Christians actually beleive in 3 gods, you guys are a polytheist religion. You believe in a "Father" who is the Abrahamic god, with all his traits, you believe in Jesus Christ, his son, and a strange variation and new innovation called the Holy Ghost, which is usually manifest in Jesus mother Mary. In order to rectify this, you guys invented the Trinity, which is by far the most nonsensical religious doctrine.

This is absolutely incorrect. Catholics don't worship Mary as part of the Trinity or three 'G-ds'. The verses in the Qu'ran that talk about this are actually referring to a heretical sect of Arabs in the 4th Century known as Collyridians.....

Most of the early heresies were Trinitarian and Christological in nature, but Collyridianism stood alone as a heresy that sought to deify the Blessed Virgin Mary. Little is known about the movement's theology. Not even the names of the group's leaders are mentioned by writers of the time. This sect's excessive Marian devotion developed into the idolatry of Mary worship. This aberration grew out of the Church's rightful veneration of Mary as ever-virgin, Mother of God, and powerful heavenly intercessor, but crossed the line of orthodoxy when certain Christians began to worship Mary as divine. Details about the Collyridians are scanty, but one of the few specifics we know of them is that at their liturgical service bread was offered as a sacrifice to Mary.

The problem with this argument of reaching into Judaism to claim connection to Islam is really just that....REACHING.

No one on this earth recognized Islam till many years after Christ...you can look into other Biblical and torah books to justify Islam being old fact of the matter is.

Prophet Isaiah prophesied about Jesus long before he was born.

Why don't you use Islamic evidence to justify how old Islam is why reach for Books in the Bible?

Surely there has to be something in Islam to help you? :obama3:

Unless you believe the old testament is followed by Islam.

if that's the case do Muslims believe Jews are the only chosen people by God since that is the main running theme in the Old testament and primary focus of Judaism? Which even led to the creation of a modern day Jewish state? :ooh:

This is about to get interesting...stay tuned
The Qu'ran references many of the Old Testament prophets and Jesus, and
I keep trying to explain to you that Islam simply means SUBMISSION to the one god. Abraham was a Muslim and so were the other prophets. You have to understand that Abraham, Moses, etc did not ever mention a trinity, and when they spoke it was about and to a singular GOD. they did not speak to Jesus or the "Holy Spirit", they simply spoke to HIM. "Judaism" is also an innovation, with the invention of the Talmud and the institution of the Synagogue, which is NOWHERE in the words of the Prophets.

The Qu'ran is according to Islam the continuation of the faith of the prophets... We do not believe in the Old or New testaments completely because they are CLEARLY corrupt, but do not discard the whole books because there is some truth to them. We do not believe Jews are a chosen people.

Now you're jumping and making a claim about Isiah, why don't you quote the scripture in Isiah with the full context?

Not entirely true, especially that part about the Quran... but the Trinity is still polytheism. Furthermore, what I said about Mary is true in the Catholic Church, which is the largest denomination of Christianity... they believe Mary is a vessel of the Holy Ghost, and that the Catholic Church IS the holy ghost... more insanity.

I beg to differ.....

The Noble Qu'ran said:
Sura 5:72 They have certainly disbelieved who say, " Allah is the Messiah, the son of Mary" while the Messiah has said, "O Children of Israel, worship Allah , my Lord and your Lord." Indeed, he who associates others with Allah - Allah has forbidden him Paradise, and his refuge is the Fire. And there are not for the wrongdoers any helpers.

Sura 5:73 They have certainly disbelieved who say, " Allah is the third of three." And there is no god except one God. And if they do not desist from what they are saying, there will surely afflict the disbelievers among them a painful punishment.

Sura 5:74 So will they not repent to Allah and seek His forgiveness? And Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.

Who is 'them/they'?......

Altafsir.com - The Tafsirs -

Abd-Allah ibn Abbas said:
Allah then revealed about the Nestorian Christians of Najran who claimed that Jesus was the son of Allah and that Jesus and the Lord are partners, saying: (O People of the Scripture! Do not exaggerate) do not be extreme (in your religion) for this is not the right course (nor utter aught concerning Allah save the Truth. The Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, was only a messenger of Allah, and His word which He conveyed unto Mary) and through His word he became a created being, (and a spirit from Him) and through His command, Jesus became a son without a father. (So believe in Allah and His messengers) all the messengers including Jesus, (and say not “Three”) a son, father and wife. (Cease!) from making such a claim and repent ((it is) better for you!) than such a claim. (Allah is only One God) without a son or partner. (Far is it removed from His Transcendent Majesty that he should have a son. His is all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth) are His servants. (And Allah is sufficient as Defender) as Lord of all created beings and He is witness of what He says about Jesus.

That seems like the traditional views of Christians, what is the difference between the views of the Nestorians and that of regular Christianity?

Furthermore, the Quran talks in general about Christianity and the idea that Jesus is the son of god.

3:59 The similitude of Jesus before Allah is as that of Adam . . .
