<P><STRONG>Actually, I think it was back in October of last year, I remember Doug Wilson telling everyone at the Sub that Christians and Muslims DO NOT worship the "same" God.</STRONG></P>
<P><STRONG>It was news to me. Every Muslim I have ever known has always said the same thing on the subject. . . "we worship the same God, the God of Abraham." But, hey, according to Doug wilson, Jews have missed the boat as well.</STRONG></P>
<P><STRONG>That was an interesting evening.</STRONG></P>
