I never claimed once, in any of my posts on this thread that they were non-fiction. And your arguement about their history doesn't dispute their subject matter. You have no idea what I believe.
The subjects of the books are based around the same God, your just looking for an arguement and straw manning my original post

Christianity and Islam are different, but they share many prophets, stories and beliefs. To this extent, Islam worships the God of Abraham, just as Christians and Jews do - despite any differences such as the final text in Revelations, as you like to point to. Put simply, you all worship the same God, but you all have different interpretations of it.

Please link where I said they were the word of God?
You are obviously troubled by religion and assume all people who want to speak about it have the same intentions.

What percentage of "followers" would you say really adhere to the faiths, I would venture to say the moment you build a giant church that is designed to make money there is little way to find God inside of it.
And a huge number of churches are erected with the sole idea of making money and then delivering God's message, so if that is where you seek God, there are limited chances for you getting the real message.
The thing about companies is that it is important to keep people from shopping at other companies

This doesn't matter, the book is written with the Jewish God as the father of Jesus. It doesn't matter who you think the author used as a character model. It doesn't matter if you believe what it says.
It is written to be read as being the same God as the Jews.

But both groups say they follow the same God (Jews and Muslims), you are one saying they don't.....
