If Muhammad copied from Jews and Christians?

According to some Christians, Muhammad copied his religion from Jews and Christians!! The question is:

If Muhammad copied, why did he change status of Jesus from a claimed son to a prophet of God?

Christians would have been attracted by him by keeping the same faith, but he changed it. Perhap he was sent by God to change the misconception developed in Christanity by followers. Do you agree?

    he copied parts from jews and christians, not all of it!

    because against the son of God, he could not compete, but if he said Jesus was only a prophet, he could say he was better because he was alive and Jesus wasn't

    Ubu'l Kassim is the name he was born with, not Muhammad.

    he lead raids on caravans and used the plunder to keep the city he was mayor of going while he 'preached' his religion.

    this is not something a real prophet of the one true God would do

    for the truth about him read a copy of 'cults, world religions and the occult' by kenneth boa, or drop me a line.

    I agree with the statement that it is wrong to think that Islam is just a copy of Christianity and Judaism. Because for that matter, if Islam copied, than Christianity copied Judaism. From what I understand about Islam, they regard Jesus as a wise teacher/prophet and that is all. I could definetly agree with that more than son of G-d.

    Mo just humble put himself up over Jesus.. His Roman Catholic wife told him to .

    Much of Judaism and True Christianity got mixed up as it was passed around the desert so Mo never did get the straight story.

    They did steal Circumcising and forbidding of eating pork from the Jews though.

    That's about all that is truly correct in that denigrating religion.

    The moon god was the village god of Tikrit where Mo was born-- what a surprise it was picked by that humble man as the true god.

    Mark 10:17-18 and Luke 18:18-19

    These verses are most indicative of Jesus' position and real nature. The verse in Mark reads:

    "As he [Jesus] was setting out on a journey, a man ran up and knelt before him, and asked him, 'Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?' Jesus said to him, 'Why do you call me good? No one is good but God alone."

    If you analyze this verse in truth you will see that Jesus, quite simply, is not God or his son. If he was, why then would he say "No one is good but God alone"? Jesus did not want to be called "good" because he was not God. That title, as Jesus admits, belongs to none but God.

    Muhammad's religion was mainly based on hanifiya (Ibrahim's religion).

    Yes. We are all Ibrahim's followers and Muhammad's ummat.

    No, Jesus confirmed everything that needed to be known. He would have said that he was sending another if it were so.
