I agree. Thing is though, without Christ, I believe race and culture are insurmountable differences. That was the whole point of Babel, to divide us from our hubris until we could be reconciled to God in Christ.

Yes. Christ's yoke is easy. It solves for so many seemingly intractable problems.
I know some Muslims who claim a similar effect, but they don't have as much opportunity to receive Grace, so they're probably more reliant on common earthly culture from the religious practice and teaching.
Which isn't nothing. A supra-ethnic culture, like that, helps.
yeah, there is a strong focus on doing good business for the glory of Allah in islam. jihad is another means to glorify Allah but among normal muslims business is the supreme expression of it.
there is about equal focus on both sides of it in the qur'an. just like in the bible there is a whole section about law and commerce.
