    If the Professor is still a Christian, it would mean that he still believes Jesus is divine and the 'son' of God and that clearly contradicts the Islamic version. So, what he does must mean is that they share similar ideologies and views - and he believes it's of 'social justice'. That would require some corroboration that Islam and Jesus are both for 'social justice' (as well as defining what social justice is) on his part. Anyone willing to read his book or willing to find an overview/review...?

    Jesus was actually a pastafarian.

    I look forward to your next thread "Jesus was a Pastafarian, claims TSR user"

    I feel I'm a more reliable source than a Prof at the College of Nowhereseville U.S.A

    Judaism is older than Christianity, and Christianity is older than Islam, end of.

    Jesus was too nice to be a Muslim.

    There was a similar thread a few weeks ago about Abraham Lincoln on the basis that he had a beard or something. How do you define being into religions anyway?

    Sweetheart, I don't give a damn if you think I was a Muslim or not. If you're a sensitive soul who can't bare to see any criticism of Islam I suggest you hurry along to an Islamic forum where all criticism is banned. :rolleyes:
    Darling, you don't seem to get it, do you?


    But in future, don't be so condescending.

    Islam=social justice? LOL this professor has spent so much time in the Ivory tower that he has lost touch with reality. Somebody should tell him that Islam means "submission" and that there is little room for social justice in Islam, just look at the position of women in that religion.
    HAHAHA don't even start with the "look at the position of women in that religion" bs.

    I always thought he was a scientologist or belonged to a religion which was invented after he died.

    I like Jesus because he did his own thing rather than followed generic religions.

    Why do some muslims jump on this blatent nonsense when its patently obviously its false.

    Another 'fact' i heard was apparently neil armstrong hearing the call to prayer on the moon and not knowing what it was, and then when he travelled to egypt he heard it and asked a local what it was and when the local told him what it was he immediately converted. Armstrong said himself this is a load of bollacks and completely untrue.

    Stop making up lies to try and add some sort of clout to your religion, its just having the opposite effect

    Most credible muslims wouldn't stomach this nonsense, stop endorsing it as if they would

    If Jesus was Muslim why didn't he talk about Allah? Mohammad? Quran?

    Islam began after Mohammad dictated the Quran.

    No Amount of Wikipedia can change those facts son.

    Muslims believe Allah and God are one and the same. Mohammad didn't exist then. Neither did the Qur'an.

    No it didn't it started from the time of Adam.

    Because jesus (PBUH) was trying to preach the same message as islam and he never said he was god or son of god but over the centuries christianity was changed so much by people that people started worshipping jesus and so god sent another messenger and a new holy book (quran) to guide people away from idol worship and to there creater.

    if you look at jesus pictures he looks like a muslim and muslims actually follow his teachings more than the cristians

    ...Right.
    What happened to evolution?

    Apart from that obvious error in your claim, you're saying Islam was around before Muhammed was born? Isn't that just what you believe it to be, rather than a factual statement?

    Actually the Bible (which was written several centuries before the Quran) already said that.

    I believe you are referring to the Old Testament/Torah and Judaism, not Islam. Get your history verified. Islam copied from the Bible and the Quran was written about 600 years after Jesus. There were no muslims before then and certainly no Islam.

    I know a professor who's writing a book claiming that Muhammad was a Christian.

    Well that's certainly possible because when Muhammad was born, Christianity had been around for 7 centuries.

    As everyone has said, Jesus died 350 years before Mohammad appeared and started Islam, so that is just wrong.
    There's not really anything to discuss beyond that.
