Sure, there are differences in the actual belief - Christianity has the Holy Trinity and Islam has the 5 pillars. But thinking about the actual "moral values" they promote, they all promote pretty much exactly the same messages;
- Love everyone (apart from the majority who are outside of your religion)
- Patriarchal, misogynistic society
- Spread the message to "non-believers"
- Heaven or Hell after death
The list could go on. It's exactly the same religion tweaked, yet people still go to war over it.
