It appears you do not know your Islam well.

Islam does not believe that Jesus was God, but it is fine with Christians who do.  You clearly are not fine with Christians and their trinitarian beliefs even though God in the Quran approves of them as people of the book.

Dare I say this makes you a hypocrite, claiming to be a good Muslim, and certainly a better one in your eyes than OP, and rejecting the Quranic word of God in this matter?[/quote]

I am not a Muslim. To keep a tally, remember that I am not a Christian either.

The Quran is very clear that any religion other than Islam is not acceptable to Allah. Christians do not believe in Islam and are therefore not acceptable to Allah. So your claim that Islam thinks it is fine for Christian to believe Jesus was God does not have any basis in fact. [/quote]

This is complete and utter nonsense and is totally at odds with the history of Islam.  Christians (and Jews)  in the early Islamic empire could convert or pay a tax.  If they chose to pay the tax they were relieved of military service, which some saw as a plus.  They were considered believers in a monotheistic God and people of the book.

While many did convert there were thriving communities of Christians and Jews living under Muslim rule for many, many centuries.  [b]If Islam really thought Christianity and Judaism were not just fine they would have expelled (or killed) anyone who refused to convert[/b].  This is not what happened to Christians and it is not what happened to Jews living under Muslim rule.

And by the way, what's with calling God Allah in English?  If you mean the one, monotheistic God in English you use God.  If you are referring to a different type of god or a pagan god you use a the name of the god like Zeus.  Using Allah in English signifies the God that Muslims believe in is something other than the one monotheistic God.[/quote]

The bolded is how they reserved treatment for Sikhs, Buddhists, Hindus, and Zorastrians. Convert or die.  [/quote]
