I think the fundamental differences between Islam and Christianity on Jesus is the idea of Jesus being the son of god.
Christians believe that Jesus was the son of god, Muslims (which do consider Jesus a prophet) however believe that Jesus cant be the son of god because a god cant have a son who is also a god.
For an atheist like myself it can seem really flabbergasting that actually wars and millions have died due to the above dilemma. Especially considering both Christians and Muslims (as well as jews) basically worship the same one god, but all disagree on exactly "how" that god should be worshiped and his words intercepted.
Personally I dont really see much difference between religion and nation nowdays. Whats that it says on the dollar bill "One nation under god". *sigh*
