False perceptions about Atheism and Agnosticism

If someone says they are a practicing Muslim and they sincerely believe that Christ was the son of God and God incarnate who atoned for the sins of His people on the cross and rose on the third day and that God is three in person and one in essence that person is not a practicing Muslim no matter what they claim to the contrary. You do not get to re-define philosophical terms in order to serve your own purposes.

You seem really desperate to win this point, all the while acknowledging that it'll have no discernible impact on the actual core debate at all. I wonder why that is.

Besides which, I'm not changing what I self identify as, nor do I accept your definition; Pocaracas pretty much said what I think in clearer terms. And we've only got the root meaning of the word from its point of origin on our side, but hey!
