Where is FrG?

A Muslim and I both believe there is a God, an atheist is the one who says there is no God.

Are you trying to show how impossible it is to actually believe there is no God, because you are doing a good job.

Charlie Brown believed in the Great Pumpkin. Day living creatures worship the sun god; nocturnal creatures probably worship the moon.
our experiences shape out beliefs I think the Egyptians had Ra, the god of life, love, and beer. perhaps that is all that is needed in the world anyway

Do you believe the Muslim god exists?
If not, please provide proof he does
not. That's what you always demand
of me.

Lets cut out you bobbing and weaving
and avoiding. Of course you don't believe
Allah exists, or you would believe Yahweh
and Allah are the same. You're now in a
pickle, you can actually understand why
a negative cannot be proven.

Welcome aboard..

First of all that is not what I have ever demanded of you. We both know you can't prove a negative. I am simply asking you to provide evidence as to why you are certain that something you cannot prove is true. You hold that there is absolutely no God, unlike me and my Muslim friend. Why do you believe that?

Allah is simply the Arabic word for God so I do believe in Allah. However, your point is that I don't believe in the same notion or understanding as a Muslim does concerning God. Do you see how that is very different than not believing in God at all?

So you're saying Allah and Yahweh
are the same god? What does
'understanding' have to do with it,
are they the same god or aren't
they. If they are, you and Muslims
worship the same god.

No I am saying that Allah is the Arabic word for God. This means when a Christian prays in Arabic they use the word Allah. However, how a Christian and Muslim view God is radically different.

So when a Muslim prays in Hebrew,
they use the word Yahweh? They
are one and the same god.

Muslims pray in Arabic. Is there a point to all of this Bob or are you just avoiding responding to my comments?

I'm trying to get an answer as
to who the Muslim god is to
Christians. Who are they praying
to, your god or their own god.

"When believing monotheists – whether Christian, Muslim
or Jewish – pray to God in whatever language they use, the
prayers all terminate at the same point: the one true God."
