I agree.
We're talking about similarities, not that they're the same thing.

Jesus was a messenger of Allah. Allah reinforced him with the holy spirit. Though this doesn't make Jesus Lord God, it certainly makes him important. One would say the next best thing; others would say he is the same.

And Allah allows free will? Interesting. Thanks for pointing it out for us. There is yet another parallel of Christianity and Islam.
