    Ignore that last mess of information..

    those three religions supposedly worship same God... First Came the Jews... they had moses.. their book is the torah... then, one day.. Jesus came... The Jews said no, you are not from God or God.. you know what happened next.. Then the Christians Started their own religion and their own set of holey books based on Jesus's life... Then, another guy named mohammed came along.. he said he was a prophet of God..The Christians and jews said.. i don't think so.. you are a fake... anyway.. his followers became known as the muslims.. has nothing to with the MOOON... Islam in arabic means peace.. has nothing to do with the moon... Moving on... The muslims have the quran... The muslims believe in same God as Christians and Jews... but they do not use same holey book...

    MAIN POINT...don’t' listen to what crazies out there say... All three have same god... but all look at things differently... Jews dont believe in jesus, the are still waiting for him to come... The Christians believe Jesus is either God or the son of god and they do not believe that mohammed has anything to do with God... that he's a false messenger.. The muslims believe in Moses and Jesus.. but only as prophets of god... and They believe they believe in Quran only as source of information about God..

    They should all just really learn to get along with one another.... you can't be religious and full of hate at the same time...

    Christianity has its roots in Judaism. Christians worship the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

    Islam was a polytheistic religion until Mohammed changed it to only one god, the moon god, Alah. That is where we get the term "Moo-slem" (the correct pronounciation). This is also why they have the crescent moon on top of their spires.

    Yes... Christianity technically during Christ's life, Islam came after... not sure exactly when.
