User: When did Christianity and Islam diverge?
Assistant: Christianity and Islam diverged in the 6th century. They both started out as monotheistic religions, but they had different ideas about the nature of God. In Islam, God is a single entity who created the universe, and is not part of it. In Christianity, God is part of the universe, and created it. This means that Islam believes that God is a perfect being, while Christianity believes that God is a perfect being who is also part of the universe.
