You’re just like Asuka o algo
 
It evolved from the ancient Indo-European polytheistic religion. We know this because the Sanskrit Vedas, the most ancient Hindu texts, mention a god called "dyaus pter". This Dyaus pter originates from the Indo-European Dyeus Pter (literally: Sky Father), who also diverged into the Greek Zeus (also sometimes referred to as Zeu Pater), the Roman Jupiter, as well as the Germanic Odin and Tyr. Hindu Religion diverged very heavily however and the Sky Father, who was very prominent in other Indo-European religions, was relegated to a minor deity only mentioned once. Not to mention the (probable) mixing with the native beliefs and eventual syncretism with Buddhism. This caused Hinduism to become an insane mish-mash of different Faiths, were they can't even really agree who the Chief god is, if there are multiple gods, if there is one god with multiple aspects and if there even is a god at all. Utterly insane and frankly it is surprising to me that it is still around.

It's dependent on the intricacies of religious perspective, of course, but my logic doesn't find this to be true. Our Christian God is Lord Jesus, just as the God of Muhammad's followers is Allah, and those of the Jews, who reject Jesus as God, only see what we see as God in the nature of the Father as God, while rejecting the Son and, through that rejection, the Holy Spirit. There's a clear distinction, then, in the gods they have versus our God, Christ. Maybe we all see the same Lord in the original scriptures to some extent, but the existence of Christ as our God completely defies the Allah of Islam, which the Muslims say has never had a consistency of hypostases like our God of the Christian faith does, and the Jewish rejection of Jesus means that they do not worship our God, either.

I disagree, they all believe in the old Testament. The only difference is that if Jesus is God or not. It's a bit weird to split it up like that.

Their belief in the Old Testament, once again, with clarification that I am speaking from the perspective of Christianity, does not mean that we serve the same God, by any means, specifically because Jesus is God, which is the main distinguishing quality between the Jew and the Christian, as it has been since that distinction was first made with the events of Christ's life two millennia ago. The Jewish god can not be the same as the Christian God because God has those three natures I listed just then in my last message, of the three distinct persons of one essence, and the Jewish god only has one person within its essence, so I don't think it is weird to "split it up like that" when that is such an important quality of the Christian God in comparison to the god of the Jews and the god of the Muslims. They can't be the same, I don't know how they could be. Even if parts of our scriptures match, that doesn't mean the rest of the scriptures share the exact same godhead of which we praise, because the rest of the scriptures also matter in considering this, and their utter defiances of one another, from the Jew's Torah and Talmud to the Christian's New Testament to the Muslim's Qur'an and Hadith. There just can't be the same force behind all three of these from any of these religion's perspectives, as the Jew will deny Christ and Muhammad's teachings, the Christian will deny the Pharisaic and Muhammadan teachings, and the Muslim will deny the teachings of Christ (from the Gospels) and the Jews, so I believe that the very idea of us sharing a singular godhead, if that's what's being suggested here, must be false. I don't even know how that can work, and I want to know why you think this so that I may understand your beliefs better, if you would like to share them with me.

I don't want to argue about this, sorry.
