John 14 16: And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; Could this be Muhammad? How about Joseph Smith? L. Ron Hubbard? I know the Xians claim this is the Holy Ghost. www.answering-christianity.com/aramaic_society.htm

Its not so much what we believe, but what is written. Since you use KJV: John 14:26 - But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. See, only 10 verses after the one you quoted . Now unless Muhammad claims he is the Holy Ghost... Hey, L. Ron Hubbard's books started out as "self help". When they didn't sell very well, someone likely thought to turn the works into a religion. I guess it helped to get the books off the clearance rack.

But now you know how the Jews feel about Christians reinterpreting their holy books. Hey, L. Ron Hubbard's books started out as "self help".

I tried to read Battlefield Earth but couldn't get through the first book. They must get better.

I ain't taking nothing up with the Muslims. To quote a Joe Diffie song "Lord I wanna go to heaven, but I don't wanna go tonight". I only used KJV 'cause you did . Go back and pretend it is a religion. Seems to work.
