QUESTION: might i ask.. why are you Christian if you feel it is prophetic? like do you think mohammad is a messenger? if so, then why aren't you muslim?

Answer
Dear Kyle
there are many many spiritual prophetic books allover the world.
I believe that each person has his own spiritual path... As an example there are many many Metro trains in the train staion , all are good , or all are mostly good..... But it is not good enough for any any person to keep exchanging trains especially when they are moving on their paths.
In my opinion ... changing religions and converting from any religion to any other one is not a good idea.
Samy
There is another example also:
Your parents are good respectful people but it is not good that they adopt me , I have my own parents.... And vice versa.
All religions are very good... It is some of the followers... sometimes do not behave good.
