You want to know how Islamic mythology relates to an Abrahamic religion? Or in other words, you don't comprehend the term 'Abrahamic religion' or understand the connection to Islam, correct? Can you really be that clueless? Abraham is a patriarchal figure in Christianity, Judaeism and Islam. He is considered by Muslims to be an ancestor of Mohammad through his son Ishmael. He was considered to be the progenitor of the Israeilites and the Ishmaelites. And you claim to know anything about "Mu'slam mythologies"? I don't think you even know what a Muslim mythology is.

I mentioned my university degrees in response to your lame attempt at explaining my adverse opinion as being due to a "lack of education." Whether you think it gives me "credence" to comprehend religious issues or whether it impresses you makes no difference to me. .
