"How about we be concerned about Glorifying God and less about conspiracy? Spread the Word of God till he returns and less time on "figuring out when He will return"? More time on spreading God's word less time on "who the anti-christ is"?
I have found that witnessing in today's world requires that one make some sense out of what they believe and why
People just do not typically accept anything else
In order to do this thing one must be able to explain why another should consider and buy in ... if you cannot, the chances of success are very limited .... it should not be this way .... but it is
Understanding certain biblical subjects is essential and in many cases details must be provided .... and you had better know how to go about it .... it is a daunting task to say the least and not many are up to it
So .... study yourself approved for the adventure and be able to relate the Lord's Word to historical and current conditions
There is much confusion among those of the professing "church" today and this makes the effort much more complex
I am a battle hardened prophecy teacher and must be able to make the Lord's prophetic word relevant for people to ponder over [2 Peter 1:16-21] .... this is a foundational linchpin of the entire witnessing process

I didn't know there were several gods 
There is only one God, our creator. Thus, per definition, all religions worship either him or the devil
(that is, unless they worship mankind, which isnt much better than option nr 2).
I think one should be careful in judging though. If you remove the extremist from all religions, who knows, mabe muslims live closer to Gods way than Christians, or maybe they miss the mark entirely. Having just returned from a mainly muslim but very open country (Morocco), I find them to act very relaxed (although I suspect that what goes on inside the home is different from what goes on in the streets, just like in "Christian" countries).

By definition Christian is Christ follower. Then the real Christian must close to the Lord.
Real Islam must follow to the Quran, include to kill infidel, I don't know if it consider extremist, they follow the real quran.
Ecclesiastes 9
4 For to him that is joined to all the living there is hope: for a living dog is better than a dead lion.
5 For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten.
6 Also their love, and their hatred, and their envy, is now perished; neither have they any more a portion for ever in any thing that is done under the sun.

muslims god approves of what they do and how they do it. the deity they worship has no relationship to the one I pray to.
Jews that reject Christ may pray to the same God I do, but He doesn't hear them. There is only one way to heaven and that is thru The Son. God lends no ear to those who reject the sacrifice His Son made for them.

It's not unsound logic. Technically, Judaism, Christianity and Islam share the same foundational characters, way back when;Adam, Eve, Abel, Cain, Abraham, Moses, Noah, Jacob, Isaac, Ishmael, Jesus. Judaism and Islam aren't Trinitarian, and a large number of Christians aren't trinitarians either, yet the three religions differ in doctrine quite a bit. You make a good analogy about this with denominations; even when a denomination of Christianity's tenets or doctrines are fundamentally different from another's, no Christian would say that the two Christians from respective denominations don't pray to the same God, even though their fundamental doctrines differ. So, if the God wh ois prayed to can be the same God for two people with different beliefs or doctrines about him, then perhaps the God which exists never changes, and it is only the beliefs of the individual which change. By this logic, Islam's God and Christianity's God are one and the same; it is just the viewpoint each respective member of the religions hold of him which differs.
Interesting thoughts. I've thought a lot along these lines myself.
