That is the common understanding. The Muslims even consider Jews and Christians to have incomplete revelation, as People of the Book. They all have the same prophets, except that the Jews did not heed Jesus, and the Muslims have Mohammed, and the most complete revelation.......

Therein lies the problem. The Devil is truly in the details. Any monotheist would be presumably talking about the same one God. However, they seem to lose this sense of unity in their implementation phase.

I've no idea. Whether he is the same or different. He certainly talks differently in the Koran. I have the feeling OBL doesn't think they are all the same. But I've never spoken with him personally. I read Cosmics post. If you think the other guy has the right God, but is listening to him in the wrong way (kind of like playing him backwards) then it really isn't the same God- since God is all in the interpretation, unless he actually speaks to you personally. So if the book is wrong, or incomplete, the conception of God is different. You can call them the same, but they aren't.
