Is the God of the Bible the same as or equivalent to the god of other religions?
Lilwolf53
Yes and No.
He's (it's) the same god for Jews, Christians, and Mohammedans (and related sects like Mormons),
but bears little resemblance to the god (or chief god) of most religions.
A single god is a rarity (among gods that is).

I assume you mean the Christian Bible. The Old Testament is basically the same as the Jewish Bible. The god of Judaism is also the god of Christianity. But when it comes to the New Testament, only Christians believe that Jesus Christ is God (in the flesh).

∙ 9y agoAs apparent here, the answer depends very much on the personal belief and religious tradition of the person giving the answer. Unlike questions of empirical matters (mathematics, physics, chemistry, etc.) questions of religious matters cannot be demonstrated or proved. So this question does not have a single "correct" answer.
A great many Jews, Christians and Muslims agree that they worship the same God, that is, the God of Abraham, Moses and all the prophets. At the same time, there are other Jews, Christians and Muslims who would vehemently disagree. Similarly, many people of faith view the deities of other religions as valid perceptions of the God of The Bible as understood by people of different cultures, while others find such views not only incorrect but offensive.

∙ 9y agoNo, as the Bible makes it quite clear only He is God and there are no others. He walked with many from Adam to Enoch to Moses and came to live among mankind for 36 1/2 years as Jesus - physically demonstrating/proving His divinity:
Isaiah 46:8-10New International Version (NIV)
8 Remember this, keep it in mind,
take it to heart, you rebels.
9 Remember the former things, those of long ago;
I am God, and there is no other;
I am God, and there is none like me.
10 I make known the end from the beginning,
from ancient times, what is still to come.
I say, My purpose will stand,
and I will do all that I please.

Christianity is said to receive it's morals and follow the stories in the bible.

But the old testament and it's 'god' yawha (not sure on spelling) is the foundation of the 3 monotheistic religions of Christianity, judaism and Islam. 3 religions from the same groundings with totally different belief systems!?

How does denying same-sex marriage rights violate religious freedom?
Because same-sex marriage is a belief among homosexuals, therefore denying same-sex marriage is denying their beliefs.Alternate Viewpoint:Some organized religions support same-sex marriage and some oppose it. By banning same-sex marriage, the government is preventing some religions from marrying people it wants to marry, while siding with other religions that don't want members of other religions to marry.
Why is it that different religions that believe in the same god cant get along?
This happens since all religions are trying to recruit as many followers as possible and there is always one that gets in the other's way, for example, Jews say that Jesus Christ was not the son of god and that bothers and gets in the way of the holy teachings of the Christian Bible
