Retraction ...get some here Big Grin

After discussing this with my Christian & mathematician wife and VOID earlier I now concede that to use percentages is some sort of abomination in mathematical terms. I shall no longer use the term 100% Man & God, because that is incorrect. You can only ever have 100% of anything.

Whilst Jesus the man was God on earth.. he was not also 100% God. He was, according to the doctrine I follow, fully God and fully man.

Like VOID brought up... we have a soul, and we are physical being. My soul is me, and my body is it's physical container. I'm my immortal soul, but my body is mortal.

So, in case you're interested: my answer to VOIDs question above is... My religious reasoning goes like this.... given a and b, a makes more sense than b, so I'll assume a. There's usually strong reason to assume a. VOID informs me that this is Bayesian reasoning.
