Description
Summary:The term ›Abrahamitic religions‹ is often heard within the dialog of the three religions, which seems to indicate that Abraham is an identification figure for all of them. In fact, Abraham has entirely different, and unrelated, roles to play in Judaism, Christianity and Islam. What really connects the three religions is that they are monotheistic. In spite of the fact that Jews and Muslims have a critical view of the Christian trinity, monotheism is the true connecting element between them. One should therefore no longer speak of ›Abrahamitic religions‹ but rather of the three ›monotheistic religions‹.
