But I'm fairly sure that Allah didn't incarnate and get tortured to death at any stage, on our behalf.
If there is a God then I'm pretty sure Allah is just a different name for that same God , stories are made by man.
What is the name of Allah/God?

Why would a God need a Human name other than one given to it by Humans as a identifier for Humans.
Oh, God doesn't have a name. That is your logic. Everyone and everything has a name but God. Hmm, seems legit.

Christians are not people of the book, flat out wrong
Christians are the servants of Jesus.
Christians are not saved by a book or serve a book or even called to love a book
People of the Book/Scripture (Arabic: أهل الكتاب ′Ahl al-Kitāb) is an Islamic term which refers to Jews, Christians and Sabians.[1] It is also used in Judaism to refer to the Jewish people and by members of some Christian denominations to refer to themselves. The Quran uses the term in reference to Jews, Christians and Sabians in a variety of contexts, from religious polemics to passages emphasizing the community of faith between those who possess monotheistic scriptures.

I'm Christian and I'm not even sure if this is Jesus real DOB.
it isn't... said date was adopted to get more converts from paganism
Sol Invictus was the celebration before it was Xmas

yeah I've heard that explanation before... Though im still inclined to believe it had to do with winning converts from paganism.. theres never been a definitive date on the birth of Jesus mentioned anywhere... and theres several celebrations relating to that date within the first 300 some odd years of his birth... Mithra worship comes to mind...

Fine its your pine. Have you done a fact check on your Congressional men and women wishing a Merry Christmas or even mentioning Jesus. How about the Senate?

Cool thanks, but
I do know some Christians who believe the bible to be perfect and worship it but
It’s not what Christians are, Christians are followers of Christ not a book
Fair point, well backed up, thanks
