I can't edit my post, but one great resource on this is St. John of Damascus. He referred to Islam as a heresy. So did St. Nikon of Salamis. I could talk about Sufism and such but the Saints actually highlight where and how Islam took from Christianity and how it spawned out of it. I might post the resources since the Saints can speak better than my own ramblings on the subject.

I don't see the button to edit it for some reason.

EDIT: I can edit this post however

I noticed that we can only edit the most recent post in each thread. Isn't that intentional?

I thought editing was set to a 30-day limit to prevent "regret deleting" ​​​​​years later. Will check

Wait, I can still edit that one. Looks like it is a timer after all.

I thought perhaps you can't edit a post if it's been quoted. But I see that isn't the case.
