During the Roman occupation of Palestine, Christianity was founded by Paul of Tarsus; a less ruthless sect of Judaism and a less exclusive one. Later, in the 7th century, Muhammad and his followers brought back the uncompromising monotheism of the original Judaism and founded Islam with a book called Quran. They introduced a very powerful method of military conquest to spread Islam. It is to be noted that Christianity was spread by the sword as well by the Romans after the Emperor Constantine and then by the Crusaders, and later by the conquistador and other Europeans (that is, invaders, colonists) in the name of missionary accomplishment
Ancient Religion Kathleen Yarbrough Post University October 1, 2017 Ancient Religion Islam and Christianity both originally came from the Middle East, and both have many differences and similarities. I believe that Christianity was the first to come about in the 5th or 6th century, then Islam came about in the 7th century, it is hard to tell what information is correct and what is not because much of the information is conflicting. I do believe from all the information that I read that this piece of information was correct, the Islam people believed that if you do something wrong you pay, and the Christians were more passive and believed in forgiveness. Both Islam and Christians believe in hell. "

The one speaker that has stuck with me was Waleed Naseem, a Muslim Youth Leader. In just thirty minutes, he taught us morals that I will hold dear forever.
