you might care to track down, that is generally accepted by the theologians of both sides.

The greatest irony is that Islam, Christianity, and Judaism are all 'Abrahamic Religions' and all worship the same one God.

...
Judaism, Christianity & Islam have the same God yet they hate or exclude each other.

Yeah... not all Christians, Muslims or Jews would agree with that. But from an Atheistic perspective, I can understand it - if you accept that all things that are non-existent are the same.

Christians largely consider Jesus to be God. Jews and Muslims don't. Ergo - not the same God.

[MrMarkyMark]

Indeed organised religion is nuts. I'm aware of the divisions and they are mad when there is so much to be fixed in this world.

Judaism, Christianity & Islam have the same God yet they hate or exclude each other.

Sums it up very nicely, for me, too

I totally agree with NAT

Not that ironic. Islam considers itself to supersede both Christianity and Judaism. Christianity considers itself to supersede Judaism - hence the term "New Testament".

Well so far:
1. It's an Islamist terror attack and so to do with Islam
2. No mention of mental illness, and seven people have been arrested, so not a lone wolf
3. LondonManc is a racist bigot
4. Haven't observed any changes to facebook profiles so far

Your paradigm isn't faring well is it? But your racist bigotry is becoming ever more evident.

Are you going to retract that, prove it or do we go to court, you idiot?

[PurpleGorilla]

Yeah... not all Christians, Muslims or Jews would agree with that.

More likely to be the violent ones?

Christians largely consider Jesus to be God. Jews and Muslims don't agree. Ergo - not the same God.

Christians consider Jesus the SON of God.

Muslims consider Jesus to be a prophet.

Not sure what Jews think about Jesus (other than the fact he was a Jew himself).

It's an opinion on an anonymous individual. Unless you can demonstrate that your online identiy has established a reputation, or is well linked to your real identity, wind your neck in.

People on here know who I am. Your move thicko.

Its either that or Abraham met 3 lots of God.

Christians are pretty clear on Jesus being 'The Son of God' this is reflected in the Trinity, 'O father why hast thou forsaken me?' etc. either that or all those Tuesdays, Thursdays , Fridays & Sundays being told about him were wasted. Abraham met Daddy, Judas met the first born. Christians just like the milder faith without the smiting & genocide that Daddy enjoys and hope his son will intercede.

Its not lack of education in religion that causes me to doubt the existence of God its a considered opinion after a series of life events that make me deny hiss/her existence. I don't think those that believe are fools many are wonderful people I just believe that they are wrong as is my right!
