It is you who refuses to listen, not I! 

Christians, Jews and Muslims all believe in the same God, the lord of Abraham, (he has infinite names), yet Christians also associate God with Jesus as well, saying God has a Son. Jews and Muslims do not, although some Jews also associate with God.

As for the name Allah, it is a name that has been around for millenia, Christians and Jews of the middle east have and even today still refer to God as Allah. God isn't even the name he chose for himself (since English was not around back when the Torah and Gospel were revealed, and Muslims believe these were the books sent to the messengers of God Moses and Jesus respectively), since the name God can have plural, as in Gods and is not a definite description of God. In fact many Jews use the word Ilah to refer to God, Ilah literally means deity, see how that closely resembles Allah.

Simply put Muslims believe in God, but hold Jesus as the Messiah, to give him his full name in Islam he is "Christ Jesus Son of Mary", but do not worship Jesus. And yes Jesus is the "messiah", the one who will save mankind at the end of times.

Credit cards are a great thing but require a lot of planning.  I have three (only use one, though), and I charge all of my food, gas, most everything else.  I do not suggest doing this, though.  I managed to pay my way through college (without parents' help) and move and buy a new car without ever accruing debt (paid the car off before driving it off the lot).  You have to understand money before getting into something like this, and I highly recommend paying the card off each month.  It doesn't matter if you are paying 9.9% interest or 24.9% interest, it is all too much.  You can get a money market account that pays 4 to 4.5% interest, and just use that once a month to pay the credit card in full, so instead of paying interest to someone, you let someone pay you.

 Be very careful with debt.  I know people that take seriously 25 years to pay off student loans and get out of the credit card debts that they built up in college.  I feel sorry for people like that because they can generally not afford to buy a house or a new car until after their children have finished college.

 Probally indepth, but how do you avoid paying 25 years for student loans... please share, im 16 and Im willing to listen. 

using other people's money to buy stuff for yourself (debt) is a wonderful thing, if well managed... 

allow me to explain... we just passed through an extended period of the lowest interest rates and inflation rates this country has experienced since the great depression... this was a perfect opportunity to load up on (low interest) debt... an opportunity that will likely never come again (to the extent we just experinenced)... just six months ago I transferred about $6000 onto a 3.99% fixed interest (until paid) CC, but today, I can buy a 24-month CD with a 5.99% interest rate... so, in that window of opportunity, I was not only able to buy stuff using other people's money, I'm able to make money using other people's money (I'll net $122 on the deal)... ain't this country great !!!

a few simple rules apply... 1) select cards with the lowest variable rate you can, but never fall for a teaser rate (one that starts low, but jumps up in a relatively short period of time), 2) don't be afraid to transfer debt from one variable rate CC to another low fixed rate CC (again, don't fall for a teaser), 3) always use your CC to buy assets (besides most cards double the mfg warranty) and limit spending on "non-assets" (such as food, entertainment, gas, etc - for these use a debit card)...

and a side note, paying your credit card purchases off during the grace period, does nothing positive for your credit rating (as some have suggested)...

to answer the OP's question... you don't want to know how much credit card debt I carry - it would make 99.9% of you drop a load... but for me its manageable and a pittance compared to my net worth...
