Chrislam is a syncretic religion originating in 1970s Nigeria that blends Christian and Islamic principles and practices. By finding commonalities between the two faiths, it aims to reduce religious tensions, frequently treating both the Bible and the Quran as holy books. Traditional orthodox Christians and Muslims reject Chrislam, stating that core doctrines such as the divinity of Jesus and the finality of Muhammad's message cannot be reconciled.

What an idiotic religion.
>>
>>18596041
nigerians might be the smartest group of people on the planet
>>
>>18596041
Why can't Islam and Christianity be reconciled? Aren't both of them just sects of Judaism. Make a few minor adjustments and it should work out.
>>
>>18596041
Alawites kinda do this but in non-retarded way
>>
It sounds like a joke, but this is the religion of the antichrist.
>>
>>18596076
They’re different fan fictions of Judaism.
>>
>>18596041
Jews have worked tirelessly to destroy them both, and make of all people noahides.
>>
>>18596202
>the antichrist reveres jesus as a prophet
>>
>>18596076
In theory, Islam rejects the divinity of Christ
In practice, Islamists murder Christians
>>
>>18596076
t. doesn't know about either religion


>>18596216
>antichrist makes Yasu into Isa who is a complete failure as prophet
Odd how according to Islam Isa preached pure Islam yet there is no evidence of Islam in the 1st century
>>
>>18596273
Strange how you've seemingly never heard of the ebionites
>>
>>18596295
>ebionites
>pure islam
Do you not know what ebionites beloved? Virgin birth, crucifixion, etc. Strange how you would think they could be islamic.
>>
>>18597435
>virgin birth
And you believe muslims deny this?
>crucifixion
Irrelevant, it wouldn't have invalidated their belief because the quranic verse speaking about it wasn't revealed yet. Curiously though even the bible records christians doubting it happened and/or that it meant anything for their salvation.
>>
>>18596041
Sure worked out well for the Sikhs and reduced religious tension in punjab! Oh wait
>>
>>18596041
I don't want anything to do with christianity, ours is a distinct religion. And I'm sure christians share that sentiment as well.
>>
>>18597606
Sikhism is not a syncretism, it's more appropriately an Islam-flavored denomination of Hinduism. Why do online dweebs consider them muslim-adjacent, when they don't share our metaphysis, theology-proper, eschatology, soteriology, or barely our sufi-mysticism.
Are the muslims so driven by love for these maybe 20 million people, or are the sikhs themselves offended being classed with hindus? Eitherway, they are just a seperate religion.
>>
>>18597769
Exactly my point. Creating a new religion out of two existing ones won't make a damn difference. Being rid of petty superstitions like religion have done wonders for places like Europe where they used to massacre each other over doctrinal differences. Even China had that Supreme retard who called himself the brother of Christ which caused millions of deaths
>>

>Irrelevant, it wouldn't have invalidated their belief because the quranic verse speaking about it wasn't revealed yet.
Lmao
>>
>>18597774
No, widespread education and social well-being has done wonders for europe. There is a strong correlation of reduced religiosity as material conditions improve. That's why places like africa are becoming the bastions of christianity, and it's most vocal proponents in online discourse. But being an atheist is not something I could vibe with, you feel me?
>>
>>18597789
Wide spread education allows people to realize that religions are superstitions. It's also why like you said Africa is a shithole where they try to open bald men's heads to find gold in them. The only difference between the two is one is less malevolent than the other
>not something I can vibe with
Fair enough
>>
>>18596045
It’s actually pretty easy to create a syncretic religion of Islam and Christianity. What’s crazier is Sikhism which is a combination of Islam and Hinduism which are theological opposites.
>>
>>18597905
Ehh plenty of syncretic movements popped up in India under muslim rule. The sufis there were heavily influenced by the Hindus and the Hindus started placing more emphasis on devotion than deeds and rituals after ideological exchange. The bhakti movement is proof
>>
>>18596202
No, that's Judaism with Noahides.
>>
>>18597938
And what exactly makes you think syncretism isn't judaism?
>>
>>18596041
>>18597774
>>18597797
You simply don't understand religious people if you think that any of it can help. Religious people think other people are wrong, because they believe something else than what they do. Education doesn't help with any of this, it only instills a different dogma. Science and buddhism both outright tell people not to do that, but they can't not do it, as they can't think in any other way.
>>
>>18596041
This is so clearly well meaning but so misguided it's almost funny.
>>18597606
Iirc Sikhism was never meant to bridge the gap between the two religions like this is.
>>18597769
You are exaggerating. They are structurally similar and have a highly related conception of God. Though the germ of that was already in Hinduism. It's also not Hindu at all but I understand you are muslim and as such are not at liberty to see things as they are in this case.
>>
>>18598479
Note: Trying to supercede prior religions is not the same as what Chrislam is trying to do.

Note 2: Sikhism draws from Sufism more than from orthodox Islam proper. And it's motre or less universally agreed it has deeper hindu roots. But you cannot deny the lesser muslim ones.
>>
>>18597521
Do you? ebionites did.
So where did you get the poor argument to bring up the ebionites? Which dawah site/teacher?

>>18597778
Funny how the eternal quran and the pure islam told by the prophets for thousands of years didn't get revealed till the 600's

>>18597905
>easy to create a syncretic religion of Islam and Christianity
Sure if you deny the founding tenets of each. Liberalism is the closest example.
>>
>>18599621
What is the eternal quran
>>
>>18599697
The Quran that is in heaven with Allah. Supposedly the same as the one letter for letter as what Mohammad received.
>>
>>18597796
Widespread education and social well being had been established well enough on the eve of the Great War in Western Europe’s core, yet the populations were still overwhelmingly Christian. It’s the victory of European secularism and liberalism in the World Wars that set the social trend of irreligion. Education and social well being has a peripheral effect, if it were so decisive then the Socialists who were most obsessed with it and the most atheistic wouldn’t be backwards countries. Why is America which is a great deal more religious than most of Europe much greater materially than England, with its even poorer states like Mississippi having a better GDP Per Capita.
>>
>>18601252
Allah's attribute of speech/kalam is eternal and uncreated, his specific instance of speech with respect to temporal unfolding is not. Our recitations, the written copies, the ink and paper, are all created things.

"eternal quran" with the same sequential quraysh arabic-style writing sitting eternally next to Allah is not what athari aqeeda believes in. and asharis certainly don't believe this.
