A Simple Rule

[DeistPaladin]

Wouldn't Christianity or any Abrahamic religion fall into the same group as Islam. They have nearly the identical teachings and have the same god. They also have nearly the same radicals even Christianity has their radical nutcases. just throwing that out there.

I did say "for any religion". But yes, I often use the term "Islamo-Christianity". To me, Islam is Christianity on steroids.

Funny thing, there is more difference between the early Christianities (pre-300s CE) than there is between Islam and modern Trinitarian Christianity. Islam and Christianity, after all, agree that:

• Jesus was born of a virgin.
  
• There is only one god (ignore the Triune three-in-one thing)
  
• The Old Testament prophets were prophets.
  
• The OT god is the same god they worship.
  
• Jesus was a physical being.
  

Compare this to:

• Ebionite Christians thought Jesus was the son of Mary and Joseph, conceived the way all babies are.
  
• The Marcionite Christians believed there are two gods. Some sects believed there were more.
  
• The Marcionites ditched the OT and its prophets.
  
• The Marcionites thought the Jewish god was an inept and inferior god.
  
• The Docetic Christians thought Jesus was not a physicial being.
  

So I'm quite comfortable lumping Islam and Christianity together.
