They don't all believe in the same God though. Jews and Christians sort of do, only in part. They at least share the old testament. Muslims have a totally different God though, and totally different texts.

[–] Anomalocaris@lemm.ee 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

they all technically believe in the same God, in one version said god has a son who sacrificed himself, then Muslims built on that as well.

even though the "vibe" and lore of each God is different, technically they are all the same entity.

[–] sfu@lemm.ee 1 points 2 days ago

Muslims built on that by saying Jesus was never crucified, and someone else died in his place. Christianity is based on Jesus both being crucified and being God. They all disagree on who God is, so they can't all worship the same God.

Three people all say they saw Santa Claus last night. They each claim they ate cookies with him. First person says Santa told him that chocolate chip cookies were his favorite. Second person says Santa told him peanut butter cookies were his favorite. Third person says Santa told them that Oatmeal cookies were his favorite.

1 none of them ate with Santa and are all lying. Or 2 only one of them ate with the real Santa, and the other two ate with fakes or are lying.

But they did not all eat cookies with the same Santa.

It is fundamentally the same Abrahamic god, but Christians believe in Jesus and the Trinity stuff while Muslims do not.

[–] sfu@lemm.ee 2 points 2 days ago

Christians believe Jesus is God. Jews (non christian Jews that is), and Muslims do not believe that Jesus is God. Therefore all three do jot believe in the same God.

Jews and Muslims have different views about God as well, so while they both may believe that their is one God, they do not believe in the same God.

Never said they don't. I'm not even religious and I believe there's a pretty solid chance Jesus existed. I don't think he was the son of god if he did, however.

They believe Jesus was a man who was not crucified. Totally different.

Prophet saved by God

It’s like how not all Christians believe he died on the cross

[–] sfu@lemm.ee 1 points 11 minutes ago

Yes, all Christians believe Jesus died on the cross. That is a main belief in Christianity. If someone believes he didn't die on the cross, then they are not a Christian.

You can't just believe whatever you want, and then pick any religion and say you are a part of it.

And yes, Muslims believe Jesus was not crucified, and do not believe Jesus was divine, but only a prophet. Therefore, have a different God than Christians.
