I was never debating about Abraham. I was debating about your statement which is completely wrong How? Those religions come from Judaism because they come from Avraham and Avraham is Jewish!? You said ALL religions not the aptly titled Abramihic religions ;D

I'm confused, what's the difference between Abraham and Avraham?

I'm confused, what's the difference between Abraham and Avraham? theyre the same -- just one pronounced the hebrew way like isaac and yitzhak or jacob and yakov rebecca and rev'ka

Not all religions stem from Judaism EI.
Numerous ones do, including Christianity.
But, even then, I think Islam was first.
So it's
Islam V Judaism V Christianity
And then theres all the other religions which are in no way related to any of them.
EDIT; And if I had to choose I'd be a buddist.

Islam started about 1300 year ago, while Judaism started nearly 6000 years ago, and Christianity started just over 2000 years ago so your order is mixed up.

probably need to add zoroastrianism to the hebrew/christian/islamic family of religions and maybe baha'i

Judaism first... so christianity in between Abraham wasn't, lets call it... Judaism's prophet. In fact I think Im right in saying all the religeons believe he was a prophet of sorts... Jesus was a Jew... let me say the islam belief since no one's gone there... basically there's a whole load of prophets, one after the other, each basically extending the last one's work... so say the first one just gets people to believe in god and pray, the next one makes them behave better.... not actually like that, Im just using an anology Abraham was one... Moses was one... then you get Judaism. Which Islam believes was right at the time, and then they were told another prophet (Jesus) would come to extend it again... and that's how Christianity became.... and then Muhammed came, and he extended Christianity into Islam, and he was the last prophet so Islam was the last... "extension"? And Islam also believes.... basically all the religeons were right, but were changed slightly... it believes Christ was just a prophet, not God/Gods son for example. "Just" a prophet isn't exactly a phrase you hear often but hey... Basically I have been convinced that if any religeon is right, its Islam. And Buddihsts arn't actually worshippers? Isn't it just like a way of life or something? With Buddah as the leader... that's what I've heard. If anything offends anyone here sorry, Im just saying things as I believe them, don't mean to get anyone angry

I thought that buddhists try to accomplish internal peace and they are allowed to celebrate other religios holdiays and feasts, like christmas.
But anyways, are you telling me that Islams don't have a sorta Christmas? So when Islamcis own stores, do they have a Christmas sale??? And do children get presents, or feel left out?
