All religions are man-made except islam.I have come across many similarities between the three main minotheistic religions (judaism, christianity and islam) which made me pose the question,"which religion is the true religion of God?"The answer is not really hard to find!
In the Qur'an, Allah(God) clearly states that islam is the religion for mankind. But in the bible, neither Jesus or God told anyone to become a christian and neither Moses or God has ever told anyone to become a jew. So if God never preached it, how can it be a religion of God? I am not trying to disrespect any religion. I'm just trying to point out that out of all of the three main religions only one of them shows that God actually says that it is from him and that religion is islam.

Fatihah, using the words of a book to prove itself commits a logical fallacy: Petitio principii, or circular reasoning.

Somewhere in this big house of mine is a piece of writing called Astrejurbok. It contains the phrase "These are the words of the Goddess Astreja." How would you go about proving or disproving my divinity?

I have a couple of questions. Why would God want a religion? If God did want a religion why make it so difficult that there are many interpretations?

It's just an introduction. I can better explain myself if you could kindly tell me what you believe in.

Why does your explanation depend on what I believe in?

God is not the cause of the many interpretations.We are all created to have free-will. Some choose to abibde by what Allah has revealed and some do not.The cause of this is not God but people following their own desires.

Response:Well if you are a christian than the only thing I would have to try to prove to you is that Jesus is not God and that he is not the son of God.But if you are an atheist I would first have to prove to you whether or not God even exist! As you can see, my arguments would have to vary depending on what you believe in. Isincerely hope you understand where I'm coming from. I'm not trying to be a bother I just want to make sure we can better understand each other's views.

I am just wondering.... if God created us with free-will, why does He punish in the next life if we use it in this life -- and go against His wishes?

It seems perverse in the extreme to my way of thinking.
I think that it would make more sense that if we 'sinned' in this life then we should be punished in this life.


Peace, Love, & Light

If we are given free will, why would we have to abide by what God says and be punished for having their own desires?

Re:Well doesn't every have a pubishment attached? Do you believe that people should be able to rob and steal and murder as they like and not be punished for their crimes?
