which group muslims or christians actually love him more and show him more respect

[Wandered Off]

I'm reminded one of the avatars MidnightBlue had for a while: "Jesus loves you, but I'm his favorite."

I foresee little if any productive conversation coming from this thread.

Obviously you think it's the Muslims.

given the histories of blood shed and persecution, i would have to say "non of the above".

Good question: Christians, being the followers of Christ as a deity, do show a great deal of love and respect for Jesus. While the Islamic side of the fence considers him to be a respected prophet (if my memory serves me correctly.) Since they are so close, let us look at the individual actions of each religion towards the mighty Jesus.

Christianity - Developed a number of hit songs regarding Jesus' ability to perform wondrous doodads. Everything was sung about, from healing of the sick, to Jesus' ability to beat up Santa Clause (Ho, Ho, Oh! by Jennifer Clementine.)

Islam - Created the famous, House of Jesus Memorabilia. This iconic abode, currently located in Cairo, Egypt, is home to the world's largest collection of stuff that Jesus probably said, did, agreed with, and notarized. There is even an unabridged new testament that was signed by Jesus himself at the original book tour. Best of all, the entire attraction is free of charge.

Christianity - Constructed the 40 petawatt laser that carved the phrase "We Love Jesus Most" in the side of Mars. Now, all the passing aliens know where the planets true allegiances lie.

Islam - Personally visited Jesus when he came down with the bubonic plague. With them they brought delicious chicken noodle soup, a number of home remedies, and an assortment of get well cards and chocolates. Then, using their doctoral know-how, they nursed Jesus back to health.

Christianity - Knitted Jesus a best friends forever sweatshirt.

Islam - Washed Jesus' Chevy Cobalt after a lengthy road trip.

Christianity - Through a series of phone calls, picketing, and lobbying, stopped telemarketers from contacting Jesus about unwanted offers.

Islam - Bought Jesus a lifetime supply of unbelievably delicious girl scout cookies.

So, taking these various actions into account I'm sure you can tell who wins the Jesus' BFF competition.

Do you not say that Jesus is fatherless? That he never had the bottle to take up his cross but let someone else die in His place? I think you dishonour him.

If one feels compelled to ask this question, I would take it as a distinct sign that said person is unlikely to be one of the favored.

I can't imagine a god who *supposed* to be the one who created human beings, then according to the christians, thought it would be cool to be human too, to be humiliated by those whom he created!
