[quote="Sicilian_Summers":e7964]Pest, I think Islam and Judism are derrived from the same man, Abraham. I'm not 100% sure, but I do remember reading and thinking how rediculous it was that the believers of both religions have been fighting since biblical times and continue to fight to this day and will continue to fight in the future, when both were founded upon the journey of one man..[/quote:e7964]

I dont think islam came into its own as a religion until mohammed arrived. I am pretty sure he is the founder of the faith, much like jesus created the christian religion. Remember - Jesus was a Jew. Hence my later date on the timeline. If i remeber correctly, mohammeds family fought over control of the faith after his death and split the religion into the current sunni and shite division.
