What are the differences other than disagreeing on who should have been the caliph some 1300 years ago? (and one side losing a battle at Karbala, plus the ceremonies commemorating said loss).

The fact that the line hasn't moved does not mean there's no activity in the front. hundreds die per day in the trenches.

They'd probably meet halfway, before Muslim overtakes Christian. The Muslim trajectory is up - 6.5% compared to the 4.9% it had in the previous census.

I don't dispute that they see themselves as different and may resort to extreme violence over these differences. I was just questioning the statement that they are "extremely different". Even to themselves, I doubt that is the case. The magnitude of induced violence is not necessarily correlated to the magnitude of the difference, and in fact, as demonstrated in your example, may even be inversely correlated.
