PEACE!!!
Every human being is biologically identical. Even though a person may be a Christian, a Muslim, or a Hindu, there is no change in the biological properties of a person, as he just belongs to the species called “homo sapiens”. Although all human beings belong to the same species, but their beliefs differ according to their own religions. Being biologically same, one person doesn’t eat meat, while other doesn’t drink alcohol. Thus, people live in a same society, but they act according to their own beliefs, cultures, traditions, customs, etc.
Though many people think that they have been following their religion, but many are just following their traditions. Since people hardly read their religious books (scriptures), they hardly know what these scriptures actually command. The backbone of every religion is the religious books associated with it. But many of us do not know the information in our religious books at all.
As every religion talks about God and good things, it is obvious that all these religious books have many things in common. Whether Islam, Christianity, or Hinduism, every religion commands its followers many things in common. Few common things from the society are still common in the religious books, but unknown to many people. For instance, drinking of alcohol is prohibited in all religions, but people feel that it is prohibited only in Islam. Similarly, eating of pork (pig meat) is not just prohibited in Islam, but even in Christianity and Hinduism also.
In view of the common commands and beliefs in the 3 major
religions of India, i.e., Hinduism, Islam and Christianity, this blog contains
few common points across these religions. This ‘comparative religion points’
blog contains the references of these common points (presently 9 points) from the religious books of
these three major religions.
Hinduism:
Yajur Veda: 32:3. There is NO COUNTERPART OF HIM whose glory verily is great. In the beginning rose Hiranyagarbha, etc. Let not him harm me, etc. Than whom there is no other born, etc.
Christianity:
Bible: Leviticus 26:1. Ye shall make you NO IDOLS nor graven IMAGE, neither rear you up a standing image, neither shall ye set up any image of stone in your land, to bow down unto it: for I am the Lord your God.
Islam:
Quran: 2:163. And your God is ONE God: There is no god but He, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.
The points at the beginning of this post, just give the references in terms of numbers, etc, and do not give the full quotes (the details are given later in this post) from the verses. So, this way all these points have become a very small paragraph. Hence this compactness can be utilized by copying this whole paragraph in a Smart-Phone. And once done, then on, whenever there is a discussion, these points can be referred from our phone within seconds, for clarifying the whole matter and making peace. In fact, there are lot more things that can be put here, but these points should be enough to clarify the things to a certain extent.
Anyway, thanks for referring this blog. Once you are done, please suggest for any improvements, or any other additional point, etc, by clicking on the 'Comments' below this post. You can comment using your ID as 'Anonymous' also without logging in. After entering the comment, just preview, and post it by entering the verification-word there. Moreover, please copy this text and forward it to your friends through email with this web address as reference for any updates.

All the points have been detailed in the further posts for more clarity. In case, if you are unable to see all the detailed description, please go to the home page by clicking on the following link:
