Is Christian Truth Different Than Islamic Truth?

Good question, short answer:  no.  Here's why.  There is only 1 truth, arrived at by as many paths as there are people in the world.  How can this be, you ask?  Well, there IS a catch, as you may have guessed.  The catch is that the paths all must contain one common element, and that is the Word Incarnate, a.k.a. Jesus of Nazareth.  Although none of us gets to choose where our paths begin, including those of other beliefs, we do control them with our choices and intentions throughout our lives.
Think of humanity as a map.  Every person on earth is a road on the map.  No two are alike, every single one starts at a different point, but they can intersect, they can overlay each other for short stretches or for long, they can detour, they can merge, they can stop, they can start again.  Some are shorter than others, some are much straighter while others tend to meander around.  For true Christians, however, they all arrive at one final destination, and that destination is the doorway to eternal life and truth.  The name of the doorway is Jesus, it is very well-lit and easy to find, there is no toll or secret password.  All you have to do is set your life to the built-in autopilot feature, accessible through your active deployement of Christian faith, hope, and love, and you will arrive unscathed and none the worse for the wear.  Happy traveling!
