How is Judism, Christianity , Islam brought together under Abraham?

it is not a matter of being "brought togather", it is one religion that began with adam, of which christianity is its 23rd thousand year update, judaism, its 22nd, and islam its 24th. baha'i also is its 26th. abraham was also one of those updates. i think it was ether the one before or after noah, and at any rate before mosses.

^ I have no clue what you are talking about. But I'm sure no Rabbi, Priest, Shaikh or scientist would agree that this hypothetical religion of yours could've been around for 26 thousand years..

It would be so much easier if nobody knew what the bible said...... as it is, atheists do have a much better idea than most christians.

When are atheists going to stop thinking that most Christians in the world regard the Bible as the "direct word of god". The Bible is a collection of writings by a wide variety of humans over thousands of years, and is riddled with contradictions too numerous to list. Some of them are quite inspiring and perhaps inspired, and some are products of circumstances no longer pertinent. They were translated from a language not our own by humans.
I'm in four different Christian bible study groups, and within each, not to mention among them, there's lots of lively difference about what the text means. Vive la difference!
