    People say the Islamic god and the Christian god are the same god, but Christians and Muslims can’t even agree on what their god is within their own religions, hence all the sectarianism, so I don’t really buy that.

      That like asking if movie Superman is the same character as comic book Superman. It’s entirely a matter of opinion.

        Then you have the Hindu gods which is basically like the less popular 3/4 of the Marvel catalog.

        I can make this joke, someone else will have to do the greeks.
