Document Summary

I read through all the threads on the final exam and although some of you posted very helpful notes (of which i am extremely thankful), no body posted a direct comparison of the three religions. I went to a few websites to get a better idea of the major themes/topics when comparing the religions and here is a basic guideline that i think will be helpful to you when you study. For now, i am going to just put the outlines but hopefully by tomorrow, i will update my post with more detailed notes on each point. For each of the points, i will first mention islam, then judaism, and finally christianity in that respective order. [i typed this in wordpad, so excuse my grammar and spelling mistakes] The adherents are called muslims, jews, and christians. There are 1. 3 billion muslims, 14 million jews and 2 billion christians.
