The scripture may be a wash unless we include hadith (which many don't) but the historical examples of prophets is significant.

But I don't think it wld have much bearing on reality. Religion is an evolving lived thing & its qualities fluctuate.

Most of it is kind of a wash, granted, but do you agree the difference between prophets is vast?

Yes, I've said so. If ppl lived as Muhammad did or as Jesus did, latter would be much more peaceful.

OK, cool so if everything is close to a wash except for a vast difference between their prophets, that's significant right?

Tried to clarify. Religion is more than leading characters & texts & doctrines. It's mostly practice & values & enforcement.

By 'religion,' I am referring to the overall ethos and behaviours stemming from it every bit as much as primary sources.
