Please be careful with your tone, your comments about "real Christians" can be misconstrued.

I'm sorry I just mean that they don't believe really the same things as many Christians believe and I personally do not consider them Christians. More like a break off of the church that I in many ways do not agree with

Please tell me what you mean by claiming the Mormons believe something completely different. Have you read the book of Mormon?
Same goes for Islam, have you bothered to read the Quran or do you just guess at what it says?

I have not read either but I can ask the same to you or have you read the Bible also. And also I know the jist of both and consider both somewhat interesting but somewhat false. They kind of base off parts of the Bible and then both go in a different direction. Allah you have to pray to at certain times and Mohammed who made the Koran up pretty much first went to his town with his story and they kicked him out (because there are proofs that he was kinda off his rocker) and so he went to another town where they believed him and thus The Koran. And as for the book of Mormon, they basically believe a guy who said that angels gave him golden tablets that only he was aloud to see and so he spoke what was on them in one room to people in another room so they could write it down. I frankly believe in my God and IMO not to offend anyone but the one true God because there is more evidence and we can't understand Him. If we could understand God like we can understand Allah, then God would be too human.IMO

To answer your question, yes I have read the Quran, the Book of Mormon, and the Bible. Although I have only managed to read the bible completely. My knowledge of the Quran and the Book of Mormon is far more limited since I have only managed to read portions of the entire work.
As far as the 'jist' I would recommend you read or atleast talk to someone well educated in those faith's before you assume you 'know' what they believe.

As I have mentioned before, I do not believe this is the proper place to discuss my personal relgious beliefs.

I agree here. A person definitely should not feel like they must defend their faith. If you wish to do so on your own accord, that's different.

Me too, and thanks. I dont think this is a winnable arguement for either side. I mean how can someone use science to argue against faith? How can one use faith to argue against science?
