As you say, the Muslims of Islam have three holy cities, of which Jerusalem is only the third. The Jews only look to one holy city, Jerusalem, which the Muslims are holding hostage. Wouldn't it be good for the Muslims to give up Jerusalem to the Jews in an effort to obtain real peace?

Traditional Chinese religion, though not Abrahamic, did have gods, therefore they were not atheists.

Who says that atheists and Muslims cannot work together?
I am atheist and one of my employers is Muslim.

That's just brilliant; get Muslims to give up one of their holy cities.
Does every Muslim get to vote on it?
(Wouldn't a 50/50 split be great ... another religious schism)

But for arguments sake - let's pretend the whole of Islam gives up a holy city.
Which one of the Trinity will you give up?
The Holy Spirit ... doesn't seem to do much.

Why should the Muslims have 3 holy cities and the Jews none? The Jews have been giving up land in an attempt to gain peace with the Muslims for years. Why then should not the Muslims give their least holy city back to the Jews in an attempt to gain real peace? The Muslims will still have their 2 most holy cities and the Jews are likely to be satisfied with having back their one holy city.

Christians should not have to get involved with this because Vatican City has been the most holy city for Christians for centuries. Christians are content to be tourist in Jerusalem and pay their money for site seeing.

You are right. Why not building a synagogue of the Golgata Hill (spelling?). Or why not on the Mount of Olives? Turn the christian churches into synagogues altogether. Noone should bother. There are no christian places in Jerusalem worth holding holy. Right?

No no, I actually agree with you. Jerusalem is not holier to christians than Dallas in Texas is. Isn't that your opinion, that it's the Vatican City that is the Christian holy place number one?

I try, I really try, I agree with you, don't you see?

So holy places is holy even if they are in Jerusalem? Is this your stand?
Then the same applies to the moslims having holy places in Jerusalem, one of the holy cities for them.

Have you changed your mind all of a sudden, or are you talking with a split tongue?

And the moron thing you like to utter. You are the moron one, you have told us that yourself. Whenever you act like a moron, then you are a moron. Stop acting like one and you will be given respect. Don't you want respect? Is that not important for you?

You can't be as ignorant as you make out. But in case you are that ignorant, let me educate you so that you are no longer ignorant about this.

The Jews in Israel have no objections to there being some Christians Churches in Israel. However, they want to rebuilt their holy temple on that most holy location in Jerusalem where it was before and the Muslems have built a big dome building there and will not move it to spite the Jews.

So a holy place is sometimes not holy, and another holy place is the holiest in the world? What if the holy place is a christian holy place? Is it holier than other holy places or is it as holy as others?

If a religion dismissing Jesus Christ as being divine, is this a better religion than the christian religion or not?
If a religion holds Jesus Christ as one of the true prophets, is this a better religion than one who dismisses Jesus Christ as a divine being?
Or is it not important what religion it is? If someone hold something for holy, then it deserves the respect of being holy regardless?
