[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a non-Christian (raised Muslim, now atheist) but to me the single basic fundamental belief of Christianity is that you believe in the divinity of Jesus. That Jesus is either fully or partially divine/godly. Even the other things that seem to basic, have variation in different branches and sects.

A fair amount of information concerning Jesus and his life/purpose overlaps in Islam, but the main point of difference is that Muslims do not believe Jesus was divine. 
Would any Christians disagree with this as the most overarching, uniform principal?

I consider myself a Christian although most fundie-type Christians would probably disagree.  I am the Unity PP.  I believe that Jesus was God's son and therefore "divine", but I also believe we are all part of God and therefor all divine.  I believe Jesus was God in flesh - that perfect example of love that we are all supposed to strive to be.  The divine lives in me. And I am a part of that loving source.  "The Christ" in me always beholds "The Christ" in you no matter what your personal spirituality.[/quote]
