  I stopped reading your lengthy piece at paragraph four: You cannot even distinguish the difference between.. Jew and Judaism. Jews / Arabs are a body or group of people. It is dreadful to say: " Jews & Muslims have more similarities than Christians. You can be a Jew without practising Judaism. You can be an Arab
  without being a Muslim. You can be a Jew or Arab and be a Christian. Frankly, nobody gives a fig whether Muslims believes in Jesus. The chap died over six hundred years before the Arab Businessman turned prophet even heard about him. Yet, his followers want us to believe that his version of Jesus should be more authentic than the apostles who actually saw the guy in real life. It is a bit like you the writer telling us about Okomfo Anokye in today's term after he had died long before you were even born.

  In Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbs tend to be Orthodox Christian, Croats tend to be Catholic, and Bosniaks tend to be Muslim. Yet one hardly hears of Bosniaks. Bosniaks are almost always referred to as Muslims.

  It is undeniable that the vast majority of the Arab world — 93% — is Muslim.
  
  So where you have a problem. The author has written an excellent piece.

  Muslim...... two, three , four, five etc wrongs do not make a right. A Muslim.. is a follower of a a certain religion, just as Christians or Buddhists....Jews... can be classified as a race. Judaism.. is a creed, belief or religion. Muslim is not a race, Arab is. The right word should have been Judaism in the third paragraph not Jews. Words matter! Fullstop!

  Judaism can be thought of as being simultaneously a religion, a nationality and a culture. Just go to the web and check your facts.

  Sir, you are damn wrong. Everyone can see that you do not want anybody to criticize Otabil's sermon.

  @Obiba, I can assure you as night follows day that " i
  would not piss on Otabil, if he was on fire". Personally, I cannot stand any of the venal, bogus, despicable blood sucking brigands parading as pastors, prophets etc in Ghana. If you care to know. That said, I believe
  in well researched and written books rather than the
  sort of "pyramid of piffle" that abounds on the Internet. I gave you my honest opinion, and you have
  decided to twist it beyond any reasonable proportion. If
  I had my own way, the likes of Otabil, Obinim, Duncan
  whatever would all be banned. Only main stream
  churches that have stood the test of time such as
  Methodist, Presby, Catholic etc would be allowed in
  Ghana. Conversation over!

  Whatever! The plain fact is that the author's critique of Otabil's sermon is correct.

  Otabil is a disgrace to the Christian fraternity if he can call ABRAHAM THE FATHER OF ALL NATIONS an adulterer. How on earth can you call God's FRIEND AN ADULTERER WHEN THE BIBLE CLEARLY STATED THAT Sarah gave Hagar to Abraham for marriage. Otabil is a bigot.

  The reference to Jews in paragraph 4 is correct.
  
  In the preceding paragraph (3), the writer referred to Muslims not Islam. If he had referred to Islam, you would been right that he should have used the word Judaism.
