Debate: Judaism and Islam are the only monotheist religions?

[JOSHUA]

I dont want to mention why catholicism and christianity arent, just out of respect. (maybe christianity)

 

[WinDixie]

Christianity is one too actually. Since Jesus is technically god himself. Not A god but God on earth. That's what Christians are taught.

But if we're gonna take Christianity off that list then might as well take Islam too. Since Muhammad is given special treatment by Muslims.
Sure he's a prophet but in order to be Muslim you have to acknowledge his significance in Islam.

....so, it just leaves judaism then.

There is only one God. He is the same yesterday, today and forever.

Christians, Jews and Catholics all believe in this one God.

 

[SaeculaSaeculorum]

Catholicism and Judaism are monotheistic too, but you are entitled to your opinion. Both religions believe in only one God, not many.

 

[PangellLoveandPeace]

I disagree
there are many other monotheistic beliefs out there
and I also believe that Christianity is one of them
the trinity is still one and the same being
therefore monotheistic

for what it is worth , I am not Christian

Technically Judaism is the only monotheistic religion...Jesus and Muhammed never meant to start a new religion, only add on the the already existing one.

Mono = ONE.

Three does NOT equal one.

It's pretty simple, really.

As an Orthodox Jew, I believe--and am taught--that Islam is a monotheistic religion, and that Christianity is not. Now, since I'm Orthodox, I'm a little stricter than other Jews. But my rabbi advises that I should not--EVER--for any reason--enter a church's sanctuary, because it is a place of idol worship.

In a pinch, I COULD go into a mosque.

This is something that really upsets Christians, when they hear it. And I'm sorry--I respect many Christians. Then again, I respect many Hindus, and could not enter a Hindu temple.

Again, 3 doesn't equal 1.
