Re: [Growing Long Beards ] Incidentaly


I know this is terribly off topic, but...

I was under the impression that Islam, Christianity and Judaism all share
the same root religion.
The 'One God' of ancient Egypt - personified "Ahten Ahken" (Sorry for my
poor spelling)
They also share many fundamental concepts, for example : their respect of
human life.
Although I believe - overall - the Muslim religion has historically been
more tolerant of other cultures and religions that Christianity,
assimilating rather than converting.

Personally, I follow a much older and more down to earth religion.

BTW - Pagan ( in the western world ) is technically anything which is not
Christian.

Just a comment on "tolerant" Islam: this is a myth spread by the Islamist propaganda machine and its toadies in the liberal media. Islam is in its core a ...
