Good questions. You have the right curiosity. Jews, Christians, and Muslims all believe they are worshipping the same God, basically.

Before God made Himself known to man, there were lots of gods of different people. But they were all gods of this world, like gods of nature or passion. The Abrahamic God shows up and says hey, I am THE God. They asked his name and He simply said "I am that I am." God is the God of existence itself. Beyond anything we can even properly conceive. God does not exist like anything we conceive. God *is* existence. So that is why the Abrahamic God is unique.

Basically God gives us the story of creation and the fall of man into sin (away from perfection). But God says look, I am going to reveal myself to a few of you and I want you to set the example for mankind. Then I will return and make things good. The Jews say okay, but quickly screw up again and again.

So God says okay if you won't be the example, I'll be the example. And he comes as Jesus to show us perfection and offer us forgiveness if we simply accept it. Jews say nah you're fake and kill him. Jesus rises from the dead and says I TOLD you. Christianity is born.

Muslims come around a while later from a schizo pedophile calling himself a prophet. They proceed to conquer and convert people by the sword. They deny Jesus as God.

Basically Christianity is the true way. Jews reject Christ and Muslims reject Christ.

Jesus teaches us to get over our pride, our ego, and submit our will to God, and He promises peace and happiness if we do that.

Catholic is the right way to go as well, btw. The one true Church that traces back to Jesus.

Read Aquinas or a summary of Aquinas.
