I think that I might have given some people here some wrong impressions in the past. So, I'd just like to clear a few things up.
1. I am a Christian.
2. This means that I believe in one God, who expresses Himself as a Trinity of people - God the Father, God the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
3. This also means that I believe all other gods/godesses/deities-of-any-description are fakes, invented by humans or by Satan to trap people and keep them away from God.
4. In addition, I believe that everyone who isn't a Christian is going to Hell.
5. Understandably, I would really rather all you people didn't go to Hell. Hence, I'm praying for you. And I'm going to keep praying for you. Even if you ask me not to.
So, there we go.

However, the Koran (sp?) does refer to the bible (and, I think, Christians) as a further source of information, so it would be hard to be a devout muslim and yet know nothing of Christianity[1]

[1] I absolutly refuse point blank to start a debate about how much about Christianity you have to know before you discount salvation by the 'simple faith' I suggested in my previous comment.
