My family are christian but I am not as when I would question anything the people at church would say "where did you get that from" and I would tell them which part of the bible and they would say "don't your parents tell you it's rude to be disrespectful to adults." after hearing that for  more than 12 years I thought these people don't even know their religion. So I set about exploring all the different religions I came across. Yes all muslims do speak arabic as that is what their prayers are spoken in and you are right and wrong in thinking that a name is not necessarily important as long as you pray to the god and not to someone else  and he does say call me by name so that I can answer you .So you can see that aspect is important you can call god The forgiving, the one, the all encompassing, the giver of life and death ,the all seeing, and their are plenty more. Would you like someone calling you by any other name than what yours is? Unless it's a nickname but then you still know it's yours.As for the other part of your question arabic is an original language and all words are written the same when you write that is why it hasn't been corrupt through the ages. So you can ask any person you come across and they will tell you the same. But make sure their an arab as people get mixed up with who is and who isn't .And as for your last bit I don't know why you wrote that because I didn't write anything like that.Jesus was a prophet not god and I did not state otherwise . I hope you also realise that this is my opinion based on the religion that I follow which is Islam and I also believe that their is no compulsion in religion so you should go your way and I will go mine as everyone has a right to practice what they like and do what they want within their own I hope that doesn't sound harsh as I'm not trying to be but writing it is not the same as speaking to some one so please read it in a soft way as no offence is meant to be given.Just my opinion. I hope to see all god fearing people in heaven

First of all I am a christian orthodox so many of the "general" things about Christianity is far from what we stand for. Second of all I come from Macedonia (former Yugoslavia) and I kno what religion does to people. The same people that fight for islam (in macedonia and the balkans) are the same that during their time off fighting spend their time drinking, using drugs, mafia, prostitution and murder. Now how is that posible?????? I am talking from a first hand exp I know those people they are my neighbours, and friends.

From the 400000 muslims in macedonia less than 1% speaks arabic fluent. I wa told that most people dont even know the word properly or the mining so they pray in albanian or whatever.

in the orthodox church we pray in macedonian as no one speeks the old language and I dont fear that god wont understand because I dont speak latin or ols slav language
