The debate between Jesus and Mohammad has been going on for millenniums. Neither Christians nor Muslims believe that their religion is false. But if you want to look at it from a Historical biases and relevant information that is on hand you would find that one is more correct than the other.
You have to look at the records of the time and make your own conclusions on what the information is telling you and make your own conclusions on what the texts are telling you and make a informative decision on that information.
Jesus according to the bible is the son of God borne to the Virgin Mary some five hundred years prior to Mohammad. His coming was for told centuries before he was actually born. Mohammad was not for told as Jesus was. Mohammad’s birth was a birth of natural conception. Jesus was also claimed to be the Messiah. Jesus did not claim this upon himself. Mohammad claimed he replaced Jesus as the Messiah himself. Which are we to believe? One was sent to Abraham in a vision and wrote down in the early form of the Bible. One was written down by a man that claimed he replaced Jesus as the Messiah. The Koran and the Bible are very similar in nature but will key differences and one was supposedly written by talking to a super being andone by a normal man claiming to be the one that will save mankind from itself.
You have to take in to the fact that both religions in today’s world are the biggest changers of people living today’s lives. You have to take both religions at face value. They both teach similar things. There are exceptions to everything and religion is no different. Jesus taught from his father’s word. Mohammad taught things that were in Judaism, Both religions are important in today’s world but what can someone say about the relevance of either! You have to look also into the death of both. Jesus when to stay at the hand of the Almighty after his crucifixion by the Romans! Mohammad died and stayed dead. You have to look at what happened to the religion after both died. Islam changed and with that the words changed as well. Christianity has changed roles with in the religion but the words of Jesus and his disciples has really has not changed in the two thousand years of Christianity.
If one looks at the way that Christians worship even if the denomination is different it is pretty much the same way across the board. We all take what the Bible teaches us and use that to understand the way that Jesus live and wants us to live. You look a Islam and it is the same way. But the way that they live in today’s world a large majority want all people not of their religions dead! That is their interpretation of what the Koran says. But they are not off by far. Mohammad called for the death of any one that is not of the Islamic faith. So we have to be understanding on what both teach and both believe in. If we apply that to today’s world which of the two religions are better suited for today’s environment and world religious views. That is a matter for a debate that will last to the end of time.
Christians are not so militant in today’s world view. A large majority of people that claim to be of the Islamic faith are very militant and view the people of the world that do not believe in the way they do as heretics and infidels. Christianity has become more what Jesus intended it to be. Islam is just what Mohammad intended it to be. The views are distorted by any one person’s views on any religion. You have to be able to make up your own mind on what either of them truly is. Are they good or are they evil. That is for you to decide and figure out what it is to you and how does it affect your life. If you think that it does affect you than you need to figure out what it will take to make your life not be affected by it. People need to understand that you are only what you will make out of something. Religion is just another cog in the wheel of life and only you will make that wheel turn. The evolution of man is not finished and with that evolution we will continue to make leaps and strides on what it means to be a Christian or Muslim. We all believe in something or not. It was what defines us as humans. We all need to get to the point were deciding if someone else’s religion had an impact on the way we believe or not
