Allah is the same God worshiped in Judaism and Christianity. The differences in the religions come in Jesus. Traditionally, jewish people believe Jesus was here but wasn't the son of God. Christians believe he was and Muslims believe he was a prophet, just like Muhammad. Jesus didn't even want to start a new religion in his name, he wanted to reestablish and renew Judaism, which was his religion. He wanted to change the way things had been done but it ended up sprouting another religion entirely because the Jews at the time disavowed him and thought he was a heretic.

So Allah wouldn't fall into the Jesus category but he would fall into the supreme being "God" category.

The reason for all the different Jesus' is, at least to me, related to the different depictions of him around the world. Every race has a different interpretation of him physically and even personality wise so every one of those interpretations has a seat at the table

What's the significance of "that purple shirt"?

No I didn't notice, but I also didn't think anything deeper into it other than he was getting a shirt.

Let a G know what's good

In Anansi's intro; "For a fukking purple shirt"...so he's ultimately "weaving" a shirt of the rarest finery for Shadow. He obviously favors black excellence, he also wears purple himself.

Damn is this show really that crack???

 

[storyteller]

I spent most of it confused at wtf was happening but grabbed some youtube breakdowns to connect all the dots. The finale was flames, I'll be active in here when season 2 rolls around. They really did a lot of stage setting and background this season.

That suit looked on Shadow

Pause

Nancy and White Jesus stole the show on this one

 

[Roadie pipeher]

the fly buzzing annoys the heck out of me...finale seemed like the best ep all together, even though it still feels like it setting the table.

I just got caught up to the Sweeney episode.....

I got lost in the story that I thought I was watching an entirely different show/movie. A true testament of great writing! On to the next episode!

Just seen the finale don't know what to make about the season as a whole. Great pilot and episodes 5,6 really, the rest was a bit of a struggle to hold my interest.

Take this episode my mind just wondered but I am sure if I paid attention I would be offended.

Like I have said the increased focus on Laura moon is a mistake she is not a likeable or love to hate character I just want the sight of her off my tv. And as predicted shadow moon basically took a back seat while the cast essentially carried the show.

Ps If it's going to just be 8 episodes per season why do we need time wasted on things like the homo indian. I hope we never see that dude and his quest again
