    Right-y-o, Khazraj. On the Abraham question, they believe that the chosen son of Abraham was Ishmael, not Isaac. So, while you're right in saying that they might not be blood relations, I'd bet that they all consider themselves to be spiritual descendants of Abraham. Mohammed(sic) stated that he believed that all the prophets of the Old Testament (like Moses) were really sent by God, and that he was the final prophet God would send. That's the point I was trying to make.

    Depaara. Right you are. Is there going to be a difference in the religious view though? I don't think that there is any of the types of comments against God that are along the lines of "if God is so Good then why does he allow 9/11?"

    Just thoughts.

    At least they're more honest about their motives for killing. Money, power, status, pride, etc etc.

    I will debate no more on this issue. You pray to your god if you need to and I'll get by on my own.

    Good day.
