Have to admit, it is sad that Jews, Christians, and Muslims, all followers of the same God, and same Prophets, can't find a better way to get along. Maybe we should be looking to our faiths' similarities as opposed to their differances. We should be base it on mutual respect. There are extremists in every religion, perhaps they are the ones who need to be taught what is right and wrong...

@shaogodzilla Well said, The problem is the Christians will never denounce Jesus as the true Son of God, Jews will never accept Jesus as the Massiah, and the Mulims hate the teachings of Christ and will never accept any religion other than Islam. Now what? Religion has and always will divide the people. Sadly religous war is a fact of life
