Read Life of Pi, or just watch the Movie.
The main character in that book was Christian, Buddhist, Muslim, Hindu, or something to that effect.
As it applies to faith, what does it matter what anyone says you can or can't do?
Believe whatever you want to believe, even when someone like me comes along and tells you it's all make-believe.
In the end, you're going to believe whatever you want to believe regardless and even in spite of what some folks tell you.
Make your own choices and your own rules. You are the one that has to live with your own self.
You sound sweet and reasonable
but you are leadiing people astray like a witch.
see;
you have no power, whatsoever
the only existant power, is the spiritual world, who will judge one, after one died here.
You may say what you want
but all you do, is leading souls astray, like this.
Which is a horrible Offense.
now
you dont believe anyway what i say here
- but im telling you its true.
And, spiritually speaking, you are under me.

No.
im sorry - OP is closer to the truth as you.
Your wanted opinion is that ' theres no spiritual world above us, at all '
Boy how wrong you are !!
..if you d only have a glánce...you d cringe
But since it is your own choice to believe 'in nothing '
[ which is caused by the Dark itself]
dont go 'advicing ' others.

You know the truth as you have been told it is.
Do you really know the truth?
Do you know God IS the Tree of Life?
He stands at the top.
He can do whatever he wishes to.
We were created in His image.
We have the power to turn our wishes into reality.
But with all of us doing that at once, it becomes superficially chaotic.
But is it really?
Is nature chaos?
Is the constantly buzzing forest or powerful storms of the sea chaotic?
Or are they just a PERFECTLY executed machine?
Meant to look like chaos, to disguise our true nature, that we ALL come from God and to Him we ALL will return.

Dude .. you seriously don't know who Jesus is. Jesus is God Incarnate. Muhammad was just an admitted thief who murdered his political opponents. A Christian has no need of Islam. If for some reason a Christian wants to believe in Islam, then he or she would have to dump his/her own Christian beliefs in order to buy into Islam. If that's what he/she wants to do .. that's their business ... But it's IMPOSSIBLE to be a Christian and a Muslim at the same time and believe in both. The two are theologically diametrically opposed.

you may hate it,
but the 1 only way to make sense of everything that is happening,
is to accept the concept God said it is.
And that concept is
that Female represents all the Attributes [ like love, earth, etc]
and Male represents " the Authority over those same Attributes ".
meaning,
Witches are women who have no male as head: but Evil Masculine as 'head'.
female needs His male as [ spiritual] head
or Evil will be her head
- i agree immediately, that there arent [many] males who are capable of being a females head
- yet they should
but this tells only the incredible mess we got into
devised by satan himself

I have told you before how much I care for you.
You are very close to Him, even of you don't realize it.
You are completely correct. They are fighting over labels.
I believe in neither Christianity or Islam.
I believe in God.
I believe in His Messengers. All of you.
Is it possible to be a Christian and a believer in Islam?

I don't personally have anything against any follower of Islam that I know -- there are several nice ones here on ATS.
However, to answer the direct question of the OP, which is:
Is it possible to be a Christian and a believer in Islam?
No, it is not possible.
Why? To be a Christian is to profess to the Nicene Creed, which includes the statement that Jesus is God. He is not a prophet. He is not a wise teacher. He is God incarnate... period.
Islam does not teach that, it teaches that he is not God, in fact.
So if you believe that Islam is proper teaching, then you are not a Christian, because in order to accept Islam, you must reject the Nicene Creed.

Where in the Quran does it say that Jesus is not God?
Serious question. It's a long book.
It is a puzzle why an all mighty god choose an illiterate, 40 year old camel herder from a cultural and geographical backwater to spread his message amongst humanity.
