Christianity and Islam make concrete historical assertions about people, places, and events. That makes them testable.

When we hear the word jihad today, it immediately sparks strong emotions. For some, it conjures up images of terrorism and holy war.

In today’s religious and political climate, Christian support for Israel is often oversimplified or outright maligned by both secular critics and some within the Christian community, particularly those outside the United States, who associate it exclusively with fringe eschatological views.
