But one other thing they forget is the church is bride and the eucharist.The Koran and Muslims often ignore this fact and focus on the other irelevant things. It may be they don't believe in Jesus' divinity but Jesus' Church is something that will stay forever. Of course other differences are they don't have mass or servces but only rakyat (prayer) while Christains involve themselves with mass, the celebration of the Lord's supper and much else. Christians should extend friendship and also tell more about his Church - something that is being ignored frequently. For Jesus says not even the gates of hell can stand against it.

Jesus Christ said that his kingdom was not of this world; it is yet to come. Islam says the kingdom of Allah (Moon God) is here now and for the taking. http://www.dhimmi.org/ . Those like the Rt Rev John Pritchard, Bishop Oxford, who welcomes a diverse and multicultural society, don’t realise the significance of the loud amplification of a call to prayer, five times a day, in Oxford or any other British town. Like a dog staking out its territory, this is an aggressive claim for a monocultural Eurabia. But we are becoming Islamicized by default through evolutionary humanism which also believes in fate; both religions diminish the role of free will and human responsibility.
