OK I understand that you disagree with the conditions. I thought they were implied in the OP, otherwise this whole conversation was a poorly formed straw man.
So other than the presuppositions we also disagree with the first question. If you're not going to suspend belief on the presuppositions given in the argument, why bother with answering at all?
Given the the presuppositions are conditionally true (in that it's just for arguments sake, not that you hold those beliefs) why can't Christ be 100% man and 100% God?
believe it is a valid question. I understand the standpoint that we can't be 200% of something so I'll attempt to rephrase.
Given the the presuppositions are conditionally true (in that it's just for arguments sake, not that you hold those beliefs) if Christ is 100% Himself, can that personage contain both the nature of being 100% like a man and 100% a part of God?

"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
