Re: Blasphemous film ready to release
NO , I am not confusing myself. Moses is Moses as that is his jewish name and he was born a Jew. Jesus is Jesus as he was born jewish. And when a new religion evolved they respected this name under Roman Catholics. When Islam was founded by Prophet Mohammed he changed the names to Musa and Isa. THis only applies under Islamic faith.
LOL...you're not serious...are you? Jesus and Moses are very anglicized.

This is the problem I have that muslims can call them by different names but how can we automatically change their religions.

Islam has a specific meaning, and does not necessarily tightly correlate to the religious and political identity of what a Muslim is. In particular, from a qualitative point of view, Moses and Jesus were among those Prophets who submitted their will to God..
To suggest that they were practicing Islam is not a political statement (although you are taking it to be one).
