Nighthawk 0 Report post Posted December 10, 2008 I'm salivating at the thought. As far as Jesus, he's generally the same in all religions, he's just typically a prophet. As for the God of Christianity/Judaism/Islam, I think that's definitely a distinction: you could say YHWH, Allah and... another one, I don't know. Elohim.

Just John 0 Report post Posted December 10, 2008 I might have to brush up on some of the lesser deities in various mythologies, but I'll play. And I don't think you can separate Yahweh, God, and Allah. All those Judeo-Christian religions just build off history. The one constant is that it's always the same god. Now, will prophets/human religious figures be allowed (i.e. Jesus, Muhammed, The Buddha)? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Burning Pirate Ship Sex 0 Report post Posted December 10, 2008 Totally in on this. And yeah, The God of Judaism/Christianity/Islam and its various offshoots (Noahide, Samaritanism, Babism, The Bahai Faith) are one and the same according to scholars of all the religions Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nighthawk 0 Report post Posted December 10, 2008 But there's not really a god, so they're different. It's like saying that Kevin Costner and Cary Elwes are the same Robin Hood. Don't mind me, though, as I wouldn't have taken any of them anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brett Favre 0 Report post Posted December 10, 2008 No, there's definitely a God, and they're all the same (well there's only one). And I'm in this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RepoMan 0 Report post Posted December 10, 2008 I'm in. For the sake of the draft, I say we allow each of the monotheistic faiths to have a seperate God. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just John 0 Report post Posted December 10, 2008 But there's not really a god, so they're different. It's like saying that Kevin Costner and Cary Elwes are the same Robin Hood. So then, could one pick Zeus and Jupiter separately? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nighthawk 0 Report post Posted December 10, 2008 Of course not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Just John 0 Report post Posted December 10, 2008 Ok, just checking since it's the same thing as Yahweh/God/Allah (one deity renamed in a different language). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Twisted Intestine 0 Report post Posted December 10, 2008 Okay, I'm thinking they should count as one. Just because I will be bored if people select them 3 times. I want some obscure gods in this! "Now, will prophets/human religious figures be allowed (i.e. Jesus, Muhammed, The Buddha)?" Yes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nighthawk 0 Report post Posted December 10, 2008 Ok, just checking since it's the same thing as Yahweh/God/Allah (one deity renamed in a different language). No, it's different than that. Those three gods (and calling the Christian god "God" is a misnomer) all have very distinct personalities. What those religions share, if anything, is Abraham. But once again, I don't care. They're not on my list. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Copper Feel 0 Report post Posted December 10, 2008 I don't intend to participate, but I still think they should be separate. They're purported to have done different things, even if they're all technically one and the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Twisted Intestine 0 Report post Posted December 10, 2008 Okay let's make them seperate. We'll call them Yahweh, Allah, and Jesus' old man. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
