Some goons overreact. Go figure.

Nobody is saying that the faiths and their tenets are identical, that's patently absurd without even getting into various sectarian differences. But by the same token it's absurd to deny the Abrahamic faiths have anything in common, and I provided sources from a few people far better qualified than me who agree that if nothing else, it's ultimately the same God.

(Comedy answer: Muslims obviously believe in the Moon God.)

The difference may seem small but on further investigation the implications of the event surrounding the execution of Jesus of Nazareth is what makes the difference. These links you have shared are a literary, not theological reading of the differences. I have already spoken of the Nicene Creed as an example. Christians believe Jesus is God. Muslims believe he is a prophet. Jews reject both interpretations of Jesus. The crucifixion is where the huge gulf of difference lies. These texts you have shared do not address this issue. They look to literary descriptions; what "type" of God God is. This is not the same as describing the nature of God. If Jesus was a prophet, as the Muslims claim, then he is committing heresy against Allah when he says "No one may come to the Father except through me". As already pointed out, Sunni Islam teaches righteousness comes from good deeds and following the Five Pillars. This is in complete contradiction to the protestant doctrine of salvation by faith, or more broadly, of the "fallen nature" of humans.

The similarity between the religions as pointed out in your links are not actually religious. The "common theme" of the nature of God as argued in these links is what all people have inside them. C S Lewis called this the "Moral Law"; the thing inside us telling us to hold to what is good and to reject what is evil. Simply listing a number of attributes that any reasonable human would accept is righteous does not a theological agreement make.

I think I'll side with the studied opinion of the multiple professors of religion previously cited, thanks

And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.

And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

ahhh fuck its the rats again
Mr Dutton’s legal advice (posted below) is dated December 4, 2017. The changes to law, which could make Mr Dutton ineligible to sit in Parliament, were brought into effect on July 2, 2018.

Constitutional law expert Anne Twomey, from the University of Sydney, writes in The Conversation: “Dutton, as recorded in the parliamentary register of interests, is the beneficiary of a discretionary family trust.”

“The allegation is that since July 2, 2018, the trust, through its childcare centres, has agreements with the public service to provide childcare services in exchange for childcare subsidies.

“Dutton may argue the childcare centres merely receive the subsidy on behalf of the parents and do not have an agreement with the public service. But if it is found there is such an agreement, it would appear Dutton has a beneficial interest in a trust that has an agreement with the public service, potentially triggering the application of s 44(v).”

Federal Labor is pushing for a parliamentary inquiry into Mr Dutton’s decision to intervene and grant visas to two foreign au pairs in 2015.

Opposition senator Louise Pratt will try to refer the matter to the upper house’s legal and constitutional affairs committee on Thursday, as Mr Dutton ramps up his bid to challenge Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull.

If the Senate votes to refer the matter, the inquiry will look into allegations concerning the inappropriate exercise of ministerial powers and report by September 11.

It's not that they don't all have things in the past which are common, but the conclusions reached today are different, and are so different, that to try and make them the same for the sake of (???) runs into religious discrimination. It's like saying Australia is the same as the UK because once upon a time we shared the same national objectives.

Climate change isn't real because I found a dissenting opinion that agrees with me. Or another way: I have a medical illness, so I went to see a plumber for a cure. Please don't fall under the assumption that this is a new argument. There have been many attempts to reconcile the different ideas of how God has been revealed to humans. The differences between the religions is the result and are also the sources available that support my argument. However, since you were so good as to ask:

First council of Nicaea (specifically, "homousias" to describe the relationship between Father and Son) : https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Council_of_Nicaea

Islam's rejection of the death and resurrection and the absence of Pentecost (and therefore the Trinity) : https://www.islam-guide.com/ch3-10.htm

Yes, there are different religions that share primary sources. No, this does not mean it is the same God.

I am also concerned that this attempt to make all religions the same comes from a place counter to the ideals of a cooperative society. Much has been made of the benefits of allowing people to define themselves. If one is to argue against one type of discrimination against Muslims (in this case, using it as a vehicle for racist dog-whistling), it seems counterproductive to discriminate against Islam in another way (that their religion is for naught). To say Islam is the same as Christianity seems to me another way of telling new Australians to "integrate" (whatever that means).

If this is not the case then all I am left with is the impression that your (and others) argument is coming from an ideological position, evangelising a religion (or none at all) other than Islam, Christianity or Judaism, which is a different discussion entirely.
