Ok, I'm Nadia. I enjoy showing cattle and graphic design art. I work at McDonalds but am somewhat intellectual. I am studying Social Work at university and it's really not as great as you may think. I used to suffer with depression and have been in and out of it since I was 14. I'm a believer in Jesus Christ and I follow Him the best I can but I am open to all religions and will not force mine upon you. :)

I was talking to my friend about religions and how they relate, and she told me that Islam, Christianity, and Judaism are very similar in their beliefs. The books are very alike, but have different names, according to my friend, and that the belief in Jesus is how Christianity stands out.
But how are Islam and Judaism REALLY different? [I'm not knowledgable at all with religions, so don't accuse me of lieing and stuff cuz this is what my friend told me]. Just because Muslims believe Muhammad was a prophet and Jews don't doesn't seem significant enough to separate the religions. So yeah..how are they different? (link)

we got into a tangent about this once on a christian camp i went on...and i still hardly understand it. but i've done a bit of research on it.
islams believe in the prophet Muhammad and their holy book is called the Koran.
christians believe that Jesus is the son of God and their holy book is the Bible.
Jewish people believe that Jesus is NOT the messiah and believe the son of God is still yet to come. Their Holy book is the Torah.
they're the basics...firstly, i'm sorry if i offended anyone by spelling any thing wrong or getting anything at all wrong, this is just to my knowleage.
these sites you might find helpful:
http://www.mnsu.edu/emuseum/cultural/religion/judaism/beliefs.html
http://www.mnsu.edu/emuseum/cultural/religion/islam/beliefs.html
on each page there is a 'statement of faith' just like christians have, so have a read of them and that should explain everything. if you have any more questions i'll be more than happy to go on a bit of a tangent with you!
