Christians: what would a Muslim have to do to convince you their religion was true?

Show fulfilled prophecies? Tell about miracles in their lives? Prove that Muslims live good faithful lives? What would it take?

Side question: in general do you consider yourself open minded?

Update:

Zee: So it's a good idea to judge a whole religion by the actions of a few. Okay, I'll keep that in mind.

Update 2:

Batman: What about killing a 9 year old? How is the a good thing to do? Not only did the God from the bible once kill every nine year old in existence (the flood) he also order the killing of children on multiple occasions after that.

    He would have to convince me that the bible is not the word of God and/or that its content has been corrupted or compromised.

    He would then have to convince me that an almighty God does not have the power or will to protect his word.

    The truth will exist forever regardless of those who accept or reject it. Christianity (Catholic Church) at least steps out upon a limb and makes a promise and a prediction based upon scripture that the gates of hell shall never prevail against it. The ultimate test is that certain beliefs have been declared infallible and can never be changed. If any of these beliefs are ever changed by the Church, it will be the end of Christianity and all religions including islam. By the way, the biggest flaw in Islam is that it does not have an earthly successor to Mohammad. Thus it fails to have a completely united belief system (oneness). Whereas the dogmas/doctrines of the Catholic Church are one and the same throughout the entire world.

    Why is this only directed at Christians? As an agnostic, I would want Muslims to prove their "religion of peace" to be true by praying to Allah that all jihadists stop immediately. If it works and there's peace in Palestine and they actually begin to act like peaceful people, then I'd at least respect the religion.

    That seems very unikely, because christianity is usually a family tradition, and in order for a devout christian to change faiths, it would take a hell of a lot. And muslim isnt exactly popular right now.. Its just not gonna happen

    haha very interesting question. Amongst other things, I'd have to request for some justification for Muhammed as Jesus' successor when Jesus specifically mentioned that until the day He returns, all who come after Him will be false prophets (Matthew 7:23-25).

    it rather is evidence that christianity is brainwash and that christians are brainwashed infidels! i grew to become into born and raised in u.s. and my father and mother have been Methodist. at some point i grew to become into in Sunday college and The angel Gabriel advised me that "all the church homes are to blame of abominations" and likewise that what they instruct is brainwash! He additionally advised me to leave Sunday college using fact it grew to become into brainwash! in any case i found some years later that it rather is what the prophet Muhammad pronounced in the Koran! So now days i'm a Muslim!

    This is what you must do:

    -go to a Christian church

    -pull out an assault rifle and explosives

    -force them to pray to allah

    -if they refuse kill some of them (including the priest)

    If that doesn't work I don't know what will

    You couldnt convince me that that religion is true but i certainly am open minded and would have a greater apriciation for them..

  • 10 years ago

    evidence, and that goes for anyone who wants to convince me of something

    I am very open minded, but that does not mean that I will blindly accept what anyone tells me without researching it myself
