For the record, Allah and the God of the Bible are not the same.

They don't share the same attributes, and they don't share the same set of expectations for humanity.

No one would claim Shiva and Jesus Christ are the same. Nor would anyone claim Buddha and Jesus are the same. They are different. Read about them. Different ideas.

So, it is with Allah and "God". To think that Allah and "God" are the same is to not be able to make simple distinctions.
