Hello/salaam/shallom to all--

Have you noticed how when an atheist or non-monotheist begins to preach or give advice, people tend to be more receptive. As soon as a monotheist (Jew, Muslim or Christian) begins to talk about what they believe in reference to an issue, they are subject of attacks: "Please do not come here to preach..." "Keep your beliefs to yourself..." etc.

Recently, I had something to say about so-called law of attraction. I felt it is nothing new, that God Almighty has mentioned what believe in Him can do for us, etc. I mentioned the Bible, the Qur'an, to support what I believe. I did not think I was preaching--just saying what is obvious. Yet, few people got offended. One person delusionally stated he was "god." :p

Why is it that people fear monotheistic faiths? Ok, besides our wars between each other (I feel very shameful!), what is it that people fear our faiths: Islam, Judaism and Christianity? And how do you react to attacks like the one I mention above?

I think that Islam, Judaism and Christianity have much in common due to the fact that it is One God we all worship. At the same time, we do have our differences. Lets not focus on the differences, though. :) How do we reply to those who are collectively against our Allah/YHW/LORD?
 
I personally have a beef with people who define themselves as atheists, but that's just prejudice on my part.

My first thought is at religion and science try to explain very different things. It can very well be that the holy texts are describing scientific principles but that's not where I start in my interpretation.
 
Amica, I would add Parsies, Sikhs, and Baha'is (at least). Until we come to our own mutual peace and understanding, I fear we cannot unite on anything. Sibling rivalry always seems to be a little more destructive than rivalry with an outsider.
