Synopsis of article
There is only one God, and only one Religion - the eternal Faith of God. Mankind's divine schooling corresponds to our maturing capacity: Abraham declared that God is one, Moses announced that the one God has commandments, and Jesus revealed the one God standing within us with laws.
As in any school, the divine educators propagate two classes of information: disciplinary rules suited to the student's maturity, and advanced knowledge built on the pupil's prior education. Disciplinary rules aren't essential and change from grade to grade; the unchanging pure knowledge is progressively revealed as students advance.
Christian evangelists in grade 6 want to help other students, but they have been held back in school because of failure to learn their lessons. For example, their math is atrocious: 1+1+1=3 (not 1) but they persist with their "Trinity" error.
These children are unfit to tutor 1st graders, much less lecture in the divine university. This is not their fault - they had a substitute teacher (Paul) who mislead them. Had Paul followed the curriculum of the divine educator, Christians might have grasped enough to be promoted to the next grade and learn the lessons of its divine counsellor - Muhammad.
